I have always used your company for travel insurance and been very pleased with the people on the phone helping me.
I have fortunately never had to file a claim so, I cant respond to that part of your service but what I have experienced has been A+.

Luckily we didn't need to use but we are surely glad we took out the insurance. People who joined our tour from other parts of the U.S. dealt with adverse weather conditions. Would not travel anymore on a large trip without insurance. Kind of like homeowner's insurance -- nice to have but hope you never need to use.
