Travelling with your family is a whole different ball game. While you might have pushed some boundaries when travelling by yourself or backpacking when you were young, you’d never do that with your family in tow… or would you? That’s where World Nomads Family Travel Insurance comes in, supporting you when things go wrong.

You can also access our community of like minded travellers to give you their insights from their travels as well as language guides, safety information, travel guides and videos to plan your trip.

What’s not covered

Read your policy carefully as there are some exclusions including:

  • If you change your mind you are not covered for cancelation or other expenses incurred as a result.
  • You do anything illegal (You didn’t really think we’d cover that did you?)
  • If you’ve taken drugs or alcohol
  • Non-emergency treatment that can wait until you return home (it's not health insurance, it's for travel emergencies)
  • Pre-existing medical conditions per the policy wording terms and conditions (with exceptions for pregnant mothers in some cases).
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.

Gastro.

My son started vomiting non-stop in the afternoon. An hour later, I started vomiting non-stop. A few hours after that, even my daughter started vomiting non-stop, then I started with diarrhea. As I was feeling weaker and weaker and the situation was only getting worse - we decided to go to the emergency room where they diagnosed us with Gastroenteritis.
