FTI works with faculty leaders to create custom itineraries for faculty-led programs abroad. We integrate visits with professionals in your field, experiential-learning activities & sites of interest to create culturally-immersive programs that help your students engage with your course curriculum.
Your tour will be designed to meet your program's unique goals, so we encourage you to share your vision with us. But, if you'd like some help brainstorming, take a look at the "Program Ideas for the Arts" section below to see activities for Visual Arts, Art History, Literature, Performing Arts, Film & Theatre, as well as Culinary Arts.
Engage students through visits with local experts, behind-the-scenes access & hands-on experiences tailored to match your program curriculum.
Work with experienced travel professionals serving university groups for decades in partnership with fully-vetted in-country vendors.
Save time & money working with one agent for all your travel needs: flights, tours, coach, meals, accommodations, cruises, rail & travel insurance.
In addition to handling trip logistics & arranging visits to the typical sites, we can facilitate a variety of interactive activities. Build your own program by packaging any or all of these services.
Here are just a few examples of FTI's capabilities for custom faculty-led tours. Collaborate with us to build upon these ideas & come up with some unique opportunities for your own trip!
In many other countries, people are focused on survival or simply don't have access to the arts in the way Americans do. Encourage your students to share their talent & their passion with local communities through a service-learning program. Professors can work with us to design a unique service project with one of our partner NGOs.
