Adventure Confidently

All MT Sobek guests are subject to the payment and cancellation terms agreed to at the time of reservation. This includes any guest who opts to cancel an operable trip due to COVID-19. Please refer to your invoice for the terms and conditions that apply to your booking. We recommend that all guests purchase insurance.

We no longer require proof of COVID-19 vaccination from guests, guides or other staff. We recommend our guests to be fully vaccinated and to always purchase travel protection.  

We recommend checking with the embassy periodically for the latest updates. Your Adventure Coordinator will provide updates when they send your final details email about 3-4 weeks before departure.

If anyone exhibits flu-like symptoms on a trip, as a courtesy, we recommend wearing a mask when indoors and in close proximity to your fellow travelers. If you are concerned about another guest’s flu-like symptoms, you may opt to wear a mask or distance yourself as needed. MT Sobek will continue to follow any regional requirements.

As of trips departing June 1, 2023 onwards, we will no longer require our guests to test for COVID-19 if they exhibit flu-like symptoms during the trip. As a courtesy, we recommend wearing a mask when indoors and in close proximity to your fellow travelers. If you are concerned about another guest’s flu-like symptoms, you may opt to wear a mask or distance yourself as needed.

Should anyone in the group test positive for COVID 19 during the trip, they will be subject only to local protocols. As a reminder, there is an assumption of risk when traveling in general and traveling within a group. We encourage you to review our Code of Conduct, to ensure everyone is treated with kindness and respect.  

In the event a physician recommends you discontinue travel or not join your MT Sobek trip due to COVID-19 or other illnesses, we recommend trip insurance to help protect your travel investment. Learn more about Arch RoamRight’s Travel Insurance here. Many of the travel restrictions and requirements no longer in effect, COVID-19 will be treated the same as any other illness during the claims adjudication process. As with any illness, when filing a claim, an Attending Physician Statement (APS) form will be required defining the diagnosis, treatment and the medical condition as it relates to travel.

Most insurance providers have international assistance that can help with quarantine arrangements, and can advise you what you need to initiate a claim. This is the best place to start.
