Off-Season Travel
It's spring time! AKA student travel season, or simply: the season. Whatever you call it, student groups are out in full force right now. It's exciting, but has it ever made you think about what it's like to travel at other times of the year? Like...the off-season?
This video highlights some of the often-overlooked benefits of traveling in the off-season and will help you determine if it's right for you and your group. Either way, we think student travel is great year-round, and the off-season is just another great option.
