Go Travel Insurance celebrate their 10th Birthday…

…with 2 week European policies now more than £2 cheaper than all those years ago!

2,500,000 customers can’t be wrong, that’s the number of people who have trusted Go Travel Insurance to protect them on their holidays since their inception 10 years ago, when a 2 week European single trip was £15.95.

Founded by Andy Taylor in 1998, Go Travel Insurance started out with just a team of three. Now, with 100 employees, Go Travel Insurance is an established online and call centre travel insurance provider.

Andy sold the business to Christian Young in 2004, with Andy remaining on the board of directors as Underwriting & Business Development Director.

Christian Young, CEO, said “We are very proud to see Go Travel Insurance enjoy its 10th year. We have always put our customers at the forefront of our business and offer quality travel insurance products at affordable prices and we provide a range of policies to suit all customer needs”

Based in Basildon, Essex Go Travel Insurance has grown in stature and now incorporates AA Travel Insurance in it’s portfolio, amongst others.

Go has been recognised by the industry a number of times. The Consumer Intelligence survey placed Go Travel Insurance in the top ten travel insurance providers in 2004 and in 2007 Travolution rewarded the Go website with the 'best travel insurance website’ award, followed by runner up in 2008.

A partner of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office’s 'Know Before You Go’ travel awareness campaign Go Travel Insurance provides an easy to use website, a call centre open 7 days a week and an in-house claims team for immediate assistance.

Today Go offer an even better product and value for money than 10 years ago, and with a wide array available, customers can choose from single trip, annual multi trip, backpacker, winter sports, golf and cruise cover,

And don’t forget, a 2 week European single trip policy is now only £13.63, over £2 LESS than 10 years ago!
