TripCARE
STA has the plan! You can travel confidently with TripCARE; our proven, proprietary travel system that keeps your group safe while you enjoy the experience of a lifetime! While some tour operators struggled, we have been operating safe, amazing trips since the spring of 2021. Click to find out more here.
RELATIONSHIPS
Our loyal group leaders are more than clients, they're also family. We were there for each other during these really challenging times. Some companies filed for bankruptcy or gave no refunds during COVID. But we trusted our groups and they have trusted us. Now we are traveling again – TOGETHER. You are not a “number” with STA. We are employee-owned, and teacher focused.

PRICE
We all want the best price for our groups. And we all know that some companies will show a low price at first, but what is the real cost? Our value-driven all-inclusive programs will give you a great price, and an even greater value. It’s not just the price, it’s also the reputation and credibility as you sponsor a trip. STA is the name teachers trust for the best value in the industry, and the best trip for your students.
