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.

Peace of mind from the huge expense for medical evacuation is wonderful. Years ago it cost a year's salary to bring a friend back from Grenada, so this is a small price to pay.

I can not say how satisfied I am with the plan until I have the need to file a claim. In that event I will be able to judge whether the plan delivers what I expect it will.

The reason I would not recommend the plan is that I have no experience with filing a claim, thankfully. I do feel the plan is a good one for us and know the reviews are good.
Eugene B. would not recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

It gave us peace of mind knowing we were covered in the event of a major catastrophe.
Repatriation insurance was required by our walking tour group.

I liked phone service while buying plan, I was talking to the representative, she is the most wonderful service person of USA! She was SO helpful, friendly! I only will buy insurance in your company in a future, since I travel overseas so often! Thanks!
