Teacher Benefits

Tour leaders are the CEOs of their groups. They employ marketing strategies to design and promote their tours, and they exercise masterful management skills as they guide large numbers of teenagers across Europe. We feel that our tour leaders earn their spot on a trip because we know how hard they work to make it happen.

Whether this is your first trip with TSA Tours or twentieth, you must fill out this application completely to assure that we have the latest up-to-date information for your file:

Tour Director & Adviser Application

Here are some of the perks we offer tour leaders to say “thanks” for their efforts:


Free travel for tour leaders and advisers

Tour leaders and advisers will always travel free as part of a group program. We can base your ratio on the “industry standard” 1:6, meaning we give you one free trip for an adult chaperone for every six paying participants.

Since we are a custom tour operator, we can work with your individual needs to select the appropriate level of supervision in balance with your budget. That could mean a ratio of 1:5, all the way to 1:20. It depends on your group and your needs, so contact us for a custom consultation.

Faculty & family discounts

We offer discounts for your colleagues and family members. Please contact us for a complete description of the discount applicable on your program. (Participants traveling on these discounts will not count toward your free travel ratio or stipends.)

Insurance included

Our full travel, accident and baggage insurance is provided at no cost to tour leaders and advisers.

Free airline deviation

For tour leaders or advisers wishing to extend their travel by returning on a different date and / or from a different gateway than their group, we will waive the $150 deviation fee. Any additional airfare costs will be applied.

We invoice participants and collect trip payments

We have eliminated any potential burden for you by collecting payments for your trip.We ask that you collect your student’s initial deposit with their application cards, signed by parents. This protects you by allowing you to determine who registers for your trip.

We’ll send out an invoice reflecting their initial deposit, and from that point forward, we handle all billing matters. To keep you in the picture, we’ll email you a statement of all payments made each month.
