Overview
Curriculum-linked school and university trips across Kenya — national parks for CBC and IGCSE geography and biology, museums and heritage sites for history and social studies, cultural villages for religious education, and specialised programmes for university field studies. Every school trip includes vetted transport with seatbelts and speed governors, adult-to-child ratios that meet Ministry of Education guidelines, comprehensive first-aid cover, professional guides trained to teach at the appropriate level, meals that suit growing appetites, and a detailed risk assessment shared with the school before departure. Overnight trips use accommodation known to us with securable rooms and staff experienced in hosting school groups. Popular destinations include Nairobi National Park, Karura Forest, the Nairobi Railway Museum, Fort Jesus, Lake Naivasha, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, and the Maasai Mara. Teacher passes are complimentary at agreed ratios.
