Underwritten by Allianz, World Nomads offers low cost travel insurance in over 44 countries. With genuine 24/7 assistance anywhere on the planet provided by Mondial Assistance, the world's largest travel insurance and assistance company, and online claims and extensions from anywhere in the world while you are still away, World Nomads offers some of the best travel insurance in the world today and if your traveling to Australia then test the obligation free quote system out.



Low cost. Great value.

World Nomads offers some of the best value online travel insurance available. The prices reflect both the efficiencies of the internet and the level of cover, which has been designed to meet the needs of young, adventurous, long-term travellers.




Australian travel insurance. More than you expect.

Worldwide cover

The level of worldwide cover in our travel insurance policy recognises the needs of young, independent and adventurous travellers. So there is cover for skiing and diving rather than for travel delays and missed connections, which most world nomads take in their stride as part of the trip.

And of course, everything is online. From changing your details to making a claim, you can do it all online.

Cover your Adventure

World Nomads travel insurance covers every country in the world, and from Bungee Jumping in New Zealand to white-water rafting in Nepal or skiing in Colorado, we also cover most adventure sports. Find out if what you want too do is covered with our simple guide to adventure.

Extend and claim online, while you are still away

Travel plans often change. That is what's exciting. Unlike other insurers, who don't allow you to extend or purchase again outside your country of residence, World Nomads allows you to extend your policy indefinitely. So if you just can't leave us here in Australia ... no problem - just extend your insurance option online in a flash.

And since you will probably be away for a while we recognised that you can't wait until you get home to make a claim, so we put it all online. You can submit claims, but more importantly also liaise with the claims department until it is settled.

And you can do so 24/7 from anywhere in the world.

Digital camera's, iPod's and computers.

Because it's your duty to make your friends mad with envy, you probably travel with a digital camera to email your pictures back home. That's why World Nomads cover such items as well as iPods, laptops and other valuable equipment.

The level of worldwide cover in our travel insurance policy recognises the needs of young, independent and adventurous travellers. So there is cover for skiing and diving rather than for travel delays and missed connections, which most world nomads take in their stride as part of the trip.
