We know there’s nothing more exciting than heading overseas with a ticket in your back pocket. So we designed our policies to cover more than 180 activities and events including casual bar work, skiing, zorbing and much more.
Our policies come with loads of benefits depending on the policy that you buy, but all of them cover:
You can buy more cover, even if you’re already on the road. Generally cover lasts for one year, but if you want to extend your trip beyond one year, you just need to jump online to get a quote.
You can’t upgrade your policy type once you’ve departed and started your holiday, so you’ll have to buy a new policy if you need more coverage. That’s why it’s critical you select the right level of cover up front.
There’s a number of other exclusions so make sure you read your policy and know what you aren’t covered for. These include but aren't limited to:
It’s important to remember that World Nomads offers travel insurance… not medical insurance. That means our policies won’t cover you for ongoing medical care (we'll patch you up and send you home).
This is not a full list of what's covered and not covered. There are limits and conditions that apply, so for more information, read your policy carefully before you buy.
I was opening a bag of potatoes with a knife. The knife slipped and cut the 2nd (index) finger on my left hand. I attended the local emergency department in Aix-en-Provence at no charge, they referred me to Clinique Axium the following day. I underwent micro surgery to repair the ulnar nerve in my finger which I had partially severed (50%). Up until this time I was unaware that I had injured the nerve and definitely wasn't aware that I would require surgery. This operation was conducted under local anaesthetic.. I have had 2 follow up appointments at the Clinique the first of which was to issue a prescription to enable my dressings to be changed along with having a specialised splint made to keep my finger in a bent position to enable healing.
