Programs are designed for travelers who seek an authentic international experience while cultivating lasting connections to the people and places they visit.<\/p>\n<h4>Our Philosophy<\/h4>\n<p>It's all about the people! Whether you're staying with a host family, sitting alongside the bus driver on a cross-country haul or negotiating with a vendor for a new souvenir, the locals you meet along the way will illuminate your trip. Walking Tree programs are intentional about visiting places and organizing activities that put travelers in a position to get the most out of every interaction. Trips are private, so you won't be combined with another group whose goals don't match yours.<\/p>\n<p>We stand for a more open, curious, and compassionate approach to travel. Walking Tree partners with teachers and families from around the country to provide memorable small-group experiences where travelers are assured a well-organized, thoughtfully planned, and expertly led program.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Mission Our mission\u00a0is to inspire students on their path to becoming curious, compassionate and engaged global citizens.
