Hey fellow Wild Dogs,

My partner and I are riding up the East coast of Africa from Cape Town in Jan 2020.

The countries we're riding through include:

- South Africa
- Namibia
- Botswana
- Zimbabwe
- Malawi
- Mozambique
- Tanzania
- Kenya
- Sudan
- Ethiopia
- Egypt

We'll be shipping the bikes back home from Egypt, then flying over to Europe where we'll be travelling via public transport.

Finally, the plan is to volunteer on a yacht as crew to sail back from Europe to Cape Town.

We estimate the entire trip to take about 8 months and we'll both be 29 years old on departure.

I have been scouring the internet trying to find comprehensive health insurance that will cover us for 'dangerous' activities such as riding motorbikes, rock climbing, hiking, etc. not to mention cover us for going through African countries.

I found World Nomads (https://www.worldnomads.com/row/) travel insurance but the quote they gave me was quite pricey at 22 000 ZAR.

Can anyone recommend any other options?

Thank you!
