Protection for High-Risk, Contact, and Aerial Sports Travelers

From skydiving and mountaineering to MMA tournaments, motocross, and heli-skiing, Smarter Travel Insurance provides specialist travel protection for extreme sports enthusiasts, athletes, and teams.
Our policies are built for travelers who push boundaries — covering aerial, combat, and high-risk adventure activities often excluded by standard insurance plans.

Perfect for professional competitors, thrill-seekers, and organized sports travelers needing worldwide coverage that keeps up with the action.

Why You Need Extreme Sports Travel Insurance

Extreme sports come with unique risks — high speeds, unpredictable conditions, and intense physical exposure. Traditional travel insurance often excludes these sports entirely, leaving travelers unprotected.
Smarter Travel Insurance’s Extreme Sports Travel Insurance fills that gap with tailored coverage for high-adrenaline, contact, and aerial sports across the globe.

Extreme sports travel insurance can provide:

  • Refund protection for prepaid tours, passes, or classes

  • Emergency medical and evacuation benefits for injuries

  • Equipment and baggage protection

  • Trip cancellation or interruption coverage

  • Missed-connection protection for weather or airline delays

  • Optional upgrades for higher-value gear

  • Group and family plans under one policy

  • 24/7 global emergency assistance

Whether you’re based in one country or moving between several, these policies are designed to support your lifestyle with international flexibility.

Key Benefits of Extreme Sports Coverage

Coverage features vary by provider, but most plans offer the following:

Emergency Medical & Evacuation Assistance
