Field Adventures

GEOetc Field Adventures are wonderful learning opportunities for students, teachers, educators, and their families.  We have been leading field adventures for teachers since 1985 and have intimate knowledge of what makes a trip a life-changing experience for all.  Our trips are open to people from around the globe.  Trips are led in English.

We specialize in small intimate group trips – which allow us to focus on individual needs and go to places that large groups just can’t do.

One thing we pride ourselves on is keeping the trip price low and yet making sure people have an amazing experience.  We keep you safe, comfortable and engaged…all while we take you to places a little off the beaten track (but don’t miss the tourist highlights).  And all in the framework of living and learning and having fun together.

What about the pandemic?

We want to keep everyone safe.  We will not run a trip if there was a risk that you would be hurt or injured in any way – including infectious diseases.   If travel restrictions are not lifted, trips will be postponed for 12 months.  If travel is allowed, we will be insisting that everyone wears masks and maintains social distancing.  If a vaccine is available, we will be asking people for proof they have been vaccinated.   If not, we will be asking participants to provide us proof of a recent negative COVID test before travel (details will be sent to you a few weeks before departure).   These are not unfair conditions – but ways that we can ensure everyone is safe.
