Tailored to your exact requirements, it covers you for anything from 31 days to a year abroad. Worldwide cover gives you the freedom to travel the globe. Alternatively, you can choose options if you are travelling in Europe or Australia and New Zealand.

At Club Direct, we try to make things as easy and as flexible as possible for you. We recognise that some people might have to work abroad while they're travelling, even if they had not originally planned to. So, with our backpacker travel insurance policies, light general work is covered as standard. Plus, activities such as white water rafting and scuba diving are also included, again at no extra cost - just in case you want to give them a try.

Sports and activities
Cover is provided for a variety of activities (Activity Pack). We also offer top-up cover for a wide range of additional sports and activities. Further information and details of the types of activities covered are available when you request a quote from our online ordering system.

What you need to tell us
To ensure that this backpacker travel insurance provides adequate cover, it is important that you tell us if you have any existing medical conditions. You must also tell us of any fact that is likely to influence us in the assessment or acceptance of this insurance. Failure to do so may mean that you have insufficient cover in the event of a claim.

Policy excess
In most cases, an excess of £60 applies to single trip policies. However, we do not apply it where claims are just for benefit payments - for example, for travel delay. Alternatively, you have the option to remove the excess, if you wish. For each claim, we only apply one excess per person, regardless of how many sections of the policy the claim covers.

Flexibility
All our policies are designed to be flexible, so if you want something a little different, just ask!

IMPORTANT
This is a single trip insurance policy and cover will cease upon return to the UK.

You can purchase single trip cover online up to 99 years. (Must have been a resident of the UK for the last 12 months).
