About Us > What We Do

WHAT WE DO

You provide the student group, we'll handle the rest. It's what we do.

WE HANDLE TOUR LOGISTICS

Choose one of hundreds of tried-and-true itineraries, or design a travel program all your own with the help of an expert passports Tour Advisor. Then just recruit your group. We'll handle the rest:

Provide recruitment resources and fundraising ideas
Process participant payments and service billing inquiries
Book high-quality accommodations, meals, guides, flights, entrances and more!

WE PROVIDE SAFETY & SECURITY

LIABILITY INSURANCE

School board on your back? All participants enroll on their tour through a direct agreement with passports. This means your tour won't be school sponsored, so you (and your administration!) don't have to worry about a thing.

OVERSEAS COVERAGE

Vital on-tour medical and baggage coverage are included at no cost on all passports programs. We wouldn't dream of sending participants overseas without it!

PEACE OF MIND

passports is a prominent, respected tour provider with longstanding travel connections. You'll have a team of representatives stateside, and a tour director with you every step of the way overseas.

WE SUPPORT TOURS OVERSEAS

Standard passports programs include a full-time tour director. They're experienced travel professionals, specially-trained to lead groups of American students overseas. They know about the places you'll see on tour, and speak the language of the area. They care about getting to know you and your group, and they fix any bumps in the road to make sure your trip really is the experience of a lifetime.

WE FACILITATE LEARNING

PRE-DEPARTURE

Browse curated lesson plans penned by passports staff and group organizers, linked to the sights you'll see on tour. Then connect with traveling teachers nationwide with our online forum.

ON TOUR

Don't just see it, experience it! passports activities provide on-tour experiential learning opportunities, designed to get students out of their comfort zones and interacting with new cultures.

RE-ENTRY

Students can reflect on their new experiences in their travel journal, or enter a passports traveler contest and reflect through videos, music, art, essays or more.

WE OPERATE NATIONWIDE

passports sends hundreds of student groups overseas per year on our popular catalog programs. If you're interested in a catalog itinerary, chances are there is another group in the country who is traveling on the same tour at the same time. As a service to you, you can choose to combine with one of these groups. It will keep the cost of your tour down, and you'll make some new friends in the process!
