Planning Autumn Travel? Don’t Forget Your Vaccines

Planning Autumn Travel? Don’t Forget Your Vaccines

12 / Sep

Autumn is a favourite time of year for holidays. With the busiest summer weeks behind us, many people choose this season for city breaks, warm-weather escapes or quieter trips abroad. Whether you’re heading away for a long weekend or planning a longer journey, it’s important to check if you need any travel vaccines before you set off. Many destinations still carry risks that are easy to prepare for with the right protection.

At Harmony Travel Clinic in Harrow, located within Murrays Chemist on Kenton Road, we provide easy, walk-in access to a full range of travel vaccinations. Our travel health specialist can review your itinerary, look at any previous vaccinations and help you understand which vaccines are recommended for your trip. Each traveller’s needs are slightly different depending on the destination, time of year, health background and planned activities.

For autumn travellers, commonly advised vaccines include Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Tetanus/Diphtheria/Polio, Meningitis ACWY and, for certain destinations, Yellow Fever. If you’re planning long-haul travel—to Southeast Asia, Africa or South America—you may require additional vaccines such as Hepatitis B, Rabies or Japanese Encephalitis. All vaccinations are given only when clinically appropriate.

Your travel plans also matter. If your trip involves outdoor activities, rural stays, hiking, wildlife experiences, cruises, food tours or adventure outings, you may need extra protection. We can also discuss malaria precautions and provide antimalarial medication when suitable.

Even if you’re travelling on short notice, we can still help. Many vaccines begin offering protection quickly, and our clinic provides same-day access wherever possible. This makes travel vaccines in HA3 ideal for families, students and professionals who need prompt advice without long waiting times. We are also easily reached from Kenton Station and Northwick Park, making visits simple and convenient.

Preparing for your trip with the right health guidance can help prevent illness and give you added confidence while away. Whether it’s a short city break or a multi-stop long-haul journey, we’re here to make sure you’re ready.

Travel safely this autumn.
