Unearthed runs challenging, overseas adventures for young people that help shape who they become. While overseas the students will take on responsibility for all aspects of the itinerary planning and logistics. Under the skillful supervision of an Unearthed Leadership Instructor, students manage the team budget, transport, food, team briefings and sightseeing for the entire group.
A key element of the Unearthed experience is a community service project. The project will take place in a small community along the shores of Lake Titicaca during which time students will have the chance to interact with local people and contribute to a sustainable development project with the aim to work on village infrastructure – building projects supporting community based tourism and the local economy. It provides a genuine cultural immersion experience not available to the ordinary tourist. The team will also complete a trek through the Sacred Valley to explore the natural beauty and rural landscape of Peru. In addition to the project and trek, the students travel back-packer style to explore the sights and visit places of interest along their journey.
