Review of the World First Travel Insurance, Travel insurance:

Friendly and well informed staff

Medical screening made easy, lots of questions but sensible ones. Premiums reflect the screening they are very competitive and much better than some of the companies that I tried. Staff seemed well trained and helpful Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

We all deserve a holiday

5
After searching for travel insurance to take my baby with a blood condition away, I was shocked at the premium cost of it, regardless of the specifics of her condition. World First asked the right questions and gave us insurance that was fair. My Dad who has prostate cancer thought he couldn’t afford travel when looking for insurance until I recommended World First who offered a fantastic and reasonable insurance service. He’s been able to go on holiday and gave things to look forward to. Reviewed on: 4th August 2019

Holiday insurance

After struggling to get holiday insurance at a fair price I came across yourself. I was amazed how cheap my quote was and enjoyed a year of travel with peace of mind. The staff were very helpful and made what was a stressful time much more calm and relaxed Reviewed on: 4th August 2019

Great value insurance

World First gave us a fantastic price for a two week trip to Florida for myself and my husband who has been battling Myeloma for 3 years. This was our first proper holiday abroad since his diagnosis and we were being quoted astronomical amounts for the trip until we tried World First. Their quote meant we were able to go away and even when my husbands treatment was changed it didn’t affect the price we had paid. Would recommend them highly. Reviewed on: 4th August 2019

Sensible price for excellent cover.

Best for value and service

Most insurance companies wanted astronomical amounts to cover my husband after having cancer. World First gave me a very good price for same if not better cover. I don’t usually give recommendations but have recommended World First to all my family and friends. Website is very comprehensive but worth the effort. Reviewed on: 3rd August 2019
