Yes, to protect your investment we do recommend that you purchase trip cancellation insurance and travel medical insurance. If you have to cancel or cut short your trip because of illness, injury or death (to you or to a family member), trip cancellation insurance will cover most of your payments for both air and land costs. If you sustain an injury or other health issue during your trip, additional travel medical insurance will ensure you can cover the costs of medical treatment abroad and repatriation.
