High Places Travel Insurance

You must be insured to travel on a High Places trekking holiday. New regulations mean we can no longer sell insurance direct but we have arranged travel insurance with specialist Insurance Brokers Campbell Irvine, underwritten by the UK's largest travel insurer, AXA Insurance (UK) plc*.

This insurance has been specifically designed to cover trips booked with High Places. If you choose not to take our recommended insurance then we require confirmation that you have an alternative policy that provides cover for the activities on your trip including helicopter rescue and repatriation.

Some useful information
For insurance purposes Jordan and Iceland are classed as 'Europe' and Greenland and Svalbard are classed as 'Worldwide'.

If you live in USA or Canada, you will need to use the 'Worldwide incl North America' rates.

If you are travelling via USA or Canada you may need to use the 'Worldwide incl North America' rates, depending on the duration of your stopover.

To arrange cover or to obtain a quote please contact Campbell Irvine direct.
