I am backpacking round OZ for 6 months at the end of this month, I am leaving from the UK. I need insurance pretty sharpish to confirm my trip, but I am confused as to what one is the best policy to have considering I'll be surfing and skydiving I expect?!! what is the best policy I can get for the cheapest price? Medical cover is my main concern.I have got a quote from boots fro £170 and they offer 10 million on health care and one from endsleigh for £140 but they only offer 1 million medical cover. I am so confused about what to go for!! Please, if you can help that'd be great!!

Make sure to check the policy details, as additional travel health insurance may be necessary when traveling to high-risk countries or participation in high-risk sports, such as skydiving.
Read the policy carefully.

Good luck and have a wonderful time!!

Also check the policy on long trips.
I have often read in holiday insurance policies that they are for 90 days or for 3 months maximum.
Have a good time in OZ, and check the overland Perth to Alice Springs tour, I think it was the best tour I have ever done.
