Your Trip, Your Way
Every student group is different. Your class has its own interests, budget, and travel goals. That’s why Adventure Student Travel doesn’t believe in one-size-fits-all trip planning. Instead, we work with you to create a custom class trip that fits exactly what your group wants and needs.
Start with What Matters to You
Choose Your Destination
Maybe you want to explore a big city like New York or Washington, D.C. Or perhaps your students would rather visit national parks, beaches, or theme parks. You might even have a totally unique destination in mind. Whatever it is, AST can make it happen. We’ve been planning student trips since 1998, so we know how to turn your vision into reality.
Pick Your Focus
What do you want students to learn or experience? History tours, science-based trips, faith-based exploration, performing arts opportunities, or outdoor adventures are all options. You can combine multiple themes into one trip. For example, a Washington, D.C. trip might include government landmarks, the Smithsonian museums, and a Broadway-style show. The choice is yours.
We Handle the Details
Planning Made Easy
Once you tell us what you want, our experienced travel team takes over. We find the right hotels, arrange transportation, book attractions, and organize meals. We handle permits, reservations, and scheduling. You get to focus on preparing your students while we take care of everything else.
Budget-Friendly Options
Cost is always a concern for school trips. That’s why we work within your budget from the start. We’ll suggest ways to make your trip more affordable without sacrificing quality. Group discounts, off-season travel, and smart itinerary planning all help keep costs down. We’re upfront about pricing so there are no surprises.

Flexible Itineraries That Work for You
Adjust Trip Length
Your trip can be as short as a weekend or as long as a week. We build itineraries around your school calendar and your group’s needs. Need to be back by Friday night? We’ll make it work. Want to maximize spring break? We can do that too.
Add Special Activities
Want to include something specific? We can add college campus tours, volunteer opportunities, special performances, or unique local experiences. If your band wants to perform, your choir wants to sing, or your sports team wants to compete, we’ll build those activities into your schedule.

Real Support Every Step of the Way
Before Your Trip
We provide planning tools, fundraising ideas, and trip preparation resources. You’ll have a dedicated travel coordinator who answers questions and helps with parent meetings. We make sure everyone knows what to expect before you leave.
During Your Trip
Many of our itineraries include experienced tour guides who travel with your group. If something unexpected happens, our team is available 24/7 to help. We’ve thought through the logistics so you can enjoy the experience with your students.
Educational Value
Even on custom trips, we focus on learning. We can connect you with educational programs at museums, arrange ranger-led tours at national parks, or set up behind-the-scenes experiences that align with your curriculum. Travel becomes an extension of your classroom.
