I think they have insurance that covers the people in the group, plus they said your health insurance card would cover you in Israeli hospitals. Think I'm good. It's just for health, yes?Jaekus wrote:

Travel insurance covers not just medical but also theft of personal belongings, if your travel plans are disrupted beyond your control (they will pay for accom and/or additional travel as required - caused by events outside of your control of course, like natural disaster etc.), if you or someone with you dies or is ill to the point they cannot travel any more, if a vehicle you are driving is in an accident... few other things I can't think of off the top of my head.Poseidon wrote:

@OP:
Drink bottled water from trusted source, or anything but water. Walk about in at least semi-dress (try not to look like you're on vacation). Don't lose your passport. Bone up on local taboo. Be polite and don't say shit like "IN AMERICA, SHIT'S LIKE [this]." What pisses Americans off about Californians pisses the world off about Americans.
So he can't brag that In N Out is the best food on the planet? What about the animal fries?!?!?

Ok, so it sounds like your medical and means of getting home are sorted already, and the other incidentals don't seem to be an issue. I'd agree and say insurance probably isn't necessary.Poseidon wrote:

Pack light. Pack what you think you'll need then halve it.
If you have any electronics, phones, laptops, shaver, cameras etc. make sure you get the correct adapters.
If you have anything even questionable to declare at customs do so.
