Student Travel
A leading educational tour operator in Laos
We create educational travel experiences for students without compromising the unique cultural, social and environmental heritage of Laos.

“We provide on-the-ground expertise to create a safe learning environment for students and local communities”
Service-Learning Programs
Our service-learning programs bridge the gap between locals and volunteer. Together, they have collaborated on community development projects such as construction of new schools, village meeting houses and the Eco Bungalow, a community-based tourism initiative.

Project Management
We have developed a Project Management process to help maximize the impacts of your service-learning experience. Projects are typically planned 3-6 months in advance.
- Field site inspections and surveys with villagers to determine community needs.
- Follow-up meetings with villagers to establish volunteer project work and estimated project time frame.
- Review of project construction logistics by Fair Trek Technical Advisor.
- Confirmation of proposed project and financial assistance from customer.
- Project facilitation and oversight by Fair Trek Technical Advisor.
- Post-project evaluation.
Impact
Volunteers from all over the world have helped remote villages build new community infrastructure and encourage sustainability. We’ve worked with a diverse range of local villages and continue to foster our relationships with these dynamic communities.
Student Expeditions
Student Expeditions range from short adventure tours of 3-4 days to country-wide month-long journeys.
From swimming in the azure waters of the famous Kuang Si waterfall to living with a host family in a remote village, students will learn firsthand about Laos’ stunning biodiversity and multi-cultural heritage.
Our experienced Fair Trek tour guides have been trained to lead student groups and are always eager to show students – and group leaders – what makes Laos so unique.
Whatever your goal, we will work with you to create an itinerary that suits your needs.
