SEARCH TIPS: STUDENT TRAVEL

In this student tours and discounts section our aim is threefold:

1 Firstly to list companies offering dedicated student travel.

2 Secondly to list travel companies, of all sizes, offering discounts to students on travel and holiday packages. We are particularly interested in specialist travel companies, often the smaller players offering the harder to find deals. Specialist travel will correspond to the specialist categories in the rest of the Travel-Quest directory – so covering things like sailing, horse riding and cookery.

3 Finally we list travel providers who offer deals to student groups and clubs, including discounts and free places.

Beware of some 'Student Discounts'

student offers We just want to make you aware that not all trips badged as having a 'student discount' are what they say they are! Some are just a standard package that's had a 'student discount' label added. Some of these are still good deals, but not all and some may actually be offering rates that are worse than the standard deal. Our advice is to check and compare with other travel providers and aggregators before booking, make sure you really are getting a special student deal!
