If you have private health cover, this will be covered.. but if not, it's better to go with vaccinations than without.
Ask for the Typhoid capsules - they are $5 cheaper than the injection per person. They are small and you will need to take 4 (one every second day at least 4 weeks before departing) They cost us $40 per pack.
Polio will need to be up to date and this is free.
Hep A was more expensive, $70 per person.
Nothing you can really do to avoid costs, with medicines, they dont really vary. But are worth having - if you get sick it will cost a hell of a lot more!
