Innoculations requirements for Galapagos

[Hoosierheadhunter]

We are booked on a June cruise to the Galapagos and I am trying to find out if we need any immunization innoculations before we go. I have looked at Celebrity's "BEFORE YOU GO" link and other online info. However, nothing is clear. All the Celebrity site says is that it is the responsibility of the traveler to show up with the necessary travel and health documents. Do any of you previous or future Galapagos cruisers from the US have any knowledge?

Go to http://www.cdc.gov and look for the Traveler's Health link at the left side.

 

Bon Voyage

We are not planning to get any inoculations. What day will you be sailing on the Xpedition in June? My husband and I will be on the June 24th sailing.:)

We will be on the June 3rd sailing. Can't wait!

We are leaving on March 9. We visitied the traveller's clinic and saw a Dr that we know and respect, he suggested Hep A and typhoid - there is a combo shot called vivaxin (in Canada), also an oral anti diareah (sp?) - Dukoral -and a high altitude medicine for QUito -Apo-Acetzolamide. We are doing all that. Took the shots and the oral medicine. SO there is another opinion. He is going surfing in Equador, and is taking the same meds ( not the altitude though)
