Taking the time to compare travel insurance* plans can be the difference between getting help when you need it most or being left without adequate coverage. That’s why World Nomads has made it easy to compare travel insurance online, so you can quickly see what is and isn’t covered.
Just buying the cheapest travel insurance plan without reading the details could mean shelling out for ski rentals when your skis or snowboard fails to arrive off the luggage conveyer belt or getting stuck with unexpected medical bills if you have been in an accident.
It’s important to make sure the plan you select will adequately cover your needs, as you will not be able to add coverage post-purchase. We suggest the best starting point is to consider:
Once you’ve done that, the next step is to consider the level of coverage you’ll need and what you’ll need coverage for. To help you out and provide some context, the claims we most often see are for:
Another important consideration is 24/7 Emergency Assistance so no matter where you are or what time it is, there’s someone just a phone call away waiting to help you and your family.
Our emergency assistance teams can help you locate a doctor who speaks your language, coordinate your emergency treatment plans, and even arrange for your emergency evacuation and repatriation back home in a worst-case scenario.
We also cover over 250 adventure activities and offer cancel-for-any-reason coverage (depending on the plan you choose). And if you decide to travel longer, World Nomads lets you buy more coverage on the road.
Only you can decide the best travel insurance plan for you. Whether you are traveling domestically or internationally, our website makes it easy to compare prices and benefits.
To get a quote, just enter a few details about your trip and you'll be able to compare our Standard, Explorer, Epic or Annual plans, benefits, and how much you’re covered for. These plans cover different activities and have different coverage limits so read them carefully. You can also download and read the full plan wording before you buy. You can’t upgrade your coverage after you purchase a plan, so it’s important to get this right on the first go.
World Nomads plans offer coverage for up to 180 days at a time with the Standard, Explorer, and Epic plans. And if you plan to take numerous trips during the year, then the Annual Plan could be best for you. It has a maximum trip length of 45 days.
While we want to cover you for as many scenarios as possible, we can’t cover everything. Here are a few situations we don’t cover:

While living on the third floor of a guesthouse in Cambodia, I woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and discovered that there was about 5 inches of water on my room floor. It turns out a pipe had burst and the water was seeping out of the walls. Unfortunately, my suitcases were under my bed, so everything in them got soaked- including my camera. Although I tried to reverse the water damage by putting my camera in a pot of rice for 24 hours, it did not help and now my camera will not function.
