INSURANCE

Nobody likes to think of things going wrong when arranging a motorbike rental or motorcycle tour in New Zealand so it’s something that often gets forgotten; but it’s very important especially in the event of a cancellation, injury or sickness when the resultant costs can be quite high.

To that end we would always recommend a suitable travel insurance policy be purchased before arriving in New Zealand.

Personal travel insurance:

It is vital that you have appropriate travel insurance which offers cover while motorcycling. BikeRoundNZ, its Agents, Assigns and Contractors accept no responsibility for a client’s failure to arrange appropriate cover. Please also note that cover is often void if a helmet is not being worn. We strongly recommend you cover yourself with travel insurance in case of accident and to ensure that if your personal circumstances change meaning you have to cancel your costs are covered. A travel insurance policy which specifically covers ‘rental vehicle excess’ is highly recommended if possible.
