Review of the World First Travel Insurance, Travel insurance:

A very sensitive and thorough assessment of our needs followed by a very reasonable quote

They have a very professional and bespoke approach to providing insurance for those with medical conditions. Having gathered lots of evidence they provided us with an excellent quote. I was impressed that they did not seem to be reading from a prompt sheet but actually listened to me and our actual situation. Reviewed on: 21st September 2016

When the chips are down...

You only find out how good an insurance policy is when the chips are down. Book. Next Pandemic hits. Fco issue 'essential travel only' advice. Not covered. You could argue read the t&c. Would you have spotted it before covid hit? Other providers cover this, well they did pre-covid, use them instead. Reviewed on: 27th July 2020

When no other company was interested

After completing numerous online questionaires and getting no where we decided to call World First Travel Insurance they listened accurately to my wife's health history and current circumstances and we have now taken out 3 policies over the past 3 years, thank you. Reviewed on: 11th October 2019
