Immunizations?
If you are traveling to the jungle in the north of the country, you will probably need some booster shots for yellow fever and malaria.
Cuzco and the rest of Peru is arid enough to not need this, even if you're planning the trek to Macchu Picchu.

Make copies of your passport, carry one copy in your wallet and save a copy in your email.
