Educational travel is an extension of the classroom. Partnering with a trusted advisor who understands both pedagogy and logistics ensures that every tour is academically meaningful, operationally efficient, safe, and memorable for students and faculty alike.
EDUCATION EXPERTISE THAT ALIGNS WITH LEARNING OUTCOMES
We are headed up by a professional educator with a Doctorate in Educational Leadership (Ed.D.) who has vast experience designing and leading study tours. Her unique perspective ensures that every itinerary is intentionally aligned with academic objectives, curriculum standards, and meaningful learning outcomes—not just sightseeing.
CUSTOMIZED, CURRICULUM-FOCUSED EXPERIENCES AT A COMPETITIVE PRICE
Every institution has different goals. A MTS travel advisor works with faculty and administrators to create customized itineraries based upon our VIP rates that reinforce classroom instruction, support specific courses or programs, and provide immersive cultural, historical, scientific, or professional learning opportunities.
TIME SAVINGS AND REDUCED ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN
Planning an international or domestic study tour requires coordinating transportation, accommodations, activities, meals, insurance, safety protocols, and communication with multiple vendors. A travel advisor manages these logistics, allowing educators to focus on teaching and student engagement instead of administrative details.
RISK MANAGEMENT AND STUDENT SAFETY
Student travel requires careful planning and contingency preparation. Our experienced MTS travel advisor can help schools navigate travel documentation, health and safety considerations, emergency planning, supplier vetting, and travel disruptions, providing peace of mind for administrators, faculty, students, and families.
PROFESSIONAL RELATIONSHIPS THAT DELIVER VALUE
Established partnerships with trusted hotels, transportation providers, guides, museums, educational organizations, and cultural institutions help create high-quality experiences while maximizing the travel budget. A travel advisor can often provide access to exclusive educational opportunities and local expertise that are difficult to arrange independently. If travel disruptions happen, you are not on your own—we provide real-time assistance to help resolve issues and keep your vacation on track.

Scale, size, and location of educational tours vary widely. Our background in Educational Study Tour programming gives us the expertise to plan and execute a fully customized trip. We can plan with curricular needs in mind from start to finish, also leading the tour if needed.
If you simply need bookings, detail reporting, and money collection, that can be done as well.

FLEXIBLE SERVICES
Percentage Based Planning Rates
Based on group size:
9-19 people, 2% fee based on total trip value
20-50 people, 3% fee based on total trip value
51-100 people, 4% fee based on total trip value
101+ people, 5% fee based on trip total
For groups like this, there is not necessarily the benefit of economies of scale, where the more participants delivers lower costs. In fact, more individuals means fewer accommodation options that can accommodate the size, limiting supply and often increasing prices. Additionally, more students means more buses, guides, etc. that can also contribute to the overall cost.
