Traveler Orientation Program
To help you prepare for your international experiences, we've added a new orientation day at the beginning of each tour. So once you arrive in your departure hub city, you'll get to meet your chaperones and fellow student travelers before you embark on tour.

As a group you'll stay overnight and complete orientation activities together the next day. Your chaperone will go over your itinerary and the group guidelines as well as answer any last-minute questions. Then you'll all head back to the airport and board your flight to your international destination.

Included Gratuities
In past years students have had to budget additional money for tipping their Tour Directors, bus drivers and cruise staff. This year these gratuities will be included in your Tour Fee. So you'll have one less thing to think about as you plan for departure.

Upgraded Meals
To give you a better taste of the regions you'll visit, each itinerary will now include a variety of upgraded meals. So you'll get an even better combination of local cuisines and familiar fare, to keep you well nourished and energized for each day's activities.

Upgraded Hotels
This year's tours will also feature some fabulous new hotels, in better locations than ever. And by staying closer to the city center, you'll spend less time traveling to each attraction.
