Trek Description:
Business school is a wildly diverse and foreign experience for many and we hope to embrace that sentiment by going on the most adventurous and exotic MTrek out there (ok, we’re tied with the Galapagos). Welcome to Chile, the land of fire and ice!
First, we will explore the history, culture, and nightlife of Santiago as we all get to know each other before hopping on a quick flight to a drastically different environment.
Our trip takes us to the Atacama desert, the driest place on Earth. If the red wine and pisco sours don’t quench your thirst, then the stellar stargazing environment, high-altitude lagoons, and Andean geothermal geyser fields will. In Atacama, we will explore landscapes you cannot really find anywhere else on Earth and will learn just how much there is to marvel at in this intergalactic desert.
We will then head back to Santiago for a free day to recharge, reminisce, and rally before we head back to the northern hemisphere.
