You’re probably wondering why group travel is the way to go when you want to head abroad (or explore North America) with your class—here are the top four benefits of working with a group travel company like Explorica to create and organize your tour!
Get more for less
As a respected and accredited tour operator that makes reservations at a high volume, Explorica gets discounted group rates on flights, meals, hotels, and entrance fees at the best attractions around the world. We pass those savings on to our travellers with the guaranteed lowest prices in the industry!
Don’t sweat the details
Ever think about the logistics of getting 30 people booked on one flight or confirming a dinner reservation for your entire group in the middle of Rome? What about collecting checks and managing cash from your entire class? Luckily, you don’t have to!
Our flights and operations staff takes care of all your group’s reservations, and your Tour Director picks up where they left off by ensuring that every on-tour detail is covered. Plus, Explorica’s online billing and payment tools take the tedious account work out of trip planning—there’s no worrying about who owes what, because each traveller is responsible for their own account online.
Travel with confidence
Our commitment to safety is our first priority. From performing rigorous safety checks on every hotel and transportation company we use to providing immediate on-tour support and a 24/7 emergency contact line, Explorica keeps you safe, secure, and connected.
You can rest assured that your educational tour investment is sound—we’re members of the Better Business Bureau, Travel Industry Council of Ontario (TICO), and Consumer Protection BC, and our Travel Protection Plans (offered through TuGo) are the most comprehensive in the industry. Exclusive to Explorica, our Cancel For Any Reason benefit allows you to recover a significant portion of your tour fees due to unfortunate or unforeseen events that aren't typically covered under travel protection plans.
24/7 support
From the moment you decide to travel abroad until you return home from your life-changing trip, our expert team is by your side to ensure the entire process goes smoothly. Students and parents are free to contact our excellent Customer Care staff whenever they want for answers to any questions.
