Wake up bright and early for your first day of volunteering at a Mobile Clinic! Staffed by local practitioners, our clinics offer basic medical treatment and preventative screenings to low-income patients. After returning to the hotel in the afternoon, we will hold our second Engaged Education Roundtable Discussion, focusing on the relationship between poverty and education. 

After dinner, we will head to Lima’s Magic Water Circuit, where music, water, and laser lights are combined to create an impressive show. 

Help MEDLIFE bring free healthcare to low-income communities with another day of volunteering on a Mobile Clinic. Upon arrival, we will work together to set up each station. Volunteers will spend the morning shadowing medical professionals as they provide treatment and identify patients in need of follow-up care. 

After a quick stop at the hotel, head to the airport for your flight to your next destination (domestic flight Lima - Cusco included). Arrive in Cusco no later than 10:00pm and get ready for an exciting rest of the week!

The final day of volunteering will be spent in the Sacred Valley, working on a Healthy Homes initiative. Projects may include constructing a greenhouse, building efficient fuel stoves, renovating homes, and more. 

After returning to the hotel, we will gather to reflect on all that you’ve experienced this week. You’ll be invited to consider how you can continue making a difference even once you’ve returned home.

Wake up early to catch the best views of the famed Inca fortress of Machu Picchu, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that has been astonishing travelers for years. Your historian guide will lead you on a tour of the ruins, visiting the temples, terraces, and all the best spots for photos. After a day of exploring, the group will return to Cusco in the evening.

Please bear in mind that a copy of your passport is required for the purchase of Machu Picchu tickets. Availability is limited and tickets can only be guaranteed once issued. Lunch and dinner are not included today. 

On your final day with MEDLIFE, you’ll have the chance to see one more area of Cusco that MEDLIFE works within! Hear from community leaders for our third and final Engaged Education Roundtable Discussion, and connect with community members through a much beloved local activity: Soccer!  

In the afternoon, we will continue learning about Peruvian culture with a visit to an Incan textile center and experience a traditional offering ceremony to mother earth. 

After a quick stop at the hotel, enjoy time exploring the beautiful streets of Cusco with your chaperone, finding the perfect souvenirs to bring back for friends and family!

The adventure has come to an end. After breakfast at the hotel, head to the airport for onward travel or your flight home. We wish you safe and happy travels!
