For Schools

Custom educational tours
designed for your students

Custom Tour Packages

We understand that every school has unique needs and requirements. Our custom tour packages are designed to align with your school's educational goals, schedule, and student interests.

We can tailor itineraries around specific regions, themes, and learning outcomes—combining adventure, culture, and education into a seamless experience.

Schools can use The Student Tours for full trip planning or targeted support around transport, activities, accommodation, risk information, parent communication, and student-ready itineraries. We keep the planning process clear so staff can compare options, understand costs, and decide what works for their group.

Safety & Support

The safety and well-being of your students is our top priority. We maintain the highest standards of safety and provide comprehensive support throughout the entire tour experience.

Comprehensive Safety Protocols

All our tours operate in full compliance with New Zealand's Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 and the Adventure Activity Regulations. We maintain a 1:10 supervisor-to-student ratio with all supervisors being first aid certified and background-checked.

We can provide practical safety information for school review, including key supplier details, activity context, emergency communication expectations, and the planning assumptions behind the proposed itinerary.

24/7 Support

Our team maintains 24/7 communication with tour leaders and provides emergency support whenever needed. Lead guides are trained in emergency response situations and maintain constant contact with our head office.

Real-Time Updates

Stay connected and informed about your students' journey. Photos and updates are shared in real time, keeping you updated on the tour progress and student activities.

For school groups, communication can be adjusted to suit the staff member, international department, homestay coordinator, or parent contact responsible for the trip.
