What is the best travel insurance?
We believe the best travel insurance* is the kind that allows you to travel overseas knowing you’re properly covered for your adventure… at the best price.
At World Nomads, we’re travelers too and we know that while some travelers buy insurance to cover them when things go wrong, they’d rather be enjoying a Bellini at Harry’s Bar in Venice or upgrading their room in Bangkok to include air conditioning.
That’s why we’ve designed our travel insurance based on what our travelers said they wanted… flexible online travel insurance that covers you for what you need, when you need it.
What's included?
World Nomads policies include coverage, up to the policy limits, for:
- Emergency Medical
- Delayed, lost, stolen or damaged baggage
- Trip cancellation
- Emergency evacuation and repatriation
- 250 adventure activities
- 24/7 Worldwide Emergency Assistance
- Cancel-for-any-reason coverage (at an additional cost, only available in some plans)
When you get a quote, be sure to download and read the full plan wording so you know what you're covered for.
World Nomads travel insurance also:
- Makes it easy to buy and claim online, even if you’re traveling.
- Lets you buy a plan, even after you’ve left home.
- Provides free access to travel safety advice for your next adventure.
- Offers coverage for a wide variety of adventure activities – more than 250 for U.S. residents.
- Gives you 24/7 emergency assistance.
What's best for you?
We know that no two travelers are alike. Our nomads range from gap year students and backpackers to long-term travelers, retirees, and families. We offer four plans – Standard, Explorer, Epic or Annual – you can choose the level of coverage that is right for you. These plans cover different activities and offer different levels of coverage and limits, so review the plans 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.

A True Claims Story
I went to the hospital because I felt a fever and upon further testing they found it to be dengue fever. They also found an infection in my liver, which made the process of getting better take longer than usual. I stayed in the hospital for 8 days before I was discharged.
