We Welcome Your Application to Join Us!

We build each of our groups with care, keeping the groups small (no more than twelve students), and paying close attention to age, grade, gender, and the mix of hometowns and schools. Our goal is to put together great groups — groups where nice kids thrive in a supportive, wholesome, and caring environment. Please note: availability as shown is based on students traveling without a friend; if your child is interested in traveling with a friend, please call our office for availability.

Travel Protection Plan

As trip payments to Overland are non-refundable after March 1st, we recommend that all Overland families consider purchasing a travel protection plan. We have partnered with Travel Insured International (TII) to offer the Overland Travel Protection Plan. This plan is only available to U.S. residents. You can view detailed information about the plan or ask specific questions by calling TII directly at 844-440-8113 and referring to Account ID #61870. The plan can be purchased by enrolled families directly through the Overland family portal.

For students traveling abroad, Overland requires proof of travel protection, specifically medical evacuation coverage.
