Educational trips

There is more to Croatia than meets the eye! Peel away the most prominent layers of beautiful sights and intricate history, and the country reveals a host of opportunities for maximum impact educational trips. Whether it's an international school specialised program (CAS, PDW, LWW), a regular school trip or a university-level study abroad project, we can create meaningful and truly educational connections with the relevant local stakeholders to offer experiences that expand horizons and open minds. Dip into the experience of these ninth graders on their first PDW trip to Croatia.

"Billi and Ivan were brilliant to work with! Their professionalism, knowledge of matching our needs and interests to their program was outstanding. Billi's great communication and hard work to meet our budget was really appreciated. Our students felt cared for and the entire program was planned out so thoughtfully that our trip ran smoothly. When we needed support along the way with a few of our own bumps, we could count on Billi and Ivan to be there and that meant the world. Thank you for all you did to make this trip full of personal growth, excitement and special memories and an overall success!"
