Tuck Dartmouth logoTerraffinity Special Interest Group Travel

The Terraffinity division of Terraficionados Travel Society & Journeymakers (founded and operated by Chris Clark, T’03) is pleased to be working with the Tuck MBA program office once again to provide a pre-term International Adventure program for the incoming class!


The Tuck International Adventure in Peru features an 11 day / 10 night itinerary which is centered around the heart of the Sacred Valley in the Peruvian Andes. You will spend time in the vibrant city of Cuzco; you will have an opportunity live and work amongst the Huilloc community in a short homestay program; and you will undertake the Salkantay Trek into Machu Picchu – truly one of the most spectacular and mysterious ancient ruins on Earth. Tuck Partners are welcome to join!

Camping Peru

The Goal

The goal for this trip is three-fold:

  1. Provide a meaningful international travel experience where incoming Tuckies can bond deeply with each other before embarking on their 2 year journey at Tuck
  2. Combine a mix of ‘touring’, active content, and local community immersion to provide a well rounded perspective on the destination
  3. Have fun!!

We have been working with Tuck to offer these international adventures for incoming Tuckies for several years now. We are thrilled that students who have participated in these programs in the past have had a wonderful experience, and we’ve solicited their feedback on how to make the experience even better! This feedback is ingrained in our trip offering, and we expect these to be the best trips yet!
