Health & Vaccinations
Which vaccinations are required for my particular trip?
The wide range of destinations we travel to presents
varying degrees of medical risk. For example, a visitor to India
might need certain immunizations that a visitor to Australia would
not.
We are not physicians and cannot provide you with specific
medical advice. We strongly encourage you to check with your
personal physician or local travel clinic at least 6 weeks before
embarking on your journey for up-to-date information regarding
medical precautions and immunizations for your particular travel
destination(s).
For comprehensive information please refer to the Center for
Disease Control's traveler's health information web site: www.cdc.gov/travel or call 800-232-4636.
We do provide a list of tips for staying healthy upon sign
up.
Will I be affected by high altitude?
Most destinations in our region present no altitude concerns
whatsoever. The vast majority of travelers to Bhutan or Yunnan,
China experience no effects. If you are traveling to Tibet, Nepal,
the passes of Central Asia or the Indian Himalayas, you may
experience the effects of high altitude, depending on where you go
and how quickly you ascend. Call a Travel Specialist to discuss
concerns you may have.
