It is important in your student travel to have the same high expectations of your travel educators that your families have of your educators on your campus!
We believe that expanding a young person’s comfort zone is more important than just getting out of their comfort zone…and we provide them the tools to do just that!
Our Experiential Education Approach is a specialized, highly refined skillset which fuses the best of classroom teaching, coaching, and counseling expertise with extensive experience leading hands-on engagement in the field. Combine that with our vast experience working with very diverse kinds of groups in very different kinds of settings and you get Magic!
We are not in the student tour business. We are in the experiential expedition business. They are completely different in educational infrastructure and in educational outcome!
Everything we do on Expedition derives from Einstein’s notion that “Your education is what remains after everything you have learned has been forgotten!” Our experiences for that reason are truly enduring- they are unforgettable.
If you have never deployed The Bandana, The 10 minute Conversation or The Mid Expedition Challenge on your student travel experiences—you are not getting the most out of your opportunity.
Our competition does not even talk about Expedition Mentality, much less execute it in the field.
Expedition Mentality is about challenging students to create a culture for this unique opportunity which brings out the best in themselves as individuals and from the group as a whole.
It takes great intentionality with a well developed tool belt to execute this well and that is what we do.
We are confident that if travelers apply the same rigorous filtering and high educational expectations used in evaluating schools to travel partners that the choice will be Chill Expeditions because we aim to deliver the exceptional quality that parents, students and teachers expect on campus at great schools.
Travel itself can be educational…however, with well honed experiential strategies to bring out the best in students in special places, so much more is possible! Your students deserve the very best.
Why settle for less?
