Looking for new School Tours?
School and college tours to domestic and international destinations that provide students with unique cultural and educational experiences
Arranging a school tour or trip can be a difficult job on its own, let alone trying to get it done between classes
Uplift Tours and Travel is a fully accredited international travel agency specializing in ‘experiential travel,’ providing unique travel experiences for school groups, all delivered with service excellence.
Educational tours, fun tours, field trips, cultural missions/service based trips … we can put together the whole trip for you, taking away all the stress and time-consuming work of researching, planning, and putting together a memorable and successful trip for your students. Liaising closely with you, we maintain regular contact from the moment you make contact with us, to the time your group arrives safely home.
We have a wide range of suggested itineraries we can discuss with you, or let us create your own itinerary based on your specific curriculum requirements (eg languages, history, music, geology, and social sciences), or indeed for specific missions/service-based requirements, with the option of including fun activities in the tour.
Our unique cultural missions/service-based tours offer incredible educational and experiential travel opportunities to students. Understanding the importance of the cross-cultural experience for young people, Uplift Tours and Travel have partnered with inspirational international care and missions organisations to offer these unique travel experiences for school groups.
As a fantastic value-add, Uplift can provide you with a range of information required for parents as well.
So if you are considering a combined educational and fun tour to New Zealand, a geology field trip, or a missions trip to Fiji or India, or wherever you want to go and have a fun, productive time providing a meaningful experience for your students, contact the friendly team at Uplift for a refreshingly easy way of organising your next school trip.
