Adventurers

We understand the lure of adventure travel. The excitement, the challenge & the novelty involved in tackling an adventurous holiday makes the experience irresistible. But with that experience may also come some health risks, & The Global Traveler can provide the way to avoid or minimize those health risks.

Our priority is to look after you, & help you look after yourself while challenging yourself. Enjoy one-stop service, delivered by staff with the most experience & understanding of adventure travelers needs.

For more than 20 years, we have been learning about what really helps adventure travellers, (and what doesn’t!), & are pleased to offer the following range of services:

• We provide you with individual medical advice on international health risks on a location by location basis, personalised to your itinerary & your activities
• We can offer advice or assessment of any existing medical issues, visa application health checks & provide fitness to travel certificates

• We provide you with a personal assessment of malaria risk & advice on strategies to prevent insect-borne disease
• We provide all our travellers with written material covering health concerns

• Treat yourself with our customised medical kits for adventure tours. These vary from small individual gastro-packs, to large trekking medical kits.

• We can supply an international directory of local medical facilities & English speaking doctors in many overseas countries
• If you have serious problems while away, we can liaise with international emergency medical evacuation & insurance services.
• Health alerts appear via The Global Traveler website

• Our experience managing travellers illness after return means you can have a medical review if illness has occurred whilst overseas or if you have symptoms on return
• Referral point for infectious diseases specialist opinion.

• We provide all our travellers an opportunity for them to tell us about the health aspects of their travel, & help us provide better services, by inviting them to complete our on-line “Welcome Home” survey
