Getting started is as easy as...

Do you want your students to experience our nation's capital? Explore the natural wonders of Puerto Rico or Florida’s marine life? Take in the excitement and history of New York City? Browse our tours to see all the possibilities, then call or connect online with one of our tour consultants. Your personal consultant will help you pick just the right tour for you and your students.

Once you've got your tour set, it's time to get students excited to go! Your Smithsonian Student Travel team will help you recruit students for your tour, communicate with parents and school administrators, and take care of all the other details to get you ready for a successful tour.

An exclusive event for our new group leaders, our free orientation weekend will show you what a Smithsonian Student Travel tour is all about. Seasoned group leaders and Smithsonian Student Travel staff will give you all the tips, advice and tools you need to lead a successful educational tour. Plus, you'll learn about EF's Global Rewards, a program that rewards you with free travel and gifts simply for traveling with your students.

As you count down to your departure date, your Smithsonian Student Travel team will make sure all the last-minute details are in place. When you arrive to your destination, you'll be greeted by your tour director, who is with your group during the entire tour, day and night.
