去中国旅游需要购买旅游保险吗?

你正在为一次旅行做预算,考虑是否要加购一份50–150美元的保险。

推荐

如果旅行花费超过2,000美元或包含探险类活动,建议购买;如果只是短期的城市旅行,且信用卡已提供相应保障,可以不买。

  4. Will you be in a tier-1 city for most of the trip?

    Q4

    YES

    是的,购买. Tier-1 coverage (Beijing / Shanghai / Guangzhou / Shenzhen) is the universal baseline — outside it the secondary option often wins.

    NO

    不买. If none of the above apply, 不买 is the safer runner-up for your case.
