Unlike many adventure companies and tour guides in Australia and around the world, Cutting Edge Advenutres Australia is fully insured with up to $10 million public liability cover. If you are injured on a trip / expedition, travel insurance companies will not honour policies if you travel with an uninsured, unlicensed operator. This is a very important factor to consider when choosing your tour operator. Do not risk your health and life just to save a few hundred dollars.
Cutting Edge Adventures Australia only offers Advenutres that are run professionally by either our own local team or by a local operator that works with Cutting Edge Adventures Australia to our own and industry standards. In Papua New Guinea, Nepal and Australia we are the operator. Our guides are experienced and reliable who follow a strict set of environmental, social, cultural and labour policies.
