Travel Insurance
Make sure you’re covered for your upcoming adventure
Yes travel insurance sounds like a boring and expensive addition to your trip, BUT it’s arguably the most important. Having insurance can make sure you’re covered in any unforeseen circumstances or accidents while you’re travelling.
We’ve reviewed the most popular insurance companies that our travellers have picked in the past year, and chosen the ones that fit with our values.
#1
World Nomads
One of the cool things about World Nomads is that it was built by travellers for travellers. Unlike most insurance companies, World Nomads was born out of a need to provide backpackers with a comprehensive enough plan that was easy and flexible. It is a large brand that is well-known and well-trusted, as well as it being the trusted insurance for many other tour companies.
#2
Safety Wing
Rather than paying a bulk sum of money before you head on your travels, SafetyWing offers a subscription service, so you can pay monthly for your travel insurance instead without having to decide upfront how long you need the policy for.
#3
Outbacker
Outbacker is a travel insurance that is specifically tailored towards the backpacker travel market.
They cover working holidays as standard and include cover for over 100 sports & activities as standard. For higher risk sports & activities, they also offer an additional premium, which you can pay for by the day or week to ensure you only pay for the cover you need.
