Travelling to Egypt? Here is what you need.
Egypt is a major UK destination - Cairo and the pyramids, Nile cruises to Luxor and Aswan, and Red Sea resorts at Sharm El Sheikh, Hurghada and Marsa Alam. Vaccine needs are moderate and depend heavily on beach-only vs cultural itinerary. NaTHNaC recommends Hepatitis A and Tetanus for most travellers to Egypt, with Hepatitis B, Rabies and Typhoid recommended for some travellers depending on itinerary. A Polio certificate can be required for stays over four weeks in a polio-transmission area. Aqua Travel Clinic in West Hampstead is operated by Aqua Pharmacy (GPhC-registered premises 1123406, owned by Naspram Pharma Limited) under the Superintendent Pharmacist at Aqua Pharmacy. We are a NaTHNaC-designated Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre and can usually fit you in same-week for Egypt travel vaccines. Book online in 60 seconds.
