NEW ZEALAND TRAVEL INSURANCE
 
Travelling to New Zealand or Australia? Have you booked your travel insurance?
 
Comprehensive Travel Insurance









Experience New Zealand has been selling Comprehensive Travel Insurance products to New Zealanders since 2000 and we continue to be impressed by the quality and affordability of their products and service.
 
Comprehensive Travel Insurance's 'Inbound Policy' is available to all of our overseas clients and anyone visiting New Zealand and Australia from overseas. You can purchase either New Zealand only cover or New Zealand and Australia cover.
 
Why Are Comprehensive's Policies Cheaper Than Your Usual Travel Insurance?
Because medical and legal costs are cheaper in New Zealand and Australia than in many other countries, these inbound policies do not need to subsidise the higher costs of insurance cover in those countries.
 
If you are a New Zealander looking to book travel insurance for overseas please visit our International Travel Insurance page.
