Hi Sarah,
Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you.
My friend tells me it would take around 30-45 mins to have the herceptin infusion, with flushing before and after taking it to about 2 hrs. Every 2nd treatment she also has bone enhancer and that can bring it up to 3-4 hrs but we will avoid that on the trip!
Cheers
Annie
