Gap Year Travelling / Backpackers

If you are going on a gap year or on a round the world or expedition trip, make sure you get expert gap year advice before you travel. Students generally travel rougher and go "off the beaten track" more frequently than general holiday makers. This may mean that additional vaccines may be recommended and more detailed gap year health advice will be gone through with you.

Our travel health advisors are experienced at working out complex travel itineraries with students who are travelling through multiple countries/continents and can give specialist advice about keeping safe and remaining healthy whilst travelling.

We also sell a range of specialist products and treatments which are suitable for backpackers including: water purification products and sterile and first aid kits for those away from clean water and health care; treatments for travellers diarrhoea and a large range of insect repellents and mosquito nets. Please look at our products in our clinics or shop on line at our Tropshop.
