Medical insurance?
Apart from getting a Russian Visa!!!! Medical insurance for my drive from Scotland to Vladivostok is the last thing on my list. 4 weeks till I set of and I cannot wait to 'hit the road'!
But on the topic of 'hitting the road' I am deliberating over some type of medical insurance and medical evac insurance. Should I or not??? I'll be in a Landrover with roll cage so hopefully in the event of a vehicle accident we stand a fighting chance. But usually on a trip we come unstuck for the things we could never account for. You guys got any advice on what might be appropriate for Russia Siberia Mongolia and what company you used. Maybe I should just eat a bag of cement and harden the **** updoh Thanks again Callum |

Suggest World Nomads

A roll cage wont stop you getting Typhoid.
Columbus are reasonable, good rates and easily set out policy etc. can all be done online. we were looking at theirs for our 10month trip next year. Dont forget your E111 card covers you for EU so make sure you have one, its in date, and your carrying it. G |

This is what I use... for medical and evac. World Nomads - Travel Insurance and your adventures |
Its a typhoid resistant roll cage ;-)
Had a look at World Nomads and their cover looks pretty good. Can I still get an E111 if I am no longer a resident in the UK? Not sure if I would be elligable for that?? Will check out Columbus Thanks again Callum |
Just checked out Columbus.... it doesn't include motorcycling in their adventure package. I t does have an option for overland expedition but that doesn't cover personal liability. And if it doesn't cover personal liability what's the point?
I've not used them but I found Bikers Travel Insurance in my search a while ago that looked quite good. I think it'll be between these people and World Nomads. |

Navigator Travel- Speak to Richard, he is very friendly and is not a 'computer says no' type.

Thanks everybody for all your replies.
The only company I can find which will back medical evacuation is World Nomads so I think I will go down that route. Thanks again Callum:thumbup1: |
