Looking for a life-changing school trip to Costa Rica that blends education, adventure and social responsibility? Glo-Ed offers tailor-made educational tours to one of the world’s most biodiverse countries, perfect for geography students, environmental science enthusiasts and budding conservationists.
Embark on a transformative journey through Costa Rica, experiencing everything from the Caribbean to the Pacific coast. Your itinerary will span rainforests, volcanoes, national parks and pristine beaches, with a strong focus on responsible travel and conservation.
On your school trip to Costa Rica, students could follow a route from San José to Tortuguero on the Atlantic coast, then through the Arenal volcano region, the Monteverde Cloud Forest and onward to the sun-soaked Pacific shores. Along the way, students engage in thrilling outdoor activities like zip lining through the rainforest canopy, white-water rafting, sea kayaking, snorkelling and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
But it’s not just about adrenaline. At the heart of this journey is socially responsible travel. Previous schools have fundraised and collected school supplies before their departure, enabling them to donate pencil cases, books and calculators to rural primary schools. Some have rolled up their sleeves for conservation work, taking part in a large-scale beach clean-up to protect nesting sea turtles from harmful plastic waste.
At Glo-Ed, we handle all aspects of planning your school trip to Costa Rica, so you can focus on the educational outcomes. We support teachers, engage with school leadership teams and make sure parents feel confident and informed.
