Safety Matters

Our excellent track record is proof of our great preparation and dedication to safety on our programs. Students, family members, and teachers enjoy incredible experiences knowing they are in good hands.

Our safety measures include an ETSI member being available at every hotel as well as licensed evening security guards to monitor the hallways. In addition, all of our staff members are trained in first aid and emergency response.

We also know that safety really begins with the students. Pre-travel meetings will cover expectations of the trip and ensure that each student understands their behavior responsibilities prior to departure.

We hope that our dedication to safety can give you that piece of mind that is crucial when making the decision to send your student on a journey of a lifetime.

Our arrangements include:

• Quality accommodations with inside corridors
• Nighttime, uniformed security for each group (private company for domestic tours)
• On-Site Coordinators available 24 hours a day, seven days a week during the trip
• Drivers, Security Staff and On-Site Coordinators all have passed rigorous background checks
• Comfortable transportation with professionally trained and licensed guides
• Emergency phone cards with numbers that reach Tour Directors and the ETSI Emergency Hotline.
• Final itinerary including hotel names, addresses, phone numbers and arrival and departure dates.
• A comprehensive emergency management plan
