marylizcat Posted July 19, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 19, 2011 No visas needed. We got the Fodor's guide from Amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athurstance Posted July 19, 2011 #3 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Assuming you hold a full British passport then, no, you don't need any visas. If you hold some other kind of passport you need to check more carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlemissmanics Posted July 24, 2011 #4 Share Posted July 24, 2011 I'm on a different cruise, but going to the same places. Does anyone know if any vaccinations are needed? I tried searching online but ended up more confused than I was to start with, and figured people with experience would be the best to ask! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capasamari Posted July 24, 2011 #5 Share Posted July 24, 2011 The best person to ask is your GP's practice nurse, as they will have the up-to-date recommendations from the Department of Health. Take a list of all your ports of call. We have had Typhoid, Tetanus and Hepatitis A, and I think a Polio booster. Carol x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essexlass2 Posted July 24, 2011 #6 Share Posted July 24, 2011 No, we've never needed injections for the Caribbean ports that you mention, although we did check with our practice nurse before our first visit there. Having said that, we never travel anywhere abroad unless our 'usual' injections (i.e. those already mentioned by Capasamari) are all up to date.

I am fortunate enough to do quite a lot of travel and like you have the 'basic' innoculations up to date. Most places have a recommended list, as I never trust insurance companies I always ensure that I have any injections that is recommended for the place you visit.
