Your guide to adventure travel coverage.

When you’re traveling, your full publicly-funded healthcare doesn’t travel with you. And when ‘high-risk’ activities are involved, it’s especially important to understand the fine print of your travel insurance policy. Our adventure travel insurance provides peace of mind, ensuring you can focus on creating memories, not worrying about what-ifs.

We cover:

Pre-existing conditions 

“High-risk” activities such as mountaineering, mountain biking, backcountry skiing, rock climbing, motocross, ice-climbing and more

Single or multiple trips

Visitors to Canada and landed immigrants

Returning Canadians

Trip delays and cancellations

Coverage across Canada.

Baggage Insurance

This insurance covers the loss, damage or theft of your personal effects and baggage while on your trip.
