There’s one thing our travelers all say they want more of… more time. More time planning their trip, more time at their destinations and much more time relaxing and enjoying their adventure.
No one tells us they want to spend their precious time sorting out travel insurance, but they know it’s a ‘must have’, whether they be a backpacker, long term traveler or gap student.
All we need is some basic information on who you are, where you’re going and how long you’ll be gone for and we’ll generate your instant quote outlining your travel insurance coverage and limitations.
To give you certainty of coverage and confidence in traveling, we’ve made sure all our online travel insurance options include:
We’ve also designed it in an easy-to-understand format, clearly outlining the Standard and Explorer levels of cover, to help you choose the right travel insurance cover for your break.
What and where you’re covered for is very important to our travelers and if you’re already overseas it’s not too late - you can still purchase online now.
While in a restaurant in Saigon, Vietnam I cut my hand on a broken glass door. I was bleeding quite a bit so we went to the hospital that night. The doctor confirmed that I cut a tendon in my hand (thumb) and will need surgery. The following day I went to the hospital and received a tendon repair surgery at HCMC Family Medical Practice.

World Nomads policies cannot cover claims due to Pre-Existing Medical Conditions (PEMC), regardless of whether the condition is serious or not (this includes if you're on separate or joint policies). You can still purchase a World Nomads policy, but the PEMC exclusion is not removable.
For travel insurance providers that offer cover on PEMC, visit the Money and Pensions Service (MaPS) Money Helper website, or call 0800 138 7777. BIBA's (The British Insurance Brokers' Association) Find Insurance Service offers information on serious PEMCs and travel insurance providers that may cover these conditions. You can also contact them on 0370 950 1790.
Here are several activities under each category that World Nomads love to do:
Not all activities, sports, and experiences are covered under every plan. You may have to upgrade the policy and sporting level to receive the cover you require for the activities you plan to do. Please read your policy wording carefully before you buy.
If you need medical assistance or emergency medical evacuation our team is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year before and during your trip.
Wherever you are, we’re here 24/7 to help you in any emergency.
