Group Leaders Travel Free.

We understand being a group leader can be rewarding, but it is work. Therefore, we want to make sure all of your costs are taken care of. With every eight paying participants, you are entitled to one leader free of charge. It's our way of saying thanks for your hard work.

Your Curriculum Considered.

We can lead all activities, or take a behind-the-scenes role and simply support and empower you and your leadership team. Either way, our extensive briefing materials leave no question unanswered. Even before arrival, we prepare leaders with a reading list, detailed itinerary, cultural etiquette tips and education information on tropical Queensland's flora, fauna, and natural history. Trips can even follow on from and support classroom studies. You will be fully briefed on the itinerary timelines from the moment you step off the plane.

Safety is Our Priority.

Our safety record is immaculate. All of our guides have Senior First Aid certifications for dealing with emergencies, and we have never had a injury requiring a hospital stay. Ask us about our safety standards--we tailor risk management plans to each educational group.

A Custom Quote at No Obligation.

You will have your own personal tour consultant to help you plan the perfect trip. Once we give you a quote, there is no obligation. We are just an email or phone call away to help you plan the ideal educational adventure for your group.

What Teachers Say:

"Thank you for the learning journey you provided for our students. They had a wide range of positive learning experiences and at no time felt like a tourist on a package tour. They encountered a range of challenges and developed the confidence to face fears and broaden their understanding of the world. You did a great job considering our tight budget. My favourite thing was the rapport between Small World Journeys staff, students, and teachers – a collaborative approach. Guides were informative, friendly, and work well with students – always positive and enthusiastic. Will use you again, and know all are looking forward to it!" –Jen Ramamurthy, teacher, The Ela Murray International School, Papua New Guinea (Nov '11)
