Packed your rucksack and keen to see the world? Do you need Travel Insurance? Yes definitely! It’s tempting to save the cost, but you’ll be wishing you hadn’t if you need emergency medical treatment and don’t have the cash to pay for it; or don’t speak the same language as the doctor? What happens if you arrive in your dream destination, but your backpack doesn’t? Globetrekker Standard Plus will have all these challenges sorted.
This policy is ideal for people aged up to 50 years old travelling for a while or backpackers and globetrekkers. Globetrekker Standard Plus Travel Insurance (from €114.56) gives you excellent Emergency Medical Expenses cover, plus the added protection of Baggage cover Money, Passport, Personal Accident and Legal Expenses Cover
Travel worldwide with our backpacking travel for up to 15 months at a time. Usually there’s the option to extend it up to a maximum of 18 months.
The European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) / Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) provides some emergency healthcare within the EU, but it does not cover Repatriation costs, or a doctor or nurse escort home; nor lost or stolen property. You need Travel Insurance for that.
Globetrekker Standard Plus Travel Insurance provides the added security of Personal Accident and Legal Expenses cover as standard. Plus cover for your Personal Money, Passport and Baggage for a great low.
Stay active and adventurous on your trip while staying safe and secure knowing we’ve got you covered.
