WHO WE ARE

Working together for

THE BETTER

You might have noticed that we’ve unveiled a slightly new logo and an updated name — moving forward, we’ll be known as Explorica by WorldStrides. Back in 2016, we joined forces with WorldStrides, the most trusted provider of educational travel and experiences in the United States — and we haven’t looked back. As part of the WorldStrides family, we’re able to provide the same fun and enriching travel experiences we’ve always created, now backed by the industry’s best resources and a worldwide support network that spans more than 100 countries. To make a long story short, we’re the same great travel company, with the added beneﬁt of more than 50 years of educational travel experience.

Your partner in education WorldStrides is the largest educational travel company in the industry, working with more than 50,000 educators each year. With that kind of stellar network, we’re able to provide you with an extensive global support system, the best prices around, and even more incredible and inspiring destinations — with the same friendly faces and expert travel specialists you know and love.

Safety and security With more than half a decade of student travel experience under their belt, WorldStrides’ safety record is unmatched, and we’re proud to bring you access to their dedicated in-house Safety and Health team — led by Vice President Robin Reliford — to ensure you and your students are covered in any emergency. The painstaking work this team puts in behind-the-scenes allows educators and students to focus on what’s most important: learning and enjoying the experience at hand!

Explorica did a phenomenal job putting this tour together. My kids wanted adventure, philanthropy, culture, and shopping...and we got ALL that and more. And for a very reasonable price, to boot!” –Kimberly, 9th grade history teacher, Costa Rica 2018

Spain & Portugal

Tour the capital of Spanish language and culture: visit the Royal Palace, see the famous Spanish masterpieces at the Prado and try fresh, authentic tapas. Experience sun-drenched Andalusian culture in Seville and Granada, view the 16th-century BelĂŠm Tower on a walk through hilly, scenic Lisbon and watch your students blossom as they converse with locals in their native language.

1.888.310.7120 â€˘ explorica.com/spain-portugal

Explorica pro tip “Exploring Spain and Portugal is must-do. The two countries are right next to each other, yet visiting each is a vastly different experience. The Portuguese really welcome you and go out of their way to make sure you’re having fun (and your bellies are full!), and then you visit Spain where the cities are booming with art and music. It’s hard to not fall in love with the energy of everyone around you.”

“I just got back from a trip to Spain and our dedicated tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to interact with students. My students made great friendships, memories, and had authentic cultural experiences — and Explorica made it happen.” –Colleen, history teacher, 2019

ITINERARY HIGHLIGHT Alhambra Palace Granada sits on three gentle hills, which are dwarfed on a clear day by the majestic snowcapped peaks of the Sierra Nevada. Atop one of these hills sits the imposing but delicate Alhambra palace. One of the best rewards of climbing up to see it is the view of the city mixed in with orchards, tobacco ﬁelds, and poplar groves. Photo submitted by an Explorica traveler.

Explorica pro tip “There’s so much to see and do in northern France, but if you have the time, head south. Beyond the glamour of the French Riviera and the vibrant lavender fields of Provence, you’ll find picturesque small villages with Roman roads passing through, 300+ days of sunshine, and friendly, welcoming locals who speak with a unique twang.”

“Everything with Explorica was terrific on our trip to France: the itinerary, the tour guide, the office staff, the taking-care-of-every-detail, the website, the responsiveness, choice of hotels for tour groups...I will always use Explorica!” –Todd., French teacher, 2019

ITINERARY HIGHLIGHT

Photo submitted by an Explorica traveler. Submit your own photos at explorica.com/photo.

Versailles The ultimate palace, Versailles was built by Louis XIII and housed the royal family and its groveling court from 1682, when Louis XIV the Sun King moved in, to the French Revolution. Everything in Versailles is worth a look, from the 250-foot-long Hall of Mirrors, with themed salons (war and peace) on either side, to Marie Antoinette’s faux country hamlet.

From taking gondola rides in Venice to touring the Colosseum in Rome, this tour provides students a sampling of the best Italy has to offer. My personal favorite? Grabbing a gelato and strolling the winding streets around the Duomo in Florence.”

Explorica pro tip “When traveling in Europe, why not make the most of it? Visiting multiple cities and countries allows your students to experience different languages, customs, and scenery. Start in a bustling city like London or Paris and show your students an international metropolis, then travel through the Swiss Alps and gaze at the gorgeous green mountains and bright blue waterfalls. The diversity in what you’ll see in a single trip is awe-inspiring.”

What can I say? Travel changes people. It provides perspectives beyond our own, and it alters views, attitudes, and misconceptions we have about other cultures. Travel is possible for my students because I use Explorica to help me plan my trips.

Explorica pro tip “Traveling to Costa Rica has long been a favorite for student groups because it provides travelers access to vast biodiversity, incredible scenery, and vibrant culture. It’s also a country with a longstanding commitment to education and a welcoming, friendly attitude toward the younger generation. Hopefully, groups will take back with them one of Costa Rica’s greatest assets, which is the realization that life is what you make of it.”

New Orleans was a great trip. To stand along the Mississippi River, see a plantation, and hear the history of the area -- everything on the itinerary was perfect!
