Travel insurance is a must if you plan on jetting off overseas, whether it be for a short break or a year long adventure. Downunder Insurance provide affordable worldwide travel insurance policies with great levels of cover to any traveller under the age of 55 years. As well as being affordable, our policies offer great levels of cover and added benefits such as 24 hour medical emergency cover and 50+ adventure sports cover as standard.
Why should I take out an Insurance Policy?
It's always advisable to take out insurance prior to any overseas holiday to ensure you are covered for even the most basic things like medical and other related expenses, legal expenses and public liability. As the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade states 'If you can't afford travel insurance, you can't afford to travel.'
Medical cover is vital, particularly in countries where medical care costs are high (such as North America and Japan) or where the care is below the standard you expect (such as in some third world countries) and where you require repatriation to your home country.

- Essentials Policy - Under 40 years of age, basic cover with 24 hour medical emergency and public liability and legal expenses;
- Backpacker Policy - Under 40 years of age, as above but with baggage cover, personal accident, travel delay, missed departure and cancellation and curtailment - ideal for Working Holidays and Backpacking;
