Look up your destination on Fit for Travel or the TravelHealthPro country guide.

Book with our nurse

  1. At least 6 weeks before you travel, ask MARA or phone us for a travel appointment. Tell us every country and region you're visiting.
  2. First appointment: the nurse gives advice and orders any vaccines you need (we don't keep travel vaccines in stock).
  3. Second appointment: you receive the vaccines. Complex trips need more time, so book early.

Charges

Some travel vaccines are not free on the NHS and are given on a private prescription. There is also a £15 charge for travel health advice. We will tell you the costs before you commit.
