At Rise & Shield, we’re more than just another travel insurance company.

We’re a team of adventurers, explorers, and travel enthusiasts who understand the thrill of discovery and the importance of protection. 

Our journey began with a simple idea: to create travel insurance that speaks to the heart of every traveller, from the seasoned globetrotter to the weekend wanderer.

Our story

Founded by a group of friends who bonded over a shared love for adventure, we’ve trekked the Himalayas, dived into the Great Barrier Reef, and navigated bustling cityscapes. 

Along the way, we faced unexpected challenges that made us realise the need for reliable, comprehensive travel insurance tailored to the unique experiences of every traveller. 

That’s how Rise & Shield was born.
