Traveling is exciting, it is fun, it is unforgettable, but it can also be scary. Going out into the world, into the unfamiliar can make you vulnerable and afraid. This is one of the primary reasons we do what we do. The benefits of having a highly esteemed tour operator go beyond the hassle of planning the trip. It comes with expert safety knowledge and a leader on the ground with you ready to tackle any unforeseen event that may take place. As the world gets back into travel full force, we are ready and prepared to guide your group through anything.
Since our founding, our goal has been to provide group tours with an outstanding level of high-quality service. Traveler safety is at the forefront of our priorities; we plan each trip with student safety in mind and ensure that all of our leaders are trained in fundamental safety protocols. We invite all ages of travelers to embark to landmarks around the world with Landmark Educational Tours!
It all starts with the planning of the trip. Our landmark specialists have seen a thing or two and understand that certain destinations can deem safety concerns due to large crowds. With that in mind, we build our itineraries with safety in mind. Some of the ways we accommodate crowded attractions or busy destination seasons are by visiting popular attractions in off-peak hours, getting guided tickets in advance, and private group accommodations when possible, and increasing the Tour Director count to ensure group control.
Safety is our top priority. Students will be given safety bracelets upon their first interaction with their Tour Director, along with the first of multiple safety briefings. When given free exploration, groups will always be traveling in chaperone groups or following the buddy system (depending on the age of the group, but at the discretion of the trip organizer). The group will not leave an attraction until at least two formal headcounts are done (one by a Tour Director, and the final one conducted by the head chaperone).
