Backpackers Insurance
Cheap Travel Insurance provides some of the most comprehensive cover available for backpackers. Taking time out perhaps for a gap year or extended time abroad? Travelling, working or even visiting distant relatives? Our backpacker and gap year travel insurance covers you for long trips abroad, anywhere in the world.
If you're travelling for more than 31 days then our backpacker travel insurance policy will cover all your needs. Our cover includes everything from medical expenses to lost passport or cash.
For backpackers or travellers taking extended time out from the UK we provide specialist backpacking travel insurance. We can offer our specialist backpacker policy for people aged 18 to 49. You can also include ski insurance and snowboarding cover for up to 18 months, ideal if you will be working in a ski resort whilst away.
Our policies will give you peace of mind if you have an accident or fall ill while travelling abroad. We also have optional cover for your personal possesions in case of loss, damage, or theft.
If you decide to stay abroad a bit longer than you first planned, then that's not a problem with us. As long as you contact us before your current policy finishes you can extend your Backpacker Travel Insurance policy up to 18 months whilst you're away and we only charge you the pro rata cost.
Optional Sports Activity Cover
Our policy automatically offers sports and activity cover with 42 activities as standard. For an extra premium we provide cover for the more adventurous activities such as Zorbing, Scuba Diving and White Water Rafting. We even offer cover for extreme sports such as Black Water Rafting, Bunjee Jumping, and Sky Diving. For full details see our Hazardous Sports section. For the winter sports enthusiasts you can also include ski and snowboarding cover to your policy.
 (The Backpacker policy is the best value policy on the market with optional cover for baggage and money plus a number activities automatically included. We have designed this policy for the cheapest medical cover available. You can view policy cover options here.)
Remember that not every country has a free health service like we do in the UK and without adequate insurance you could find yourself facing a large medical bill if you fall ill or have an accident abroad without travel insurance.
