Explorer travel insurance

The Explorer travel insurance policy will cover you if you're aged between 18 and 35 and planning a career or study break. Each policy provides:

  • cover for trips from 2 months up to 1 year
  • more than 90 activities as standard
  • cover for 1 visit home1
  • all the basics are covered too including medical, cancellation and personal belongings*
  • optional cover for winter sports and more

 

 

Post Office® Travel Insurance is underwritten by Ageas Insurance Limited

*See full policy wording for limitations

1You will be allowed to make a single return trip to the United Kingdom with a maximum duration of 14 days during the period of insurance (excluding any return trip for which a claim is being made as a result of medical emergency, repatriation or curtailment). All cover ends on clearance of customs in your home country and starts again after the baggage check in at your international departure point for your return flight, international train or ferry to your overseas destination. All cover stops if you have made a claim or intend to make a claim under the curtailment Section. There is no cover available for any flight costs where the return is for a reason you are not insured for.

Over 35?

If you are aged 35 or over our Long Trip policy may be what you are looking for. Alternatively, please call free on 0800 294 2292.
