Here's Ireland!! My first trip traveling alone and it was better than I could have imagined! It was a small group of mostly teachers with a lot in common. Learned a lot and had a lot of fun doing it. The tour leaders were amazing, very knowledgeable and comfortable to be with. Great food too!

Great up-front disclosures, pointers, and reminders. Small group, so very interactive. Responsive customer service (fast, regardless of time zone). Fantastic value for money. This tour of Iceland was my first GEEO trip. I brought my 22yo daughter - her first trip outside US. Loved the daily opportunities for varied activity levels, and the local guide's passion for his country.

GEEO provided such an excellent product. I think they undersold themselves - I was expecting worse hotels, less knowledgeable tour leaders, etc. It was none of that. I've traveled with other travel companies, and this excelled in so many categories. I have never had faster response times from the customer service side of things. It's shocking how quickly I got my questions answered. I hope that every teacher gets a chance to travel with GEEO in their career. Such a great way to gain cultural awareness and information for the classroom.

I have taken more than 15 trips with GEEO, and hope to take many more. The customer service is outstanding, the itineraries well planned and organized, and the destination offerings keep expanding. My students have benefited, and vicariously lived, through my experiences. I cannot recommend this organization more strongly.

I’ve enjoyed six wonderful trips with GEEO and am looking forward to my seventh adventure. The tours offered by the nonprofit agency are often off the beaten path and to places I might not have found my way to on my own, including Sri Lanks, the Balkans, Central Asia, Turkey and Columbia. Jesse and his staff provide phenomenal support during the process of planning and preparing for each adventure, and they are at the ready to immediately respond to inquiries and provide assistance while you’re traveling. I appreciate that the small group tours are designed to limit negative impacts on the communities visited and to support local economies and development. The tours take you to the most important destinations, but schedules are flexible which enable participants to pursue their own interests. The guides have all been very professional, knowledgeable and focused on providing the best experience for each participant. They also focus on introducing you to the local cultures and providing cultural experiences that give you a strong appreciation for the people encountered. I especially enjoy travelling with fellow educators since I’m a solo traveler, and I’ve found my GEEO companions greatly enhance the trip experience.

I have taken two trips with GEEO and I am incredibly impressed! The staff are very responsive and helpful. Their thoughtfulness and travel expertise creates impressive travel itineraries. The local guides completely make the trip. I highly recommend GEEO!

I have traveled with this company three times now and intend to travel with the company again. The communication of the staff--fast, accurate, helpful--exceeds that of any company I have dealt with in any industry. Tours are well thought out and are engaging and immersive. GEEO offers a wonderful opportunity for teachers and their friends and families to travel and to have meaningful, lasting experiences.

I have been on 6 GEEO trips, and they have all been outstanding. The trips are all well planned, great guides who are passionate about their country and very knowledgeable and FUN! The entire GEEO team is top notch. They respond very quickly to any questions and go above and beyond to be helpful. Just the best! I look forward to joining more trips. I already have 2 planned this summer!
