Expedición a la Tierra (EALT)
A Dual Vision: Tourism and Science in San Pedro de Atacama
Expedition to the Earth (EALT) is a project that blends educational tourism with scientific research in the fascinating environment of the Atacama Desert. EALT is divided into two main areas, each with a distinct mission and vision yet interconnected.
Tourism
Immerse Yourself in a World of Information and Discovery
Tourism invites visitors to explore the Atacama Desert in an enriching and educational way. We offer an experience that combines adventure with learning, where each tour is an opportunity to discover the rich history of this unique region.
Tours help fund our second area, ensuring that each visitor contributes to the advancement of science and conservation. By choosing to explore with us, you not only enjoy a memorable experience but also support scientific research and efforts to preserve the territory.
