Incredible service – so helpful
Excellent service! Chazile went above and beyond to prepare me for my travels to south east Asia. Very kind, sharp and added helpful bits of information that will be useful during my travels. Even created a vaccine booklet for me that I asked for to keep track of my vaccines for the future. Highly recommended The London Vaccination Clinic. Thanks again Chazile 🙂 Nick

Further Travel Health Advice for Indonesia
Indonesia is hot and humid throughout the year, and the sun is very strong, the island of Borneo straddles the equator. Take precautions against dehydration by drinking lots of bottled water. Use plenty of sun block and apply frequently. There are only two seasons: Dry- June to September; Rainy – the balance of the year.
To ensure good health throughout your Indonesian holiday, drink only bottled water, and avoid tap water, fountain drinks and ice cubes. In Jakarta, street vendors are everywhere, and locals prefer them to restaurants. These offer a great opportunity to sample many Indonesian favourites, but should be chosen with care. Diversity is the keyword when it comes to Indonesian cuisine. The Indonesian Muslims do not use alcohol. Keep alcohol consumption to a minimum, as it adds to the risk of dehydration.
Cities and major tourist towns have good private clinics, and adequate hospital services. If you are travelling to one of the smaller islands, it is best to check facilities beforehand.
Protect yourself with adequate travel health insurance which will cover your intended itinerary and activities.
Jakarta is considered safe, and people are welcoming and friendly. Major Islands that are used to tourists, such as Bali, are also welcoming.
