What Do Our Custom Journeys Offer?

Our customized AltruVistas tours offer an alternative and increasingly popular form of educational travel, exclusively tailored to the particular interests of your group. Whether your group is a foundation, a family, a university or middle school class, a membership organization, a church group, a group of professionals, or simply a group of like-minded people, AltruVistas can organize your custom tours. AltruVistas’ custom travel experiences are structured so that your group can collectively gain first-hand experience with the people and organizations that are involved in issues important to your focus. We facilitate meaningful exchanges with the people who form the political, economic, social, and cultural fabric of the society and region visited. Through these informal and formal interactions, our participants come away with an informed and enriched understanding of the accomplishments and hopes of people from diverse backgrounds.

Our diverse itineraries always incorporate meetings, on-site visits, and interactions with community organizations, government officials, journalists, scientists, university professors, doctors, writers, artists, musicians, dancers, environmentalists, and representatives from various religious groups. And yes, each journey builds in time for reflection, relaxation, and fun.

Why Choose AltruVistas For Your Custom Group Tour?

AltruVistas’ Custom Journeys are privately branded trips. We utilize the pillars of experiential education, philanthropy, and social responsibility to craft your custom journey.
