Putney Student Travel partners with schools and other organizations to create customized experiential education programs for student groups. For 75 years, we’ve been a leader in educational travel, collaborating with teachers and educators to design programs that leverage our local expertise and travel experience to meet curricular goals. Since 1951, our team has facilitated deep immersion experiences and cultural exchange on journeys off the beaten track, across the globe.
“We have collaborated with Putney on five travel programs now, and each one has been safe, well organized, and has provided my colleagues and students with a true immersion experience. The most rewarding aspect though, is to see the students return with an expanded view of their place in the world and an ongoing commitment to global understanding.”
— Cathy B., Teacher, Memorial High School, Houston, TX

Decades of Experience
For over seven decades, our team has facilitated deep immersion experiences and cultural exchange on journeys off the beaten track, across the globe. We empower young people to explore with curiosity and empathy in an increasingly globalized world, and enable greater understanding of complex issues that will shape our future.
Custom-Built Itineraries
Our program directors collaborate closely with partner schools and organizations to develop a program itinerary and curriculum that match your educational goals and needs. Partners may choose a destination and combine diverse themes, such as service learning, language immersion, creative writing, ecology and conservation, or history, and our directors will draw on local networks and experience to design a unique program to meet your curricular goals. Whether you wish to examine biodiversity in the Costa Rican rainforest, study political science in the halls of Oxford University, or develop Spanish language skills in Ecuador, there is a Putney program for your group.
