International Geography tours
Geography Tours with Latitude Group Travel: Real places, real learning.
Our geography tours help students move beyond the classroom to explore real landscapes and communities. These hands-on experiences support the Australian Curriculum and IB frameworks, allowing students to apply what they’ve learned in practical settings while building curiosity and critical thinking that will last well beyond the tour.
Educational Geography Trips Tailored to You
We make geography field trips in Australia and abroad seamless, inspiring, and fully customised to your curriculum. Whether you choose to focus on a specific unit, topic, or global issue, we’ll work closely with you to build a meaningful tour that meets your learning goals – even if your school is located outside of Australia.
All of our educational geography trips include a strong focus on fieldwork; with access to up-to-date, high-quality resources thanks to our partnership with the Geography Teachers’ Association of Victoria, our tours always remain current and relevant to your students. Why not combine Geography with other subjects like Science or Environmental Studies for a multi-group, environmental, educational tour? While each group pursues their own workshops and fieldwork, they can travel and sightsee together for a connected, collaborative experience. This flexible approach helps schools meet minimum participant numbers and leaves plenty of opportunity for cross-curricular experiences.
GEOGRAPHY SUBJECT ACTIVITIES
Our itineraries allow your group to take in iconic sights, combined with as many fieldwork experiences, classes, workshops, themed guided tours and curriculum-linked, experiential learning activities as you wish. We ensure that academic and practical endeavours are age and experience appropriate. Our knowledge of the curriculum (state, national and International Baccalaureate, along with any other curriculum you may teach) and our consultative process, ensures that we understand the learning outcomes you require.
Example experiential learning activities:
- Study volcanic activity at Mountt Vesuvius or Mount Etna.
- Explore earthquake readiness in Japan.Examine geothermal landscapes and Māori culture in Rotorua.
- A full day workshop examines the issue of responsible tourism and sustainable development, while researching and producing a hypothetical community project, relevant to a particular country.
- At an ecologically focussed centre, students can explore issues of environment, sustainability and renewable energy through education programs which offer them a range of activities, including the opportunity to climb a wind turbine. Students can also visit an organic biodiversity garden, see the tracking solar panel and experience the eco-building design.
- Take a tour with scientists or meteorologist to directly observe a glacier and analyse ice core data to answer questions about the impact human activity has on the climate and the science behind global warming.
- Recognise the issues affecting food security by visiting coffee plantations, rice farming communities or palm oil plantations and develop lobbying skills, in group action workshops, on fair trade issues.
- Spend a day with the volcanoes for Hazards and Disasters fieldwork. You’ll have a magnificent view of the caldera, walk through a lava tube and hear about the whole volcanic area from professional volcanologists. It’s a day you’ll never forget!
