Whether you're heading to the Costa del Sol or trekking in Nepal, a little health preparation is the difference between a memorable trip and a forgettable one.
Book your travel consultation early
Six to eight weeks before departure gives most vaccines time to take effect. Some, like rabies, need a course of three doses across three to four weeks.
Vaccines worth thinking about
- Hepatitis A for most of Africa, Asia and South America
- Typhoid for South Asia
- Yellow Fever for parts of Africa and South America
- Rabies for rural and adventure travel
