Best source: Check the cdc website for health information specific to regions you are visiting. You are going to a high altitude and the methods to prevent high altitude mountain sickeness are not unique to machu piccu. So if you need immunizations, etc. Check cdc.Gov. Treatment and prevention of hams, is something to talk to your doctor about, or you are in do it yourself mode.
