Traveling with Us
Travel is the spark
of a brighter future
Travel has the power to change lives and pave the way for success. With ACIS, your child will be immersed in global learning opportunities that will boost independence, fuel curiosity and drive them toward a brighter future. And did we mention they’ll have an incredible time?
The perfect blend of education and travel
Sightseeing and museums are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to educational travel with ACIS. We work with teachers to identify key learning objectives and weave them into the itinerary. We bring culture and history to life through our knowledgeable, enthusiastic Tour Managers. We also introduce students to unique cultural experiences, like French cooking lessons, Spanish bull ranches, Globe Theatre acting workshops and Costa Rican dancing. And that’s just the beginning!

Safety is our first priority
You can breathe easy while your child travels with ACIS. Our safety and support infrastructure has been a cornerstone of our business for more than 40 years. Continuous US and overseas support and rigorously trained Tour Managers are just a couple of the reasons so many teachers, administrators and parents trust ACIS.
Safety & SecurityWell worth the price
Last year, 93% of ACIS travelers said their trip was a great value. Why? Because our tours maximize your child’s time abroad. We use centrally located hotels, which means less commuting and more sightseeing. We book timed entrances to attractions and plan activities into the evenings. We offer a lot of inclusions, too, like cultural connections and authentic meals, and we uniquely tailor our tours to address the needs of every group.
