Sri Lanka Insurance Corporation General Ltd. (SLICGL) has launched ‘Adventure Plus’ personal accident cover designed exclusively for tourists visiting Sri Lanka.
Adventure Plus is a pioneering innovation providing medical coverage, accident protection, and emergency evacuation for higher-risk pursuits such as hiking, cycling, water sports, and jungle activities, protection that tourists cannot access through their existing insurance, regardless of provider. Rather than replacing a traveller’s current policy, Adventure Plus fills the gap, covering what standard policies exclude.
Developed in partnership with the Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority (SLTDA), the product elevates Sri Lanka’s profile as a trusted, affordable, and adventure-ready travel destination.
Priced at just US$ 8 per person for 30 days, Adventure Plus provides medical coverage, accident protection, and emergency evacuation for adventure sports and activities typically excluded from standard travel policies. Offering protection against higher-risk pursuits such as hiking, cycling, and water sports, the product ensures visitors can explore Sri Lanka’s diverse landscapes with confidence.  
SLICGL intends to roll out the offering through the airport counters in the future, with support from the SLTDA.Incoming tourists will thenhave the opportunity to be informed of the solution’s availability through these dedicated counters.
Dr. Sameera Dharmasena, Chief Executive Officer, Sri Lanka Insurance Corporation General Ltd. said, “Sri Lanka offers extraordinary experiences – from the highlands to the coast, the jungles to the surf. We want visitors to explore all of it with the confidence that, if something goes wrong, they have protection. Our theme ‘Thrills are yours; protection is ours.’ As the national insurer, it is our responsibility to support the growth of tourism, and Adventure Plus is a direct expression of this commitment.”
Buddhika Hewawasam, Chairman, Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority added, “Sri Lanka has always had the landscapes, the culture, and the experiences to compete with the world’s best adventure destinations. What we needed was the infrastructure to match. Adventure Plus is a meaningful step towards positioning Sri Lanka as a responsible, tourist-ready destination, one where visitors feel genuinely safe. The partnership with SLICGL supports exactly the kind of collaboration needed to advance national tourism.”
