Questions Before You Get in Touch?
Find quick answers about planning a student trip, sample itineraries, risk assessments, travel insurance and how we support schools before departure.
How do I begin designing a student trip?
Planning a student trip starts with contacting us to share your preferences and requirements. From there, you’ll promote your trip within your school community, then make your deposit and complete your students’ paperwork.

Do you provide risk assessments for schools?
Your students’ health and safety are paramount, which is why we undertake careful risk assessments for every tour, and assure all our staff are trained in risk management.
Before the tour, we’ll provide a detailed risk assessment for almost every activity in your itinerary. This comprehensive risk assessment is given to your school before the trip is agreed upon.
During your tour, we’ll consult with you and other travelling staff members about any potential safety issues. We’ll always do this before we brief your students on the day’s upcoming itinerary.
Occasionally, we may decide to skip or modify part of the tour program if we deem it to have become unsafe for some reason. For example, we’d modify your program if a severe weather event was approaching an area your students were travelling through.

What are your booking conditions?
To gain your school executive team’s approval for your student trip, you’ll need to show them detailed booking conditions. Since the onset of COVID-19, when many tours were cancelled, this has become even more important.
Our booking conditions are clear and transparent, especially in relation to cancellations, deferments and refunds. We don’t hide behind the fine print.

How does travel insurance work?
For groups departing from Australia, your school executive team will also want to see you’ve sourced comprehensive travel insurance with adequate coverage.
As authorised agents, we sell group policies from several travel insurance companies. We’ve done the research for you and offer a selection of excellent insurance policies with clear conditions and payment schedules.
If you choose one of our travel insurance policies, we’ll provide you with the policy details along with terms and conditions, coverage amounts and the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).
Please note, we can only arrange travel insurance for Australian schools, not worldwide.
We do ask that all student groups travel on the same travel insurance policy together, whether it be one of our group travel insurance policies or your school’s own insurance policy. This ensures all travellers have the same inclusions and coverage amounts. It also means we only deal with one insurance provider should a group incident occur.

Can I ask for a reference from another school?
Yes, we can provide you with a comprehensive list of referees from Australian and overseas schools who’ve previously travelled with us. Contact us, and we’ll provide a list of schools who are excited to share their stories.
