Testimonials

Contact us to arrange a chat with a teacher near you who has used Educating Adventures.

"I believe the memories created on an international school trip can drastically enhance a student's entire learning experience. Being immersed in real-life learning is the most powerful educational experiences one can gain."

Neil Curran, Grace Lutheran College

As a result of this trip, we have three students considering picking up mechanical engineering at university, and a host of students considering STEM-related A-Levels. An action-packed, awe-inspiring week away. I can't wait to go back next year!"

Teacher, Harris City Academy Crystal Palace

Our Partnerships

By planting trees we can help clean the air, fight climate change and bring forests back to life.

We care about sustainable travel.

For the eco-conscious, travelling can present somewhat of a conundrum, and we are no exception, we send hundreds of students on life-changing educational and cultural experiences around the world - this, unfortunately, adds up to a lot of air miles and a lot of carbon emissions.

We’d be the first to admit our footprint isn’t perfect and with calls for unprecedented changes, we are happy to announce a new partnership to continue our sustainable development. We are proud to have partnered with Eden Reforestation Projects a global community that’s inspiring positive change in our world, to help reduce the impact of travelling.

"Every time a student is booked onto a trip we plant a tree on your behalf, making you part of a community changing the world"

Our Partners have so far planted over 250 million trees throughout Africa, contributing to positive social and environmental impacts in the areas that need it most.

Why trees?

By planting trees for every traveller, we can also:

  • Provide education and employment to local communities in Africa.
  • Restore key habitats for biodiversity.
  • Improve the quantity and quality of water supplies.
  • Remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and improve air quality.
  • Reduce soil erosion creating better agriculture.

Eden Projects have tree nurseries and reforestation sites in areas where tree planting is needed most.

Financial Security

For our UK Based Schools, Educating Adventures Limited has an Air Travel Organisers License (ATOL) with the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). Educating Adventures Limited ATOL number is ATOL 9231. ATOL protects customers from losing money or being stranded abroad. It does this by carrying out checks on the tour operators and travel organisers it licenses and requiring a financial guarantee called a bond. If a tour operator goes out of business the CAA will make a refund to the customer or if the customer is abroad they will arrange for the customer to finish their holiday and fly home.
