Yes — you should always purchase travel protection for our trips. While it’s not included in the tour price, securing coverage helps protect your travel investment and provides peace of mind throughout your journey.

We strongly recommend purchasing Cavalry Travel Protection through our partners at Redpoint. The Cavalry policy offers one of the most comprehensive lists of covered reasons for trip cancellation and trip interruption, including injury, illness, death, and many other circumstances.
Please note: If VBT is unable to operate your tour for any reason, we cannot provide compensation for canceled travel arrangements (such as flights, trains, or car services) not booked through VBT. Cavalry Travel Protection allows you to increase coverage amounts to include these additional arrangements.

The Redpoint “Cavalry” policy offers one of the most extensive lists of covered reasons for trip cancellation and trip interruption, including injury, illness, death, and many other unforeseen events.
We encourage you to visit our Travel Protection page to review the full list of coverages included with the policy.
Please note: If you choose not to purchase travel protection, you are accepting full responsibility for any costs incurred due to unexpected circumstances.

Please note that air routings are not guaranteed and may change at any time. VBT is not responsible for airline cancellations or delays. If such disruptions occur, you should work directly with the airline to ensure timely arrival at your destination.

VBT does not offer refunds for any portion of the trip missed due to flight delays or cancellations. These types of unforeseen events can interrupt or shorten your trip, which is why we strongly recommend purchasing Travel Protection. This coverage can help offset financial impacts, and you should file a claim with your provider if needed.
