How it works — schools

Five steps from idea to departure

Planning a global educational trip with TCA Tours is simple, flexible and built entirely around your school's needs.

  1. 1

    Choose your destination

    Start by telling us where you'd like to take your students. From Asia to the Caribbean, Africa to the Americas, we cover every corner of the globe.

  2. 2

    Select your subjects

    Share the subjects, themes, or learning goals you want the trip to support — whether it's history, languages, STEM, geography, performing arts, or sport.

  3. 3

    We design your tour

    Our expert team works with trusted, on-the-ground partners in your chosen destination to build a tailored itinerary. These are not off-the-shelf packages — every detail is crafted to match your curriculum, timetable, and budget.

  4. 4

    Receive your bespoke proposal

    We'll provide a full itinerary, cost breakdown, and support package so you can review, refine, and gain approval with confidence.

  5. 5

    Travel with peace of mind

    From risk assessments to 24/7 in-country support, we take care of everything, so you can focus on inspiring your students.

Browse the site, get in touch once you have chosen your preferred destination, and we will prepare a personalised quote tailored to your requirements.

On tour · the TCA Tours app

The industry-leading app that makes your life easier

Every TCA tour comes with its own app. Staff, students and parents open the same link — no download, no app store, no logins to chase — and see the day laid out in front of them.

The itinerary, hour by hour
  • The whole tour, live. Coach times, venues and what to bring, updated the moment anything moves.
  • Your group in your pocket. Rooms, parent contacts, medical and dietary notes, one tap away.
  • The day’s plan on every phone. No more reading it out twice at breakfast.
  • Safeguarding-safe messaging. One-way broadcasts, no WhatsApp groups with students.

No app store, no PDFs. It saves to the home screen and works on any phone.

“The TCA Tours app is brilliant. Everything our staff, students and teachers need is in one place, and the organisation on our past tours has been first class from start to finish”

“I knew it would be good, but not that darn good!”
