Introduction
Since 2009 we’ve been offering all-inclusive international travel programs for students interested developing real world travel skills while exploring some of the world's most interesting places as part of a small group.
Our programs seize every opportunity to practice foreign language, navigation, scheduling, collaboration, and budgeting skills with real world activities like cross-referencing street and metro maps, purchasing transit passes, researching opening days/times, navigating an itinerary and staying on schedule, choosing restaurants and making reservations, and eating well while staying within a meal allowance.
Itinerary
With its long history, beautiful countryside, and important cultural contributions, Germany is one of the most visited countries in the world. Our 8 day itinerary features scenic landscapes along the Rhine River in the states of Rhineland-Pfalz, Hessen, and Nordrhein-Westfalen.
The journey begins in Mainz, once a Roman settlement where the Rhine and Main rivers meet, then continues to the cities of Frankfurt, Heidelberg, and Köln. We will explore quaint German villages and neighborhoods, medieval castles and cathedrals, as well as modern cities and museums. Students will flex their language skills and master the German rail system on this trip to the Rhineland!
