Our policies provide you with cover for a number of different activities including trekking, bungee jumping and a variety of watersports to name but a few.

If cycling for you is all about the thrill of mountain biking downhill, crossing the finish line at a track or road event, or showing off your BMX or freestyle tricks, and you want to experience new cycling challenges across the world, then our Extreme Cycle Travel insurance may be just what you are looking for.
