Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is crucial to join the Everest Base Camp trek via Jiri.

Not only this, but travel insurance will also come in handy in case you lose your luggage, face flight cancellation, or for medical coverage.
There is no hospital in the Everest region, and any big injury or sickness may require air evacuation to a hospital in Kathmandu. Without travel insurance, it gets tough for us to provide air evacuation to you on time.
