Global Underwriters operates Diplomat International, a policy built for travelers who do more than sightseeing. Their base coverage includes emergency medical care and evacuation, and you can add optional riders for Adventure Sports (mountaineering, rock climbing, hiking at altitude) and Extreme Sports. The carrier's track record spans decades of supporting active travelers on six continents.

Diplomat fits backpackers planning treks in the Himalayas, climbs in the Alps, or multi-week journeys combining beach time with mountain pursuits. It's competitive for those who want optional adventure coverage without forced restrictions, you get to choose which activities to add, and coverage limits stay high on evacuation and repatriation.
