For youth and student groups
Trips built for a youth ministry, a Christian school or a student group
Take your students to the places they have read about, with your leaders teaching, a pace that suits them, and a team that plans for every part of the trip.
Three things set a student expedition apart from an adult tour.
Your youth pastor, teachers and chaperones travel with the group and lead the teaching and devotions. We plan the logistics so they can focus on the students.
The days have the right pace and variety for young travelers: time on the sites, time to walk and climb, and time together in the evenings. You approve every day before anything is booked.
We give you clear information to share with families: the itinerary, what is included, the hotels, payment dates and who to call. Each family registers and pays us directly.
Most youth leaders and teachers we travel with had never organized an overseas trip before. This is what we take off your plate.
Tell us where your group wants to go, when your school or ministry calendar allows, and how many students and chaperones you expect. We come back with an itinerary and a price, with no deposit and no commitment until the plan is right.
You know your students. We shape the days, the pace and the sites around them, and you approve the itinerary before anything is booked.
Our media team produces a trip page with online registration and a flyer you can send home, so families have everything in one place before they sign up.
Each family registers and pays us directly, so your office never collects checks or chases balances. A $450 deposit at registration, and the balance 90 days before departure.
Places for your 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 leaders can look after the students.
The way we build a student expedition works for a church, a ministry or radio audience or a Bible college or seminary. 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.

“Over the past few years Calvary Vero has been working alongside Christian Expeditions Tours. Trey and his team have done a fabulous job organizing, managing and overseeing our trips to Israel and Greece.”
Pastor Jim GallagherSenior Pastor, Calvary Chapel Vero Beach
Your own leaders, teachers and chaperones travel with the group, along with a Christian Expedition tour director for the whole trip and licensed local guides at each site.
That is your school’s or ministry’s policy to set. Tell us the number of students and leaders and we will build and price the trip for both.
Most travel during spring break or the summer. Those weeks fill first, so it pays to start planning eight to thirteen months out.
Yes. Each family pays a $450 deposit at registration and the balance 90 days before departure.
Usually, yes. Parents and other adults can travel with the group if your leaders are happy for them to come.
Many groups do. Tell us how your group plans to raise funds and we will help you plan around the payment dates.
Tell us where your group would like to go, roughly when, and how many students and leaders might come. We will build the itinerary and send a full price before you commit to anything.
