Review of the World First Travel Insurance, Travel insurance:

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

5
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

Best value for money

This company offer the best cover at the best price, unlike most others they don’t inflate the price just because you’re unlucky to have a pre-existing medical condition. Reviewed on: 27th August 2020

World First to World Beaters.

5
Time was getting close to our cruise of a lifetime, I had recently turned an age a lot of insurance companies don't like doing business with, the stress of inoculations being done, packing, last minute details about leaving our home for the longest period of time we had ever done, and all the usual stress related worries that creep up on you in the final run up to a big holiday. Still had a problem getting an affordable insurance policy for myself, that's when I contacted World First Travel Insurance and suddenly my problems were over, I had the Insurance I wanted at a cost I was happy with, all there was to do now is to relax and enjoy my trip knowing I am covered, thank you World First Travel Insurance.

Best travel insurer for people with health issues! Brilliant!

5
I have Chronic Lymphatic Leukaemia, Dystonia and Hypertension. I tried numerous travel insurers and World First offered me the most comprehensive cover at (compared to other companies) a very reasonable and affordable cost. The trips were also for holidays which command high travel insurance, America in 2018 and a Caribbean Cruise at the beginning of this year 2020. I can’t praise this company highly enough for somebody like myself with health problems who made it possible for me to travel. Reviewed on: 26th August 2020
