Is Chile Safe?

Do I need to purchase additional insurance?

Do I need to bring extra medications?

Yes. You should bring basic medications in addition to any prescriptions that you need. Consider bringing a small kit with Ibuprofen, Tums, Ant-Acids, etc.

Is the water safe to drink?

Potable water is available at our lodge. We do recommend that you bring or purchase chlorine tablets or a Steri-pen to ensure that the mountain water is potable if you need to refill during a tour.

Are showers available?

Showers are available at the lodge

Should I bring any luxuries?

We recommend that you bring a designated change of warm, comfy clothes for lounging around the lodge. We won’t have a lot of down time but you will want to be comfortable when we do.
