To
To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants, World Horizons includes the costs of at least two teachers to accompany each tour group. These teachers play a crucial role in helping to organize and promote the program within the school, as well as acting as a point of contact for students and parents throughout the planning process.
While on tour, the teachers are responsible for ensuring that students adhere to any school policies relating to overseas travel and behavior in general. Meanwhile, our World Horizons guide and office staff on the ground in each country will handle all logistical matters, ensuring that the trip runs smoothly and that all participants are well taken care of.
At World Horizons, we understand that the success of any travel program depends on effective communication and collaboration between all parties involved. That’s why we work closely with teachers, students, and parents to ensure that everyone is well-informed and comfortable with every aspect of the trip.
Our programs are available for scheduling during school holiday periods and the costs will vary depending on the chosen destination. Typically, the price range for our programs is between $4000 and $7000. However, our program fees are comprehensive, and participants will have to pay very little extra as everything is already included.
World Horizons operates school expeditions in Nepal, Ladakh (India), Bhutan, and Laos, and is presently developing a new initiative in Kenya.
