For destination & travel partners

You handle
the local travel.
We lead
the learning.

We are looking first for inbound travel partners who can coordinate a school group's journey in their country: accommodation, transport, visits, experiences and access to field experts.

Together, we explore the options. Edutours shapes the itinerary and learning curriculum, then offers the programme to schools.

The partners
we want to meet.

Our priority is an inbound partner who can coordinate the full local journey. We also need UAE-based group visa support and welcome partners with useful local access.

01 / OUR MAIN PRIORITY

Full-service inbound travel partners

Bring together accommodation, meals, airport transfers, local transport, visits, experiences and access to field experts. We shape the itinerary together, with your team coordinating the agreed services in the destination.

02

UAE-based group visa support

Help coordinate visas for students and accompanying staff travelling from the UAE, including document collection, applications and timelines. Tell us which destinations and traveller profiles you can support.

03

Regional access & specialist partners

You may know a region, run a distinctive experience or connect us to a field expert, institution or community. You do not need to deliver the full trip to contribute.

Tourism organisations, hotels, transport providers, experience hosts and educational institutions are welcome to introduce their services and local connections too.
Before you invest time

Clearer expectations.
A more useful conversation.

You need a useful brief, an agreed scope and a clear contact, not a vague request to organise a school trip. We work through the educational and travel requirements together.

01

What is the group coming to learn?

Edutours defines the learning subject and goals. We discuss suitable experiences and field experts with you, alongside age group, group size, travel period and operating needs.

02

What are we expected to handle?

For a lead inbound partner, we want coordinated local delivery with a named contact. We agree which stays, transport, visits, expert sessions and other services your team will handle, and what sits with Edutours or a specialist.

03

Who designs and presents the programme?

Edutours leads the curriculum, final itinerary and school conversation. You contribute destination knowledge, local options, expert access and practical planning, without needing to write the educational curriculum yourself.

04

Does an introduction mean a booking?

No. We develop the programme first, agree scope, rates, capacity and terms, then confirm group bookings separately. An introduction is not a promise of passenger numbers.

An example makes it clearer

A marine ecology
programme.

Start with the learning goal, then identify the locations, professionals, experiences and travel arrangements that can make it work.

01 / The Edutours learning brief

Understand coastal life through people who work with it.

Students could learn with a marine biologist or conservation professional, observe a coastal habitat and complete a practical group task. Edutours sets the learning goals and builds the curriculum.

Learning goalsExpert-led sessionsHands-on activities
02 / The destination partner's input

Bring the places, people and local travel together.

You identify suitable sites and field experts, advise on distances and access, and coordinate accommodation, meals, transport, visits and session bookings within the agreed scope.

A few useful answers

Before we
begin.

Can we suggest a new destination or activity?

Yes. Your local knowledge helps us find the right places, people and experiences for a learning theme. We develop the route together; Edutours makes the final decisions on the destination, curriculum and itinerary it offers schools.

Do we need to deliver the entire local itinerary?

A full-service inbound partner is our preference for coordinating the overall local journey. We also welcome partners for a specific region, experience, expert session or service. Each role is agreed separately.

Are you looking for visa partners in the UAE?

Yes. We want UAE-based partners who can support group visa coordination for students and accompanying staff travelling overseas. Tell us the destinations and traveller profiles you handle, along with your document, application and coordination process.

What should our first message include?

Your organisation, countries or regions covered, website and whether you offer full local delivery, group visa support or specialist access. Tell us about school-group experience, accommodation and transport options, links to experts and any useful indicative costs.

Who presents the programme to schools?

Edutours presents the programmes and leads the school conversation. Destination partners help develop a practical itinerary, source suitable experiences and experts, and coordinate the agreed local services.

Full journeys. Useful local connections.

Tell us where
you can help.

Share the countries or regions you cover and whether you can coordinate the full local journey, support group visas from the UAE or provide a specific experience or expert connection.

Start with your capabilities and local connections. We can develop the itinerary together.
