Cyprus Travel Insurance
You've booked the flight and found your perfect holiday accommodation in Cyprus, all
at a great price. But now you need Cyprus holiday insurance and you don't know where to start.
If you booked a package holiday to Cyprus, you will have been offered travel insurance as an
"extra". It always amazes me how many people still take the easy option and book their Cyprus
holiday insurance with their tour operator.
Tip 1: You can ALWAYS get a cheaper deal elsewhere as tour operators
charge a premium on any insurance policy they sell ie. they add on a hefty commission!
How to choose Travel Insurance Cyprus
- Decide whether you want to buy a single trip or multi trip travel insurance policy.
Whilst a multi trip policy will sound expensive, typically around €100 per person, if you plan to make
more than one trip abroad, these types of travel insurance policy are usually the best value.
Most multi trip policies also cover you for trips within your own country so you can be covered
on long weekends away.
- Consider the type of cover you need. Beach lovers may be fine with a simple travel
insurance policy but if you plan to do anything adventurous on holiday, then you will need
additional insurance cover.
If you plan to dive, for example, you will need scuba diving travel
insurance or if you want to hurtle down a hill on a mountain bike, then you need appropriate
extreme sports cover.
Tip 2: Read the small print of any travel insurance policy BEFORE
you buy. You may think you are covered for something when you're not so always ask for
clarification if you are not sure.
- Make sure you have adequate cover for your valuables. The limits on cash and baggage loss are usually quite low so
if you like to travel "heavy" (Yes you always get that "Caution - heavy item" sticker on your luggage!)
then think about what you will be taking and how much it would cost to replace it if lost or stolen.
- Most online travel insurance policies have a maximum age limit of 65 years so if you are aged 65 or over you will need to look for specialist over 65's travel insurance.
- True adventure seekers must ensure their Cyprus travel insurance policy has cover for
repatriation. This ensures that, in the event of an accident which requires an airlift from
Cyprus to your home country, you will not have to take out a mortgage to cover the costs!
Companies offering Cyprus Travel Insurance
The best way for most people to compare cheap travel insurance is to buy online.
If you live in the UK, there are hundreds of insurance companies including big brand names
more commonly known for selling groceries and toiletries like Tesco or Boots. These companies
have diversified into insurance products and offer great value for money versus mainstream
travel insurance providers, but again, READ the SMALLPRINT before you buy your travel insurance Cyprus.
We do miss the ease of booking insurance online as most Cyprus holiday insurance companies
are notoriously slow in processing quotes and you always have to visit their offices to actually
purchase a policy.
We've carried out a survey of Cyprus travel insurance policies to see how cheap some of the major companies are.

price comparison chart.
