Flavors of DordogneTravel Insurance

As a service to its travelers, Princeton University automatically provides Princeton Journeys participants traveling internationally* with basic medical, accident, and evacuation coverage under a group emergency travel protection plan. This specialized group policy, provided through Meyer and Associates as TripMate, Inc., underwritten by United States Fire Insurance Company, and purchased on behalf of each named traveler individually, is intended to provide minimal levels of protection while you are traveling on this program. The policy covers basic services up to the maximum levels listed below:

  • Accident and Sickness Medical Expenses up to $5,000
  • Emergency Evacuation and Repatriation up to $200,000
  • Accidental Death and Dismemberment up to $5,000

This insurance does not include benefits for participant cancellation. It is highly recommended that travelers supplement this basic protection with their own additional coverage, as well as trip cancellation/interruption or baggage coverage. Meyer and Associates, the company from whom Princeton Journeys purchases the Emergency Assistance Policy, offer various travel and cancellation insurance plans for Princeton Journeys travelers.

*Please note, only US residents are covered under the group emergency travel plan. Foreign national travelers should purchase insurance separately. Princeton Journeys does not purchase insurance for domestic programs.

Given the remoteness of the Galapagos Islands, we strongly recommend the purchase of travel insurance with medical coverage, including flight evacuation. Without coverage, it may be difficult and at great cost to guests to obtain emergency medical assistance while on the islands. Reference the travel insurance suggestion that accompanied the invoice confirmation you received after making your reservation.

For the convenience of our guests, this program includes coverage for evacuation and transportation services to the nearest appropriate hospital once hospitalized, with a $100,000 limit per traveler. For additional information, reference the travel insurance suggestion that accompanied the invoice confirmation you received after making your reservation.
