Used this company before and the price was always reasonable, service agent was very helpful, and took time to explain any queries i had. Highly recommended.
Website is easy to understand and negotiate. Sections are clear and it’s good that a number of price options are available. I have bought a number of policies now over the years .

Knew what they were talking about!
The person who dealt with my application for travel insurance actually had a medical understanding of my pre-existing conditions unlike the other so-called expert companies I had tried. As a result I got my annual insurance and am looking forward to many happy holidays - thank you so much!

Tried to register to create an account. Message given, 'there was an error registering your details, please try again' Message continued until I gave up. No idea what the problem is. Hope there are no issues when I go on holiday!

Purchasing the insurance was straightforward. More pertinent comments would come from those who had to make a claim following an accident. Fortunately I did not have to.

Always a delight insuring with Alpha Travel Insurance
Always a delight insuring with Alpha Travel Insurance. Very detailed and an easy read on policies with outlined protection on any unexpected situations including medical cover, lost and stolen baggage, cancellations, reimbursements and the likes. They offer a full cover or cover to suit your pockets and needs. I've used them for a number of years and satisfied with their services (ie if a claim is ever required). My latest full cover was for a trip to stunning West Afric-exotic Cabo Verde🇨🇻🏖️💙🏕️🏜️ and taking a travel insurance policy with Alpha Travel Insurance was as uncomplicated as always. Always read through your policies and ensure it covers all you want in an emergency or unforeseen circumstances. To that end, I highly recommend ALPHA TRAVEL INSURANCE. Best wishes all! 🧡🥰Xx
