FAQs
What is included in the trip price?
We believe in transparency. Our quotes typically include transportation, hotel accommodations, meals, admissions, lanyards, backpacks, and your Tour Director. We even include the nighttime security guards in our standard packages so safety isn’t an “add-on.”
Can we customize the itinerary, or are they packaged trips?
We specialize in unparalleled custom experiences. While we have proven “Hero” itineraries, we collaborate closely with you to adjust stops, educational focuses, or the pace of the trip to fit your specific classroom goals.
How much work is required of me to promote the trip?
Very little! We provide a Trip Kickoff Kit that includes custom posters and enrollment flyers to make registration simple for parents. We even host your trip kickoff parent meetings to explain the details and walk families through our monthly payment plans, making the process seamless for you.
What should my student pack?
We provide a GL Travel Packing List to every group! Generally, we recommend comfortable walking shoes, layers for changing weather, and one “smart casual” outfit for special dinners or shows. We also provide every student with a GL Travel backpack to keep their gear organized and recognizable while on the move.
What is “Travel Protection Plus” and why should we get it?
Travel involves many moving parts. Our Travel Protection Plus plan provides coverage for trip cancellations, interruptions, and medical benefits per the plan’s maximum limit. It’s the best way to protect your investment and ensure peace of mind if “life happens” before or during the trip.
What safety components are in place during the tour?
GL Travel builds in multiple layers of protection for the group. This includes ABA-approved motorcoaches, student-friendly hotels, and professionally trained Tour Directors. At the hotel, we provide dedicated nighttime security to monitor hallways. Every traveler also receives a 24/7 Emergency Service card with a lanyard, and our office team is always on standby for on-tour support.
I have a food allergy; will I be able to eat with the group?
Absolutely. We take this seriously and ask for this specific information during the registration process on our portal. We then coordinate with our restaurant partners to ensure you have safe, delicious meals throughout the tour.
How do we make payments?
Everything is handled through our secure parent registration portal. To make the trip accessible for every family, we offer flexible monthly payment plans that allow you to spread the cost out over the school year.
What happens if there is a medical emergency or a flight delay? We have a 24/7 Emergency Service
We have a 24/7 Emergency Service line and a proactive response plan. If a flight is delayed, our team handles all the logistics—from rebooking to arranging meals—while your Tour Director keeps the group informed and comfortable.
How are hotel rooms assigned?
Typically, students stay four to a room (quad occupancy). Adults are normally two to a room. However, GL Travel is flexible; we can adjust to alternative rooming configurations based on your school’s specific requests.
