Question

activity include insurance?I dont want to take out the"extra cover "before I go because I may not want to do the activities,therfore wasting money.I would of thought that the people who are offering the activity by law will have some sort of liability insurance which will cover me??positive responses would be very appreciated...Brian

Answer 1

in Egypt , you wont be covered by any insurance for the activities you mention.

we have a way of being fatalistic .

if you insist , get insured in your country .

but nothing will happen , bec nothing ever happens .

Answer 2

Using a Jetski is not covered in your standard package of insurance.

If you scuba dive with a reputable company that have proven safety records and something for you to sign then good but usually these are not covered either.

Watersports generally have a premium.

Camel rides are ok though, never seen a premium for those in my life!

Enjoy.

Answer 3

Hi Brian.

Do not under any circumstances trust any operators out there - your legal comeback on them is minimal and they know it. Get fully insured before you go, it doesn't cost that much and it will be reliable.

Don't try too hard to save a tenner, make sure it includes all hospital bills and return to the UK.

The odds against you having abad accident are huge, i know, but if you are going to insure at all then go the whole way.

Enjoy, Steve.

Answer 4

Just don't fall off the camel and keep a sharp look-out for crocodiles. If you hit a swimmer while jetskiing you will need a lot of insurance.
