Travel Insurance Reviews GeoBlue Trekker Essential

The GeoBlue Trekker Essential is a multi-trip Medical plan which offers emergency medical coverage while you are traveling abroad. This plan covers trips up to 70 days in length (per trip) that you will be taking outside the country during the year. The Trekker Essential plan does require you to have primary health insurance in place, but there is no exclusion for pre-existing conditions. This plan has lower limits than the Trekker Choice plan.

GeoBlue Trekker Essential
So far the best type of insurance - wasn’t needed. I felt comfortable knowing we had it. Will be happy to rate it if I need to use it

Thanks for show of interest,

Although I did ask for doctors or hospitals in network in the area where I was staying and got a response after three days, I ended up not needing the care after all.

I was not able to go on the planned cruise because of health reasons, but I was able to cancel my GeoBlue Trekker Essential Plan without any problems or hassles. Great plan, have been recommending it to others.

I did not make a claim; however, I put in two trips because I was comparing the cost of single trip vs year long insurance. I accidentally left in the second trip so the first trip was before my coverage started. I called and within the day, the date was changed to the correct date. Good customer service.

I didn’t use the plan this time but what a relief knowing it was there if I needed it. On one cruise I was on, a customer told me he didn’t have insurance and it cost him $100,000 dollars. He had to be airlifted from the ship and he was normally in good health so, we get this every time we travel. Peace Of Mind. Comfort knowing your covered just in case. Thank you.
