Why should you consider Nomadic School Tours for School Trips and Educational Visits?
What more does one have to say about a Geography tour of Peru? We immediately think of the ancient lost civilizations of the Inca and Machu Picchu. There is the stunning geological features of the Andes and the High Altiplano. And don't forget the wonderful and vibrant flora and fauna of the Amazon rain forest. There is just so much that your pupils could get out of a trip to Peru.
