Welcome alumni and friends,
We are pleased to offer an exciting selection of educational itineraries created especially for our alumni who love to explore the world with like-minded adventurers and experienced tour operators. Your family and friends are welcome to join you, too!
Most alumni tours are considered moderately active; travellers should anticipate walking 1-3 hours or more each day at a reasonable pace. Depending on the destination, you should be prepared for uneven terrain (cobblestone streets, small hills, and stairs).
Our travel partners work hard to ensure your safety throughout your trip. Should you have any questions regarding health and safety protocols for a particular trip, please check with the tour operator. Also, we recommend all alumni travelling abroad to visit the Government of Canada website for travel advice and advisories prior to depature.
Be sure to check out helpful links for travellers before you go, and when you return, please tell us about your trip.
Bon voyage!
