Insurance

As a tourist agent, Combitours has a personal accident insurance policy, which is free and included in the price, so even outside the van all occupants are completely protected during their stay in Portugal. This insurance is only valid during the trip.

Van insurance

The van come with basic third party insurance and passenger cover of 50.000.000€. This means you will be covered in case of damage to other road users (legal liability). It does not include any damage caused by you to our vehicle.

The maximum amount of excess does not exceed 2.000€. This standard policy applies to all camper hire companies in Portugal.

Glass and acrylic materials breakage totalling 1.000€.

We are members of ACP, which provides roadside assistance with on-site repair services, which assures us that 94% of the cases are solved on-site and may then continue their journey.

In case of mechanical breakdown not due to the client, combitours pays for the repair. In case of misuse* the cost of repair must be paid in full by the client.

The insurance does not cover damage due to break-ins or vandalism. You are fully liable for this.
