Inka's Empire Tours includes travel insurance for guests through the age of 59 years (over that age, there is a supplementary fee). U.S. and Canadian residents are covered by Travel Guard's ProtectAssist Gold policy. International residents are advised to purchase coverage in their home country and will receive a five percent reduction in the tour price. Our policy even reimburses guests who cancel their tour due to termination of employment or layoff from a job held for at least one year. For questions about the travel insurance and how it applies to your particular circumstances, please call Travel Guard (1-800-826-4919) or the company you have selected in your own country. You may wish to consider Air Flight Insurance for your international tickets. Inka's can include it for an additional cost of 5% of the fare.
Why Inka's includes travel insurance
There are hundreds of circumstances that could cause you to cancel your tour, return home early or, even worse, force you to seek emergency medical treatment while traveling. To demonstrate the importance of travel insurance, here are ten common examples of what could go wrong.*
1. You could lose money you've invested in your tour, such as nonrefundable deposits, if bad weather conditions cause delay or cancellation of your trip.
2. You may have to cut your tour short and return home for an emergency, such as an unexpected illness or death in the family, forcing you to lose the remaining pre-paid portion of your tour and pay a ticket change fee for your return travel arrangements.
3. Your luggage could be lost, delayed or stolen, forcing you to purchase additional clothes, essentials or even prescription medications.
4. The airline, cruise line or tour operator with which you are scheduled to travel suddenly ceases operation or goes on strike, leaving you with no option but to cancel your trip... with no recourse for reimbursement.
5. Most major health plans in the U.S., Medicare and Medicare supplements offer little or no medical expense protection outside the U.S. (Medicare and Medicaid provide no coverage outside the U.S.)
6. Due to an accident or a sudden illness, you, a family member or companion may require emergency medical evacuation while traveling. Many of U.S. health plans, including HMOs and PPOs, will not cover emergency medical evacuations.
7. You could run into major travel delays, forcing you to miss a portion of your tour and be forced to pay additional lodging expenses while you wait.
8. You could be forced to evacuate your accommodations due to a named hurricane or other weather conditions, cutting your tour short... with no recourse for reimbursement for the remaining portion of your trip.
9. You could lose your important travel documents, stranding you while traveling abroad.
10. You could be forced to cancel your tour because a terrorist incident occurred in a city within 30 days of your planned arrival... with no recourse for reimbursement.
*These scenarios are offered only as examples. Insurance is underwritten by American Home Assurance Company, a New York insurance company which is a member of the AIG Companies, with its principal place business at 70 Pine Street, New York, NY 10270. It is currently authorized to transact business in all states and the District of Columbia. NAIC No. 19380. This is only a brief description of the insurance coverages available.

If there are any conflicts between this document and the Policy the Policy shall govern. Not all coverages available in all states.
