Do I need travel insurance on a motorcycle touring holiday?

Like all trips or holidays, although not a legal requirement, travel insurance is a good idea in case the unexpected were to happen that could leave you out of pocket without adequate travel insurance.

Am I covered whilst riding a motorcycle?

What is the best motorcycle travel insurance?

There is no such thing as ‘the best travel insurance’ as each individual and their trip or holiday will have different requirements.

We can support you in the event you are admitted to a facility that may not be suitable for your clinical needs or where there are concerns over practice.

We will then advise on, and can put in place, suitable repatriation plans to get you home as soon as it is medically safe to do so. We will liaise with the treating doctor to get a fit to fly certificate when needed, and with aero-medical experts who will advise on both the timing and method of repatriation that is best suited to your individual needs of your recovery.
