Due to Cambodia's rather basic health infrastructure, you may consider immunisation for cholera, typhoid, tetanus, hepatitis A and B, polio and tuberculosis. Malaria mosquitoes is widespread, but you should be safe in the main tourist areas. If venturing into the fields and forest, it is advisable to apply mosquito repellent on exposed skin. Drink only bottled water. Avoid taking ice. Getting travel insurance before arriving in Cambodia is also a good idea.
