Travel insurance for France

Bon voyage to France

France is a popular destination for Australians. With its iconic landmarks, fabulous antique markets and heavy-on-the-butter cuisine, France continues to be the most visited country in the world – and for excellent reason. But even when you’re munching on croissants under the Eiffel Tower, the unexpected can occur – which is why it’s a good idea to consider getting travel insurance. We can help with that.

What's covered?

We've simplified travel insurance with our bundled Explorer Plan that you can build upon with extra coverage. This way, you only pay for the coverage you need on the days you actually need it.

Cover for medical

We provide coverage for overseas medical expenses, including hospital expenses for approvable claims. If things go really wrong, we can help with emergency repatriation or evacuation to bring you home.

Only applies to Overseas Explorer Plan

Cover for your trip

If you need to amend, delay or cancel your trip, we can help smooth out bumps in your travel plans. You can even increase your cancellation coverage in increments of $1,000 by paying additional premiums.

Cover for your gear

We offer coverage to help fund the replacement or reimbursement
of delayed, lost, stolen or damaged luggage. You can also increase the single-item limit for portable electronic gadgets, and ramp up your coverage for other specified items you won't travel without.
