Why Choose Digit for your Maldives Travel Insurance from India?
to travellers. Here are some reasons why we are the perfect pick:
- Enjoy Adventure Sports without any Worries - Are you planning to scuba dive and snorkel while in the Maldives? These are some of the fascinating activities that you can undertake on your holiday. Nonetheless, they are risky that can lead to injuries and accidents. How do you plan to pay for medical care necessary due to these incidents? Digit’s travel insurance policy ensures that you do not need to plan for such emergency expenses. It covers the expenses for any treatment you receive for single-day adventure sports-related injuries while on the Maldives trip.
- Nominal Premiums Ensure Affordable Policies - Digit’s basic travel cover to the Maldives offers a sum insured of $50,000. From just that information, you would expect the policy price to be somewhere in the thousands. Well, would you believe that the starting price for such a policy is just Rs. 175 (excl. 18% GST) per adult per day of stay? Believe it!
- Focus on Recuperating Instead of Worrying about Treatment Expense - Hospitalisation in a foreign country is often a scary prospect, especially considering the increased cost of medical aid in the Maldives. Apart from causing a sudden, unplanned rise in the overall vacation cost, such hospitalisations can even leave you broke. The Maldives travel insurance from India can prevent such unforeseen expenditure during your travels. Further, you can focus on recovering from the disease (or accident) instead of worrying about the increasing hospital bills.
- No Liability Even If you Damage/Injure a Third-party - Under normal circumstances, you would need to pay for any damages that you cause to a third-party, whether it is an individual or property, due to a road trip accident during the trip. You will also be expected to cover the cost of damage to the rental car. Without travel insurance, you would need to pay for any third party liability in the Maldives. However, when you opt for a Digit travel insurance policy, your financial liability shifts to us.
- Reach Digit’ Customer Care 24x7 - If you think you would be unable to seek assistance from Digit on your trip, don’t worry. Digit’s 24x7 customer care service team is ready to assist policyholders, both day and night. Call +91-730347000 and our representatives will get back to you in a few minutes.
- Lost/delayed Baggage in Transit Cover - Mix up of baggage at international airports is quite common. Such a misunderstanding can cause delays in you receiving the baggage. In some cases, it can hamper your entire trip, as you would be missing many of the essential items for a hassle-free vacation.
Digit’s travel insurance for the Maldives helps you to claim monetary help in such cases. You will receive compensation for any delay or lost baggage during transit.
Apart from these, Digit also offers trip cancellation cover, emergency cash cover, emergency trip extension cover, passport re-issuance cost cover, etc. under your Maldives travel insurance cover.
Know more about the Maldives before your Trip
The Maldives is a destination full of pristine beaches and idyllic water bodies in its surroundings. Its proximity to India makes Maldives one of the favourite tourist destinations amongst the populace. Further, the various opportunities to engage in adventurous activities, including scuba diving, is also another reason for the Maldives being a popular vacationing destination, especially amongst youngsters.
Whether it is a weekend getaway trip or your honeymoon, Maldives is the perfect destination for a vacation.
Best Time to Visit Maldives
The Maldives enjoys hot and sunny weather throughout the year:
- Temperatures are the most pleasant between November and April.
- Avoid visiting the country between May and October, due to the torrential rains that are common around this time. You cannot do much during the rainy season, other than waiting around in hotel rooms.
Top 5 Places to Visit in the Maldives
The following five destinations are amongst the best of what the Maldives has to offer to guests.
- Banana Reef - If the sole reason for your Maldives visit is to experience the aquatic life and ecology, head to Banana Reef. It is a popular scuba diving destination, due to the presence of corals, colourful seaweed and an abundance of interesting underwater fauna in the region.
- Hulhumale Island - If you want a change in scenery from beaches, Hulhumale Island is where you can head to. Just a stone’s throw away from Male (Maldives’ capital), Hulhumale is a sprawling city that is continually growing and expanding. Amongst the most interesting things in Hulhumale are the promenade walkways above the Indian Ocean and a glass-topped mosque.
- Utheemu - Utheemu is one of the Maldivian sites that hold immense historical significance. It was once the home for Sultan Mohamed Thakurufaanu. The Sultan played an integral role in driving out the Portuguese invaders from the Maldives during the 1500s.
- COMO Cocoa Island - One of the most beautiful places in the Maldives, and arguably around the globe, is the COMO Cocoa Island. Best-suited for honeymooning couples, this region is home to some truly spectacular resorts and hotels, offering a full view of the surrounding pristine blue waters.
- Tsunami Monument in Male - It is hard to believe that something so beautiful was created as a result of the most horrific Tsunami in recent memory. The Maldives suffered immense losses due to the Tsunami disaster of 2004. In remembrance of all the lives lost, the Maldivian authorities erected this spectacular structure in the capital city of Male.
Remember, these are just five of the most vital places you can visit within the Maldives. Even so, you will barely scratch the surface of what it has to offer.
