If the flight chaos hasn’t managed to put you off and you have flights booked for this great occasion, then consider these points when entering the country for the first time.

• Make sure you are inoculated and have had vaccinations against the chances of catching a number of serious diseases while out there. Be sure to check with your GP.
• Take a first aid kit with you as medical facilities, especially in rural areas, aren’t always up to what you’d expect.
• Only drink bottled water as the local tap water may not be suitable to drink.
• Always keep an eye on your belongings, cash and stick to the main tourist areas as crime is rife in this country.
• Finally, be sure to purchase travel insurance that covers you for the trip. Oh and let’s hope for an England win!
