School Tours to Africa
An educational school trip to Africa will provide your students with a life-changing opportunity to immerse themselves in rich cultures and explore breathtaking natural landscapes. Our tours to Africa below will give your students opportunities to develop a unique insight into the challenges facing this huge and diverse continent. School groups will be given the opportunity to see the cultural practices of local communities up close, even getting involved in key issues such as community building, fair trade cooperatives, sustainable development workshops, climate and environmental issues.
Being able to witness first hand many of the issues that shape the developing world is an experience that students will benefit from enormously. A school tour to Africa is a life changing opportunity for pupils.
To most people, the African continent brings to mind arid deserts and little else, yet this huge land mass stretches an incredible 70 degrees of latitude, encompassing large areas with a tropical wet and monsoon climate. Schools can visit the Atlas Mountains of Morocco on a Geography trip, or Table Mountain in South Africa on a rugby tour. From a visit to a vibrant market, an ancient historical site, or learning traditional crafts, your students will gain a glimpse and develop an appreciation into the daily lives of African people.
Popular African countries that school groups often visit include, Kenya, Ghana, Morocco, Tanzania, Botswana, and The Gambia. Through carefully curated itineraries, students can engage directly with local communities, participating in cultural exchanges that allow mutual understanding and global citizenship. They can actively take part in sustainable development initiatives in areas like education, healthcare, or conservation. Whether planting trees to combat deforestation and climate change, helping a community with the construction of a village school, or shadowing medical professionals at a community clinic. An educational tour of Africa not only expands a young person's worldview, but also inspires them to build empathy for a better global society.
