For Bible colleges and seminaries
Study trips built around your faculty and your course
Israel, Greece and Turkey, Italy and more, with your faculty teaching on the sites and an itinerary built around what your students are studying.
Three things set a study expedition apart from a general tour.
Your professors lead the teaching on the sites, in the order the course needs. We plan the logistics around their lectures, readings and discussion times.
The route, the pace and the time at each site follow what your students are studying, whether that is the Gospels, the journeys of Paul, archaeology or church history.
Students, faculty and any alumni or donors who join travel together, with a Christian Expedition tour director for the whole trip and licensed local guides at each site.
Your faculty bring the teaching. This is what we take off their plate.
Tell us what the course covers, when your academic calendar allows, and how many students and faculty you expect. We come back with an itinerary and a price, with no deposit and no commitment until the plan is right.
We shape the route and the days around your syllabus, with time for teaching on site and in the evenings. Your faculty approve the itinerary before anything is booked.
Our media team produces a trip page with online registration and a flyer for your students, and for alumni or supporters if you open the trip to them.
Each traveler registers and pays us directly, so your school is not collecting deposits or chasing balances. A $450 deposit at registration, and the balance 90 days before departure.
Places for your faculty leaders are earned by the group you bring and come from our suppliers. We show you how many in the proposal.
A Christian Expedition tour director travels with the group from arrival to departure, with 24/7 emergency support behind them, so your faculty can teach.
The way we build a study expedition works for a church, a ministry or radio audience or a youth or student group. Tell us what the group is and we will build around it.
If you are leading a trip for the first time, start with Lead an Expedition.

Your own faculty. Our licensed local guides add site knowledge, and our tour director handles the logistics so your professors can teach.
Yes. Send us the course outline or the sites your faculty want to cover, and we will build the route and the days around it.
Most go during winter term, spring break or early summer. Those weeks fill first, so it pays to start planning eight to thirteen months out.
Usually, yes. Many schools open part of the group to alumni and supporters, which can also help the numbers.
We do. Each traveler registers and pays Christian Expedition directly, so your school is not handling deposits, balances or refunds.
Tell us the size you realistically expect and we will build and price for it. Smaller groups can be arranged.
Tell us what your course covers, roughly when you would travel, and how many might come. We will build the itinerary and send a full price before you commit to anything.
