Student-led, with a trained Expedition Leader alongside the group. The trip World Challenge was built on. Trips of 7 to 27 nights, for secondary school groups ready to take on greater challenge, independence and responsibility. Students take real ownership of expedition life, managing the budget, planning and preparing meals and taking turns to lead.
Our newest school trip format. A week away in Europe, based in one area, with a trained Expedition Leader guiding the group throughout. Half the week is spent at a basecamp, the rest camping out on a trek or a canoe journey. Students try new things, work as a team and come home more confident.
Whether your school chooses to go on a World Challenge Expedition or Adventure, it starts with a conversation. You’ll have a named contact from the outset, and we do the heavy lifting on the planning, risk management and operational support behind the trip.
Both types of trips are backed by a highly experienced team, our own established safety and operational procedures and a 24/7 Operations Centre.
