When travelling to Africa, you will need a few vaccinations before departure, and we highly recommend talking to your doctor or local travel clinic before. At a minimum, and with any trip to Africa, travellers are recommended to get the following vaccinations as a precaution: the routine vaccinations such as measles, mumps, rubella, polio, tetanus, diphtheria, and whooping cough. Furthermore, hepatitis, typhoid, and yellow fever vaccinations could be required, as well as anti-malaria treatment.
