WorldStrides organised a wonderful camp experience for our students. It gave me such peace of mind to simply email them and know that everything—from start to finish—would be taken care of. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. All transportation, activities, food, and accommodation were exceptionally well organised. Our bus driver, Rodney, was spectacular. He went above and beyond by adding in bonus experiences, such as a trip to Mt Ainslie, and shared a wealth of knowledge throughout the journey. The entire experience was smooth, engaging, and memorable.

We have been extremely satisfied with our experience with WorldStrides during our trip to Mt Hotham Snow experience. The trip was very well organised from start to finish and the communication before and throughout this trip was excellent. Our students have gained an invaluable life experience they will remember and cherish for many years to come.

WorldStrides was THE complete package! From door to door, the staff at WorldStrides took care of everything and ensured we were safe and secure, planned and stress free. Airlines, buses, accommodation, food, bookings, sport, instructor bookings... It really was an amazing experience for the staff and students involved. Having up to date information throughout the planning process enabled us to communicate with parents and guardians and keep everyone happy and relaxed! It's a stressful time taking a group of 25 kids to the snow, but WorldStrides were highly professional and showed us just how good their staff and company can do things. 100% back these guys in for a trip of a lifetime to the snow!

In responding to COVID-19 restrictions Corpus Christi College's Art students decided to explore their own backyard, the Western Australian Wheatbelt. The tour was inspired by Form's Painted Silo Trail and the Mural at Wellington Dam, Collie. WorldStrides tailored a week of sight seeing, gallery visits and art making. Not only did the students explore their creativity, but were also able to make a connection to Ballardong boodja country during NAIDOC week. It was a trip of a life time. Thank you.

WorldStrides is a wonderful company that takes all the stress out of planning an overseas trip with school students. The best part about having WorldStrides book everything is you know there is a backup plan if things don't go to plan.

We would like to express our deepest appreciation to WorldStrides for providing us with a Music Tour that was truly memorable for both students and staff alike. It was a great privilege to attend Rhapsody Rotorua 2018 and all of our students benefited from their participation in the many experiences on offer. There was a wonderful balance of music, educational, cultural and adventure activities and definitely something for everyone. The WorldStrides team were outstanding in every way. Their professionalism, passion, “can do” attitude, and cheerful demeanor both leading up to and during the tour, made our jobs so much easier. Thank you most sincerely for giving us an experience our students and staff will never forget.

Our school's recent Europe trip with WorldStrides was an absolutely incredible and amazing experience! From the moment we started planning to the day we returned home, everything was perfectly organised and well-supported.
The itinerary was fantastic, allowing our students to experience the rich history and diverse cultures of Europe firsthand. We were constantly impressed by the knowledgeable guides, comfortable accommodations, and seamless transportation. But most importantly, this trip was truly life-changing for our students. They gained a new perspective on the world, developed valuable independence, and created memories that will last a lifetime.
We wholeheartedly recommend WorldStrides to any school considering an educational tour. They exceeded our expectations in every way, making this trip an unforgettable adventure for our students and teachers alike.

I cannot begin to express how incredibly delighted and satisfied our group was with the exceptional services provided by WorldStrides during our annual Trinity Snow Trip to Hotham. From the very first contact until the last moment of our adventure, the entire experience was nothing short of phenomenal. Thank you, Worldstrides, for giving us the snow trip of our dreams!

Since 2015 we have travelled with WorldStrides for our school snow trip. In this time I have found the WorldStrides team to be highly professional, well organised, friendly and accommodating to meet the characteristics of our trip and the needs for our student cohort. In 2019, we had the unusual circumstance of being ‘snowed in’ on the mountain delaying our departure for a day, requiring us to stay an extra night. The on mountain staff were extremely accommodating and informative keeping us up to date on any developments. Not only did we get to stay an extra night we were spoilt with the provision of afternoon tea, dinner and breakfast before departure the next day. I can highly recommend the WorldStrides organisation based on our experiences in this time.

Our students once again had a fantastic week in the snow and many are planning to return once their schooling has finished! The entire process with WorldStrides has been great, our tour specialist was very patient and understanding whilst we gathered information from our students. The accommodation at Falls Creek was excellent and very easy to access. Thank you all for your assistance with our trip, it was certainly something that our students will value for many years.

Our recent school snow camp to Mount Hotham with 55 students was an outstanding success, thanks to the professionalism and support of WorldStrides. From the very beginning, their team made the planning process clear and stress-free, providing excellent communication and guidance every step of the way. On the mountain, the WorldStrides staff were exceptional. Their organisation, knowledge, and constant support ensured that both staff and students felt safe, well looked after, and able to make the most of the experience. Everything ran smoothly—from transport and accommodation through to ski hire, lessons, and daily coordination—which allowed us as teachers to focus on enjoying the camp alongside our students. The positive impact on our students was immense. Many tried skiing for the very first time, and the encouragement and structure provided by WorldStrides made it a truly memorable and rewarding experience for all. I would not hesitate to recommend WorldStrides to any school considering a snow camp. Their professionalism, care, and commitment to delivering a high-quality experience were evident in every aspect of our trip.

We recently used WorldStrides for our annual Year 6 camp to Canberra. This will be maybe our 10th year of using this company, and we will continue to do so for future camps. WorldStrides takes the pressure off knowing where to go, the timing of everything, and they are flexible in making it work for each group.

The Reddam House art retreat to Italy was a fantastic blend of art education and cultural immersion. From the vibrant streets of Florence to the serene canals of Venice, every moment was filled with inspiration. The art-making workshops were hands-on and engaging, allowing us to experiment with various techniques. The three days of Italian art lessons in Florence were a unique addition, providing a deeper understanding of the local artistic heritage. This retreat not only sharpened my artistic skills but also broadened my appreciation for the historical and cultural treasures of Italy.

We recently used WorldStrides for our annual Year 6 camp to Canberra. This will be our third year of using this company and we will continue to do so for future camps. WorldStrides take the pressure off knowing where to go, the timing of everything and are flexible in making it work for each group. Each day was jam packed with activities to keep the kids busy from start to finish. Our bus driver, Rodney, had so much knowledge which he was happy to share with us all and even suggested ideas for when we had a spare minute. The whole experience was stress free, we thank WorldStrides for making it such an enriching experience and we would highly recommend them to anyone considering it.

WorldStrides provided our students the greatest opportunity for self-growth and experience. They focused on creating a once in a life time experience and were there every step of the way through the planning process.

The Europe Tour was an amazing, wonderful, eye opening experience. For me, who had never been outside of Australia, the chance to go see the world was something I had craved and dreamt about for years. Pompeii was by far the greatest experience on the tour and my personal favourite on the tour. Unlike most places we visited which displayed artefacts or relics such as you'd see in a museum, the city of Pompeii was in itself a museum and walking through the city was like taking a step back in time. There is no other feeling like it, to be part of something that took place so long ago and yet to still see it standing, to be able to reconnect with the people of the past and realize how similar we are to those from an age ago. The tour was perfect in every way, and it would not have been possible without the organisation and support of WorldStrides.
