My Village Travels is in partnership with NVA's Global Village Youth Travel Program in Richmond, VA. Students in the program have traveled almost coast-to-coast on a cross-country tour from Virginia to the Grand Canyon in Arizona. Teachers and students have traveled to a variety of international destinations like Egypt, Ghana, Barbados, Mexico, China, and Belize. Key components of this program include the studying of cultures across the globe and the teaching of Kiswahili, Spanish, Chinese, and Arabic at Nubian Village Academy, Inc. The Global Village program also include regular correspondence with students in other countries. Understanding other cultures helps to blur the lines of separation between people and allows our students to take their place as citizens of the world.

Imagine traveling to places you've only read about in textbooks. Watch the government in action on Capitol Hill in D.C., or experience the culture and excitement of New York City. Spark your passion for science while swimming with dolphins in the Florida Keys or zip lining through the canopy of a Costa Rican rainforest. Stand in awe of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, learn to make pizza in Rome, or go backstage at Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre in London. No matter which educational travel program your family choose, you will have the time of your lives and you will  remember the experience forever!

The small country of Costa Rica is full of exciting sights, sounds, and new experiences for students and adults alike. Encounter a world unlike any other when you zip–line through the trees of a tropical rainforest, work together to brave the rapids of one of Central America’s most beautiful rivers, study live bats, and even learn to cook like a local Costa Rican! The vibrant culture and wildlife of Costa Rica will leave you with memories you won’t soon forget.

Students embrace the arts and history of this 2,000 year old city, visiting renowned sites like St. Paul’s Cathedral, the Tate Modern, Windsor Castle, and Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre.
