shots are not necessary.
Upon your arrival at Lima's airport you will receive your immigration card (TAM) which exempts from

FOOD & DRINKS



Peruvian cuisine offers a wide range of typical dishes from the Coast, High Andes and Jungle/
Rainforest.
In Peru you can find restaurants that offer dishes from US$3.00
Drink only bottled water, which is widely available. Do not drink tap water, even in major hotels. Agua
con gas is carbonated; agua sin gas is plain.

Avoid eating from street vendors.
ALTITUDE SICKNESS

During your visits to cities located over the 8200 feet above sea level, like Cusco (11,000 ft) or Lake
Titicaca (13,000 ft), shortness of breath and heart pounding are normal, given the scarcity of oxygen.
Some people may experience headache, loss of appetite, extreme fatigue and nausea. Most symptoms
develop the first day at high altitude, though, occasionally, travelers have delayed reactions. The best
advice is to rest on your first day in the highlands. Drink plenty of liquids, including the local remedy:
mate de coca or coca - leaf tea (It’s perfectly legal). Avoid alcohol, sodas and heavy food. You can
avoid altitude sickness taking 500 mg a day of acetazolamide (Diamox or Soroche Pills) taken 24 hours
before departure and continued up to 48 hours after arrival to these cities. Acetazolamide should not be
given to persons allergic to sulfa drugs.
