World First put Family First

5
World First were swift to respond to our 'what if...' questions about travelling and explained the insurance services they provide. By the time we went on holiday, we felt confident that World First cover meant that we could relax and enjoy our holiday to the max because should the unexpected happen, we knew we'd be protected. Reviewed on: 6th July 2017

Affordable travel insurance for people with existing medical conditions

4
World First Annual Travel Insurance came out as one of the cheapest for my husband and I who both have medical conditions. Easy to renew on-line but the tele-sales team are also very helpful and pleasant. Recommended! Reviewed on: 6th July 2017

Best cover ever for mild asthma sufferer

5
Easy to apply online. I suffer from mild asthma and I regularly cycle 10-15 miles without having to take any Ventolin medication. World First were the only company that asked if I get out of breath after exercise. The world wide annual multi trip cover was cheaper than any other insurance company policy for a single trip.
