GeoBlue – Trekker Essential

Editor Review

GeoBlue Travel Medical and International Health Insurance logo

The Good: A basic multi-trip travel medical plan for individuals and families from the U.S. heading abroad. Ideal for travelers under age 85. This plan covers a traveler’s medical concerns for multiple trips over a 12-month period.

The Drawbacks: Medical benefits for adventure activities are limited. No AD&D included.

The Bottom Line: This is a good all-around travel medical insurance plan for travelers planning multiple trips abroad over the period of a year.
