Vanuatu Study Tours have been operating since 2005. Initially established to offer a French immersion alternative to New Caledonia, tours have now extended to cover other key learning curriculum areas.

All tours are tailored to suit the needs/outcomes of the schools and the students at an affordable price. Most tours cost less than $2000 per person for flights, accommodation, all meals and activities (based on 20 students travelling with 2 teachers free of charge).

Vanuatu is a fascinating and accessible destination (less than three hours from Brisbane, less than four hours from Sydney). Formerly the New Hebrides, Vanuatu is the safe, friendly face of the South Pacific and combines curriculum areas with a lot of culture, fun and soft adventure. It has aspects of third world with infrastructure, accommodation and dining options that are first world.

Vanuatu has been officially ranked as the 'happiest nation on the planet' and part of the journey for all students is to gain an understanding of how people can be happy without the materialism to which we are accustomed. While the experience may be life changing for some students, it is certainly one that all students (and teachers) will have as a life memory. Hop into the navigation bar on the left and keep in mind that more than one key learning area can be incorporated into the same itinerary.

Because of limited flights, tour operators, buses for transfers etc it is a case of 'first in, best dressed' for available travel dates. Small Guide Travel offers personal service and local knowledge to ensure every school group has a rewarding experience and returns safely to their families, 'tired but happy' - we pack a lot into our itineraries!

NOTE: The Williams Model in the Gifted & Talented section can be adapted to any curriculum area.
