The Journeys PROGRAM MODEL

Global Glimpse journeys go beyond travel. We work with you to design an experience that begins well before you step on your flight and continues long after you return home.

pre-trip preparations

Our team takes the time to understand your vision for impact, key learning outcomes, group dynamics, and budget, then designs a custom program that includes both pre- and post-trip curriculum. Our award-winning curriculum is fully customizable and integrates seamlessly with your goals. An overview of sample pre-trip workshop themes is outlined below:

  • Youth Leadership in Changing Times
  • Cultivating A Global Perspective
  • Location-Based History and Culture
  • How to be a Savvy Traveler

Travel Experience

We travel to beautiful, off-the-beaten-path destinations, and our groups spend their days immersed in daily life in one of our host communities. Each program is thoughtfully customized to support travelers to explore powerful curricular themes through hands-on learning and genuine connections with local people and communities. Curriculum themes can include:

  • Environmental Conservation
  • Education

post-Travel Impact

We believe the journey doesn’t end when you return home, it continues to build momentum. Travel has the power to spark lasting growth, and our post-trip programming supports travelers to reflect on their experience, deepen their learning, and apply new perspectives across their lives, work, and communities. This unique post-travel approach includes:

  • Impact evaluation
  • Follow-up workshops and paired curriculum
  • Opportunities to engage in our alumni community 
  • Exclusive access to networking & leadership events

Explore Our Destinations

We believe that educational travel should be rooted in hands-on learning and deep connections with local people and communities. That’s why we focus on three vibrant destinations where travelers can have unique and authentic experiences like spending the day with a dairy farmer or sharing a meal with a host family.

Panama

Panama remains true to its multicultural past with colonial architecture, artisanal traditions and distinct indigenous communities.

Costa Rica

Costa Rica is a rugged, rainforested, peaceful country with coastlines on the Caribbean and Pacific.

Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic is a vibrant, welcoming country where its rich history and Caribbean culture come alive through music, dance, food, art, and beautiful natural landscapes.
