In these short, interactive panel discussions, we give students and teachers an opportunity to engage with their destination from the comfort of their own homes. While our Tour Directors are itching to get on the road and share their country in person, we’re thankful that they took the time to speak with future travelers about food, culture, and so much more. Tune back for more editions!
A Taste of France
Hear what happens when three students from Detroit, Michigan chat with teacher-turned-Tour Director from Southern France. It’s a virtual sharing of travel memories, fun foods, and cultural interpretations in our first Tour Director Cultural Exchange video.
“My island is your island, too”
Once an aspiring chemical engineer, Lola stumbled upon educational travel several years ago and never looked back! Now a successful Tour Director who leads trips all over Puerto Rico, Lola generously invited us into her home (virtually, of course) for a discussion on the local culture, learning together with her student groups, and seeing the ocean for the first time.
“The world is like a book—those who don’t travel read only one page”
How do our Tour Directors help travelers create memories that will last a lifetime? It’s a combination of culturally rich destinations, engaging activities at every stop, and an always-positive attitude. Hear each side of the travel story in this discussion on Italy, international travel, and more.
“I wanted to share my love for Ireland with others”
Listen as our Tour Director, Program Leader, and student panel discuss their role models and inspiration for educational travel. Then, discover how the shared history between the Celts and Bretons makes Ireland a must-visit destination for French classes in the latest edition of our Tour Director Cultural Exchange.
“No matter what you do, do it with passion”
After working at a law firm in Madrid for just one year, Joaquin set off to improve his English through traveling. Fifteen years later, he’s walking proof that when you’re bitten by the travel bug, there’s no going back! Join Joaquin and our student travelers for a show-and-tell of tapas, travel memories, and more as they discuss the silver linings of extra time at home and look forward to a future full of travel experiences.
