We believe that safety and enjoyment are equally important when booking a tour with Adaptable Travel. It is therefore why it is a condition of booking with us that you have obtained adequate and valid specialist school group travel insurance for the entire duration of your trip.

Additionally cover for over 100 sports and activities are included as standard under this group policy and full details are available within the activity guide lists in the group policy documents.

A full copy of the insurance policy and statement of insurance document can be viewed in the below links. It is important you read the insurance policy prior to completing your booking so you are fully aware of the levels of cover provided and are confident that the policy will meet your needs.
Important Conditions Relating to Health
Any beneficiary of the Endsleigh travel insurance policy, who is under 18 years of age, who are UK residents and travelling to countries in Europe only, will be exempt from the Important Conditions Relating to Health detailed in the group policy and any pre-existing health conditions will be automatically covered.
If you are not eligible for the above, please find the Pre-Existing Medical Conditions Guide to establish the Important Conditions Related to Health.
General conditions and general exclusions apply to the whole of the group policy and all levels of cover.
Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC)
We highly recommend that all travellers obtain a UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) if travelling to countries in Europe. The UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) allows British nationals access to statutory healthcare in Europe at a reduced cost or sometimes for free.
It is important to note that the GHIC is not a replacement for travel insurance. The GHIC may not cover the cost of all medical treatment or repatriation, whereas the Endsleigh travel insurance policy will cover extended costs under Section 2 – Emergency medical and other expenses.
For more information about the UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC), you can visit the gov.uk website here: Apply for a UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
