A recent school excursion across Cambodia organised by Edventure Travel proved to be a life-changing experience for many of the students and teachers. We requested that the students and teachers respond to a few questions about their experiences on the final day of the tour. What they said is as follows:

What life skills did you learn during the tour?

“I gained resilience, public speaking skills, the ability to read the room and adjust. I learned teamwork and patience with the building project and a great sense of accomplishment when we finished it.”
– Heather N, student.

“How poverty affects the lives of everyone it touches and how I am grateful for my life.”
– Imala W, student.

“Gratitude and to take every chance and enjoy every moment.”
– Tom O, student.

“Being with the same group for a long period of time taught me to understand people are different.”
– Ruby C, student.

List your trip highlights

“Teaching local kids changed my sights on how lucky we were and are. I learned the ways of travel whilst also helping others.”
– Jaxon S, student.

“The temples and learning about Cambodia history complements my history course nicely. I loved looking at the sculptures and engravings at the temples and deciphering their meanings and discovering what they can tell us about the past.”
– Kate W, student.

“Elephant sanctuary, temples (in particular the Bayon), teaching at our sister school Krou Yeung, Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum.”
– Matilda W, student.

What would you say to other students considering an Edventure Travel tour?

“Do it. Edventure tours are an amazing experience unlike any other trip. You experience so much that you otherwise wouldn’t and with local guides and their knowledge you learn so many things about the country.”
– Ruby C, student.

What did you think about your tour leader and the local guides?

“The guides and leader were some of the happiest enthusiastic friendly people I have ever met. They create a great atmosphere and interact extremely well with the students.”
– Jasper, student

“We did a lot. But we are here for the experiences, and we certainly got that. I think the trip was well planned out and flexible enough. I loved it. I love Cambodia. It was everything a cultural tour should be. Great insights and lessons.”
– Natalie T, teacher.

“Great understanding of privilege and impacts of poverty.”
– Mick K, teacher.
