How much does canyoning travel insurance cost?
Our canyoning travel insurance varies depending on length of trip, if you opt for single or an annual policy, plus the level of cover you select, either bronze, silver or gold.
Canyoning is often done as a one-off activity during your holiday, however many standard travel insurance policies don’t cover it. In this instance you can opt for an Activity TopUp cover, as a bolt-on to your existing policy.
Our TopUp cover to include canyoning starts from £27.16* for one-day cover in Europe.

Why do you need Canyoning Insurance?
Canyoning is potentially a dangerous sport with escape from the sides of canyons often impossible, and completion of the descent the only option.
