Adventure Travel Advice, Please

[Skook]

Hello,

My daughter will be studying abroad in the Galapagos Islands a few months from now. I am considering getting her a policy from Global Rescue, Ripcord, MedJet Assist or some similar travel insurance company. Also, from what I've read on the web, cell phone service can be spotty in places, so I am also considering a Garmin InReach Mini 2 with some sort of text message subscription.

Does this sound about right? Anything else I should be looking into?

Thanks.

I would think a travel insurance plan would be wise. My wife studied abroad in Ecuador about 10 years ago. She did travel to the galapagos Islands for some time there. It was when her parents and brother came to visit. She said she thought rhen she just got a phone and plan when she was in ecuador. She still has friends she talks to there. Seems like a safe place overall. I would just talk to your provider but if you have an inreach or zoleo that would be nice as well
