Looking for comprehensive travel insurance to cover your (or your child’s) adventure overseas? World Nomads has designed our travel insurance cover with the adventurous in mind and covers many activities up-front.

Are you looking for comprehensive travel insurance?

While we won't say our travel insurance is comprehensive (because it doesn't cover everything), our travellers get up to all sorts of different things, so we offer two levels of cover - Standard and Explorer - with options to include extra activities to cover both the more, and less, adventurous.

As you'd expect, every policy is different and has multiple benefits. However, all of them include:

You also have access to World Nomads’ community of like-minded travellers, language guides, safety information, travel guides and more.

There are limits, conditions and exclusions which apply, so be sure to read the policy wording before you buy a policy. 

What's not covered?

If you put yourself in danger then we won’t cover you. This includes going to places the Foreign Ministry of your Country of Residence tells you not to, doing activities that you’re not qualified for or are too dangerous. We have a list of covered activities in our policies and if you’re not sure, give us a call and we’ll let you know if we’ll cover it or not.

Other things we won’t cover include:

  • Anything illegal (you didn’t really think we’d cover that did you?)
  • Drugs or alcohol abuse
  • Pre-existing medical conditions (however if you're pregnant, read the policy wording to understand cover that's available, including for 'complications of pregnancy')

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.

Sore penis!

I noticed an abnormal infiammation of my penis. Initially I had also a little bit pain and I got scared. In the evening the pain and the itch were gone but I still was worried because the dermatitis started to get worse.
