Stay Healthy During Your Travels
Vaccinations are your first line of defence against diseases that can be contracted while travelling abroad. Many illnesses are preventable, but they can pose serious health risks if not addressed before your departure. Understanding which vaccines are recommended for Kenya can make the difference between a trip filled with adventure and one marred by illness. At Croydon Travel Clinic, we take your health seriously and provide tailored vaccination advice to ensure a smooth journey.
For travellers visiting Kenya, several vaccines are recommended to safeguard against diseases such as Yellow Fever, Typhoid Fever, Hepatitis A, and more. Yellow Fever vaccination is particularly important, as it is a requirement for entry into the country for travellers coming from areas with a risk of the virus. Other vaccines, such as those for Malaria prophylaxis and routine vaccinations (like MMR), should also be considered before your trip. Our expert pharmacists, Mehran Mozooni and Samit Patel, will assess your specific travel itinerary and health history to create a personalised vaccination schedule.
Before you embark on your Kenyan adventure, it's crucial to schedule a pre-travel consultation. During this appointment, our skilled team will evaluate your health needs and provide recommendations based on the latest health advice and travel vaccines available. We can also discuss other health concerns, including those related to food, water safety, and local healthcare access. Don’t leave your health to chance; book your consultation today through our [booking page](/booking) and ensure you’re fully prepared for your journey.
After receiving the necessary vaccinations, it's essential to maintain health precautions while in Kenya. This includes adhering to food and water safety tips, such as drinking bottled water only, avoiding street food, and being mindful of your surroundings to avoid mosquito bites. If you find yourself unwell, make sure to know the local medical facilities and always have your travel insurance readily available. For any concerns during your trip, our pharmacy team at Croydon Travel Clinic is just a phone call away. Stay informed, and enjoy your travels worry-free!
