About Us

WHO WE ARE

G.E.T Educational Tours is Australia’s largest and most experienced educational tour provider, having been established since 1960. We send over 12,000 students away each year within Australia and overseas for life-changing and enriching experiences. Our dedicated team of over 20, hailing from 5 continents are passionate about educational travel and providing a friendly, professional service.

We understand how much work is involved in organising a school tour and are here to support teacher and group leaders every step of the way. We offer advice on risk assessments, example itineraries, DFAT warnings, budgeting and much more. If you are in the metropolitan area of Melbourne or Brisbane we’ll even come to your school and conduct an information evening to your students and parents, and help out at your airport departure. We support you all the way with a dedicated 24 hour emergency line to senior management whilst you are away.

Our vision is for every student and teacher to grow by safely exploring the world and experiencing all its diversity.


A MESSAGE FROM DAVID CONKLIN, HEAD OF AUSTRALIA

Year after year, I’ve been continually reminded to stop and appreciate where I am and what I’m experiencing. It’s helped me identify both details about myself and my surroundings. A tour with G.E.T Educational Tours is a fantastic way to utilize this practice. When you take your students’ learning beyond the classroom walls, they will not only discover new destinations but also broaden their horizons, expand their perspectives, and grow as individuals. While you watch them learn and take your lessons to new heights in incredible unfamiliar places, you’ll be sure to find life-changing moments of your own along the way.

We strive to make educational travel easy, fun, and safe for students and teachers alike. We go above and beyond in making safety our top priority with highly trained staff who are there for you 24/7 and are prepared to handle anything. By providing unmatched safety protocols, high-quality programs, and peace of mind for all our travellers, we ensure each day you’re on tour with us holds new opportunities to learn, grow, and invigorate.

Between all our lines of business, we have many destinations for you to choose from both domestically and internationally; from performing arts trips to history tours, and more. Now with so many options and itineraries to customize, we help you find the perfect trip to meet your students’ goals and needs. No matter which destination you choose to visit, you’ll have the support of a tenured global network of experience behind you every step of your journey.

I hope this inspires you to consider what your students could benefit from most and that you find the perfect place to start. If not, feel free to reach out to our team. We’re happy to discuss the best ways you can create transformative memories for your students as they learn more about the world.
