We believe World Nomads Travel Insurance is the type of insurance that may help you travel abroad knowing you’re covered for your adventure… at the best price.

At World Nomads we’re travellers too, and we know that while everybody buys travel insurance to cover them when things go wrong, they’d rather be splashing out on a Bellini at Harry’s bar in Venice or upgrading their Bangkok hotel to include air conditioning.

That’s why we’ve designed our online travel insurance based on what you said you wanted… flexible online travel insurance that offers cover for medical emergencies, baggage delay or theft, trip delays, Coronavuirus-related cover, and more.

Travel insurance: What's included?

We've built our policies to help cover as many of those unexpected situations as we can. All of our policies offer cover for: 

  • Overseas emergency medical expenses
  • Luggage/baggage cover
  • Cancellation
  • 24/7 worldwide emergency assistance

Of course, each policy is different but they have many benefits. Be sure to read the policy wording so you know what you're covered for.

Travel insurance: What's best for you?

As no two travellers are alike and range from gap year students and backpackers to long term travellers and families, we offer two options, Standard and Explorer so you can choose the level of cover that is right for you.

If you need the extras you can pay for them and if you don’t, then you can keep a little extra in your back pocket.

This is only a summary of cover and does not include the full terms, conditions, limits, and exclusions of the policy. You should read your policy wording in full, so you understand what is and isn’t covered. If you are unsure about your level of travel cover, please contact us for help.

Teeth hit the ground.

I put my foot in a funny way while I was walking quickly because it was raining, I just fell unexpectedly to the floor my face first so I put my arm bad and broke the shoulder a little bit and hit the ground with my front teeth so the lip was in blood and 1 tooth broken.
