We do not publish medical advice here. Vaccines, prophylaxis and travel health care depend on your history, the time of year and the areas you will visit, and should be discussed with a health professional four to six weeks in advance.
Look for a travel medicine centre in your country, or your family doctor, and take the list of destinations you plan to visit.

Otherwise, the usual travel precautions apply: bottled water, sunscreen, and common sense with valuables on show.
