📢 Me, trying to play it cool at the faculty meeting: "Yeah, I’m just casually taking my students to Spain this year... no big deal." 😎💃
Let’s be real—traveling with your students is the coolest thing you can do as a teacher. And GEC Tours makes it easier than you think!
Tag a teacher bestie who would totally take their class abroad. 🌍✈️

🌍✈️ When You GEC Tour’d a Little Too Hard… 🤣
You know you’ve really embraced educational travel when:
✅ Your passport has more stamps than your grade book 📖🛂
✅ You accidentally say “gracias” in three different countries 🇪🇸🇫🇷🇻🇳
✅ You measure time in “trips taken” instead of semesters ⏳✨
✅ Your students think you have a second job as a world explorer 🕵️♂️🌎
Honestly? Best. Problem. Ever. 🙌 Who’s ready for the next adventure?

🌍✨ Why I Chose Morocco for This Year’s School Trip 🇲🇦
I wanted a destination that would surprise my students. Somewhere beyond the usual classroom lessons—somewhere they’d feel history, culture, and adventure all at once. And that’s why I picked Morocco.
🏜️ The Sahara at sunrise – Because nothing puts life in perspective like watching the sun rise over endless dunes.
🏰 Ancient medinas & vibrant souks – A maze of colors, spices, and history in every corner.
🍊 Fresh-squeezed orange juice in Jemaa el-Fnaa – A small but unforgettable taste of local life.
🕌 The call to prayer echoing through Marrakech – A moment of culture, connection, and reflection.
🐪 Camel treks & Atlas Mountains hikes – Because learning isn’t just about history—it’s about adventure, too.
My students won’t just see Morocco. They’ll experience it. And that’s why I knew—this was the trip.

😂 POV: Your students thought they could survive the whole trip on chicken fingers… 🍗❌🌍✅
Travel isn’t just about history and culture—it’s also about discovering that yes, there’s food beyond the kids' menu! 🤯 From fresh empanadas in Argentina 🇦🇷 to sizzling street food in Vietnam 🇻🇳, our trips teach students life skills like adapting, trying new things, and realizing that not everything needs to come with fries. 🍟🚫
Tag a fellow teacher who knows the struggle! 😂✈️

🤔 "Do I really want to lead the school trip this year?" ✈️🌍
At first, I thought about sitting this one out. The planning, the responsibility, the herding of teenagers through an airport… was I really up for it? 😅
But then I pictured:
🇪🇸 Watching my students’ faces light up as they step into the Sagrada Familia for the first time
🥘 Their reactions to trying real paella (not just the cafeteria version)
💃 The joy of them attempting flamenco and realizing it’s harder than it looks
🏛️ Hearing them say, “Wow, history actually is cool” at the Alhambra
And I knew—I couldn’t miss this. Some lessons can’t be taught in a classroom, and some moments you just have to be there for.
So yeah… I’m leading the trip. And I’m already counting down the days. ⏳✨

I knew, if I could just get my students to see that learning history and language has a place beyond the classroom, that we'd see a ton more engagement in our high school classes. 🎓
And low and behold - I found a way to make it happen! And the truth is... it's seriously painless to book and recruit for a school trip abroad.
The best part was watching my curriculum from inside the classroom shine in it's natural environment as we explored the natural world together! 👉 And GEC Tours is offering teachers even more reasons to travel in 2025!!

As a teacher, I never thought I’d have time to travel… but then I realized I could do it with my students! 🌍✈️ Watching them experience new cultures, step outside their comfort zones, and learn beyond the classroom made every moment worth it. With GEC, planning was seamless—so I could focus on the adventure, not the logistics! 🏛️📚
If you’ve ever dreamed of taking your students on an unforgettable journey, this is your sign! 💡✨

I think I officially hacked the system as a high school teacher! 🧑🏫 Instead of saving all year to do an epic trip in the summer, I build a custom trip with GEC Tours - and I go for FREE! 😳
Not only that, but I actually am helping my students grow and learn way beyond the impact that I can make in the classroom (and I work really hard to make an impact in the classroom!). By exploring Europe and seeing sights together, we actually build on the curriculum I've taught in class and I see it come to life in their eyes!
👉 Fellow teachers, crack the code!! Travel with GEC this summer!

It's not every day you get to bring your students somewhere magical to learn. ✨🌎 But the UK is absolute magic. On our spring school trip to the UK every year, we capture the most amazing moments - learning about Shakespeare in front of the Globe theater, studying anthropology through the lens of Stonehenge, discussing the world history, art, and culture that emerged from this part of the world for centuries. 🌎 It's our school's favorite class trip for a reason - and you have to go to really find out why.

And it is always way easier than they think! I just work with GEC Tours to set up a student tour that is aligned with my exact curriculum, tell students and parents that it's happening, and then go from there! It's seriously the best way to travel, and it gives the students so much life experience and perspective in such a short time. 👏🌎
