AUTHENTIC COSTA RICA EDUCATIONAL TRIPS

Are you leading a student trip to Costa Rica and interested in collaborating
with an experienced student travel agency to promote the trip, organize
participants and accompany students to Costa Rica? If you are a teacher,
student, scout leader, coach, rotary club member or parent then our student
travel programs are for you! Your students can learn to speak Spanish while
volunteering and helping citizens of Costa Rica in an authentic community
service project. With eight fully-paying participants, your program tuition is
waived and you’re on your way free of charge.



Costa Rica Explorations specializes in educational trips to Costa Rica that
focus on authentic, cross-cultural, Spanish immersion, and service- learning
programs. All our student trip itineraries are customized and exclusive for each
school or community group traveling with us. Our programs are best suited for
high school and middle school students and educators that are looking to create
a hands-on, out-of-the-classroom, experiential learning experience through
travel and cultural immersion. We also offer service and language programs for
adult groups.

COSTA RICA STUDENT TRAVEL PROGRAMS

All of our student travel programs are merely guidelines to work from as we
customize the experience for you and your participants. Our educational team has
countless ways to implement a variety of different curriculum; from
environmental sciences, biology and outdoor education to history, religion, and
Spanish, there is a lot of learning-by doing that happens during these
experiences. We also coordinate exchange programs between scouts as well as
soccer teams that want to share with like-minded students in Costa Rica. Learn
more about our student travel programs.



CUSTOM TRIPS FOR TEACHERS & EDUCATORS

Costa Rica Explorations is an experienced, in-country resource for high
schools, middle schools, and other groups that want to provide unique and
authentic international travel opportunities for their students, but don’t have
the time or resources to coordinate it on their own. We act as an extension of
the partner school or group, and work side-by-side with educators, teachers and
community leaders to plan, organize, and lead student programs through Costa
Rica. Consider us your in-country partner.

With well over a decade of experience running student travel programs to Costa
Rica, we have developed valuable relationships with safe and reputable partners
that can be trusted. Within each program’s planning and implementation phases,
we offer local expertise on how to maximize time in the exquisite country of
Costa Rica, and will provide creative ideas and thoughts on how to implement
any customizations that would like to be added to a particular group’s
experience.

All group trips include two, bilingual, professional guides that have been
trained and have experience in leading Costa Rica educational tours. The length,
budget and activities within each of the programs can all be customized to fit
the needs of your school or group. While planning a student travel program to
Costa Rica, one is faced with countless choices and decisions to make. Making
these decisions can be overwhelming and we are here to inform, educate, and
ensure that your experience is safe, educational and enlightening.

WHAT TEACHERS SAY






“Since being back at school the kids have been sharing in their classes and I
have heard nothing but positive comments from all the other teachers. Definitely
doesn’t happen on every trip, especially to another country! I’ll definitely
keep you in mind for future years…”

—Corey Smith
