Fantastic company, wouldn’t go anywhere else! Great customer service and competitive pricing – 5 stars from me!
Outstanding service! The support provided when my husband had an accident in France could not be faulted.
100% confidence in this company. I unfortunately had to make a claim last year when my golf clubs were stolen. The claims process was straightforward and well supported by SportsCover Direct.
First class! Simple, efficient and professional. The whole process was extremely simple from beginning to end.
I have used SportsCover Direct several times now for sports and summer sun insurance. They are first class at covering pre-existing medical conditions.

Our elephant riding insurance combines all the usual travel insurance essentials such as lost and stolen baggage, flight delay and cancellation cover. What’s more it also protects you for things that could occur whilst on a trek through the remote destinations you are likely to visit.
Emergency medical expenses and repatriation cover are included with our Sports Travel Insurance policy as standard. This means that should you get injured while on a elephant riding trip, you are covered for the costs.
Our Activity TopUp policy is specially designed for people who already hold standard travel insurance. Acting as an added extra, the policy specifically covers the days you will be elephant riding, giving you cover for any emergency medical expenses or repatriation costs should they occur.
You can take out the Activity TopUp policy when you are in your holiday destination, so even if you have left the UK, you can take out this cover.
Elephant riding is at the top of most travellers lists and it involves being balanced on top of an elephant normally in a seated platform. Each elephant has an owner, locally known as a Mahout who if often with its elephant for decades and is its sole responsibility. This unique closeness between owner and elephant allows tourists to gain a true insight in a day in the life of an elephant.
Each elephant ride normally sees you being taken through rainforest, off beaten tracks and through swimming holes, allowing you to get up close and personal with the local wildlife and form a bond with these amazing creatures. Elephants are highly intelligent animals, each having their own character and temperament which only increases the interest into being able to experience a ride on one. The carefree nature of elephant riding may not prompt you to think that any risks could arise but to ensure you are covered for all eventualities make sure that you have personal insurance.
Check before booking any elephant ride that the tour operators are trustworthy and are adequately taking care of their Elephants.
