Backpackers travel insurance
Backpacker travel insurance from Travel Insurance Direct is low cost cover for backpackers travelling around the world. So whether on a GAP year, working holiday, studying abroad or simply soaking up the sun on dreamy beaches, we can provide the best value backpacker holiday insurance.
Our essentials Plus cover is a policy that is inexpensive and popular with young people who travel on limited budgets and even covers incidents that travelers may not even realise they are covered for.
For example, a person purchasing backpacker insurance may be covered if he must cancel his trip due to a failed university examination and may also cover cancellation of travel plans due to illness, too not just the insured party's illness, but any illness of a friend or family member whose situation would cause the insured party to want to remain home.
Underwritten by Allianz
We also understand it is important you choose a travel insurance policy that is underwritten by one of the big, international insurance companies so you can sleep at night, or stay out all night, if you prefer, so policies from Travel Insurance Direct are underwritten by Allianz – one of the biggest international insurance companies in the world.
But don't take our word for it ...
Travel Insurance Direct obviously put a huge amount of effort into attention to detail that ensures there is no wasted effort and their customers have everything they need at their fingertips.
But why would you take the world of a Travel Insurance company right?
So don't take our word for it; listen to our customers.
