 SPECIAL CLASSES:  One of the primary factors that has made our tours so successful has been the special classes conducted prior to departure.  Each class deals with a different aspect of the trip and will help the students more fully appreciate everything they will see and do.  The classes will cover topics ranging from government and law to photography and travel tips.  These mandatory classes will be held after school beginning three weeks prior to departure.

 INSURANCE:  Students are required to show proof of medical/accident insurance as part of registration.  Accident insurance and/or trip cancellation insurance is available and may be purchased separately along with flight insurance.  For information on these policies please contact Travel Guard at 800-826-2530.
