Even experiences that are priceless come with a price tag. Whenever you review prices for international travel, the most important thing to consider is what the price DOES and DOES NOT include. Many companies offer low prices but then hide costs that you have to pay such as tips, travel insurance and even some meals. In addition, some companies combine you with other students from different places to decrease costs.
At Global Explorers, we try to provide you with an all-inclusive price. We will not combine you with other groups except under special circumstances and only with your approval.
Here’s a list of what the Global Explorers price DOES include:
