Tour Guide Insurance

Our dedicated Travel Risk Professionals can arrange tour guide liability insurance which helps protect your business and your customers.

What is tour guide insurance?

Tour guide insurance is a specialist form of cover designed to meet the needs of professional tour guides.

Your duty as a tour guide operator is to place your customer in the heart of the experiences they desire. However, in order to perform your responsibilities and to ensure your customer has a great time you are responsible for ‘proper performance of the contract’, this means that you can be held liable if aspects of the trip or holiday don’t go to plan, which can include the actions or inactions of subcontractors & suppliers.

Our broking specialists have many years of travel industry and insurance experience and know that not all tour guides have the same insurance requirements.

We take the time to thoroughly understand your business, processes, the tours you arrange for clients and where they are located, and how you get clients.

Through building that relationship with you, our modular tour operator policy provides our brokers with the flexibility to design your insurance programme around the needs of your business.
