Our number one concern is safety – which is reflected in the fact that we have a full-time tour director and bus driver with us during our tours. They even stay in our hotel, eat with us, and are on our adventures in the event of an emergency. We also pay fair trade wages not just because it is the right thing to do but also because it provides us with the best options for staff for our tours, opportunities, and adventures.

If you are interested in additional STEM programs, we also provide Conservation in Maine for a domestic tour. For an additional international experience, please contact us about our Marine Science in the Dominican Republic tours.

We work with groups anywhere in the United States and Canada and have worked extensively with groups from PA and NJ from Bucks County, Montgomery County, Chester County, Delaware County, Essex County, Union County, Warren County, and more.
