The planning process is a key part of your travel program. We will work with you to develop your students’ global citizenship by blending your ideas with our extensive knowledge of the destinations. This is a collaborative process that can include other faculty and your study-abroad office. The result is a highly organized travel program that meets your academic objectives and fits your budget. Please complete the form below and we will start designing a proposal for you. Feel free to call us, if you prefer.

Here are some tips and questions to consider when planning your program:
DESTINATIONS
- What cities or towns do you want to visit?
- What sights do you want to see on the way?
- What activities do you need to include to meet academic goals?
LENGTH
- J term or Spring Break programs typically run 9-10 days. Summer programs tend to be longer.
PACE
- How full do you want your itinerary to be?
- Do you need to allow free time for your students?
- Will your students need time for journals, blogs, exploration and/or course work?
- We generally suggest having a full morning followed by an “easier” afternoon.
- Evenings are fantastic for activities such as walking tours.
- On arrival day, it is best not to schedule much in case there are flight delays.
GROUP SIZE
- We work with a minimum group size of 10 students.
- The more students you recruit the more affordable the program will be.
- We recommend a faculty/student ratio of 1:10.
YOUR CONTACTS
- Do you have local contacts that you would like your students to meet?
MEALS
- Breakfasts are always included.
- Do you want all dinners included?
- We recommend not including lunches unless necessary.
EXTEND YOUR STAY
- Your students already have paid for their flight over. If they have the time, they can extend their stay. Maybe they would like to see another country in Europe.
