International travel is back with a bang and while much has changed, travel insurance is still the best way to travel with all the protections you'd usually have at home. 

It's a portable version of health, home, contents, life, public liability, and car rental excess insurance all packaged in one to take on holidays with you. But with all those insurances piled into one product, navigating your way through the terms and conditions to find the loopholes can be very challenging.

Use our travel insurance comparison to compare over 80 features of 32 travel insurance policies to make sure you're getting the best cover for your needs when on holidays.
