No hassle No problems with Saga at all. Easy to deal with. Slightly pricier than expected. No claim so can't comment regarding claims or disputes. Reviewed on: 8th February 2026

Linked Insurance

Travel Insurance linked to the Saga Holidays(Cruises) makes booking seamless and the Insurer is aware of all the problem areas of their own itinerates. Reviewed on: 13th August 2025

Excellent Cover

Excellent Cover - We have been with a lot of other companies in the past but the service and support we receive from SAGA is excellent. Their pricing structure is clear to understand and very competitive within the market. Would highly recommend. Reviewed on: 13th August 2025

UK travellers beware.

This review relates to travel insurance only. I have car insurance with Saga and the prices and cover is good. I therefore went to get a travel insurance quote for an annual UK only policy. There was no option for U.K. on their website, so I went on to chat. I was told that the only option would be for me to take out a Europe-wide annual policy and that would cover me for the U.K. as well. As a Europe-wide policy would cost at least double a U.K. only one, this is a clear rip off. For a company who deals only with older travellers, there must be many who, for health or financial reasons, are unable to travel abroad but need cover for U.K. only. To make them pay for Europe-wide cover is a very nice little earner for them. Reviewed on: 13th August 2025

Reliable and respectful.

Reliable and respectful. The Company doesn't push you into taking their insurance - they just give you all the facts and their quote. It gives you time to decide without getting annoying phone calls or e-mails. Reviewed on: 13th August 2025
