Volunteer Travel Insurance Policies

Volunteering abroad is more popular than ever, and with university becoming increasingly expensive more and more people are heading out to foreign shores to carry out volunteering roles. From doing environmental work in Costa Rica to teaching English as a foreign language in China, there are a huge range of opportunities for those prepared to up sticks and move away from home comforts. Whatever volunteering role you decide is right for you, it’s important you get the right volunteer travel insurance as well so if anything goes wrong in your new workplace then you have the best travel insurance policy available to fall back on.

Whether you are just finishing school, fresh out of university or taking a career break, doing volunteering work abroad is a great way to explore the world and get an insight into a different culture that you would never experience on a more orthodox backpacking trip. Immersing yourself in a community and becoming part of the day to day life of people who live there is an incredibly rewarding way to travel. But it’s important not to forget that someone has to look after you as well, and getting the right travel insurance policy is step 1 of that process.

At Navigator we want to make the process of getting volunteer travel insurance as simple as possible as we know it can be daunting trying to sift through the small print and pick out every little detail. Also, the type of volunteering you are doing is likely to change the type of travel insurance policy you need as English teachers are at lower risk than those involved in outdoor, manual work.

• Annual Multi Trip Policy
• Long Stay Single Trip Policy
• Short Stay Single Trip Policy
