Travel this Summer with EF Tours and SJCP

Do you want to give your students an unforgettable learning experience? Send them across the globe!

Saint John's is happy to partner with EF Tours to offer international educational tours to prospective world travelers. The mission of EF Tours is to offer students "experiential learning, cultural immersion and authentic connections." They are known for providing educationally enriching tours to students at affordable prices.

Tours depart in the early summer and range from 7 to 12 days. Teachers from Saint John's will chaperone your student to destinations around the world. The price of tours includes airfare, hotel lodgings, transportation, most meals and guided tours of sights along the way, with affordable monthly payment plans available.

Education-based travel has been proven to help students develop career-readiness skills such as social-emotional intelligence, adaptability and problem-solving skills that may not be practiced in school - while simultaneously allowing our community to travel to new places outside of Maryland. Spots are limited and we want to give this incredible experience to as many students as possible. With that in mind, the trip will remain open to students only.

Saint John’s will sponsor a trip to Japan & South Korea in the summer of 2025. We want to continue the Saint John’s trip abroad and offer our students educational opportunities not found in our classrooms, and an overall life changing experience abroad.

Italy & Greece 2024

Students Travel to Italy & Greece

Each summer, a group of SJCP students travels abroad for over a week to experience international travel, sightsee, and learn about other cultures. This summer our students and Dr. Mambo are traveling to Italy and Greece. While in Rome, our SJCP students visited the Spanish Steps, the 135 stairs designed by Francesco de Sanctis; Trevi Fountain, the largest Baroque fountain in the city and one of the most famous fountains in the world; and the Pantheon, a former Roman temple and since AD 609, a Catholic church; with a stop between sites for a gelato. On their second day in Rome, they visited Vatican City and toured the Sistine Chapel, St. Peter’s Basilica, the catacombs, and the Basilica of St. Paul outside the walls, where they saw the Jubilee Door that the Pope himself opens every 25 years to celebrate the Jubilee. On their last day in Rome, they visited the Colosseum and the Roman Forum, before heading to Florence with a stop in the medieval town of Orvieto where they visited the Duomo of Orvieto and enjoyed authentic Italian pizza. Florence was magical. Everywhere they turned there was something special. The city was celebrating the Calcio Storico Fiorentino, an early form of football that originated during the Middle Ages in Italy, with a kickoff ceremony with people in medieval costume. From the Ancona harbor, the students traveled to Greece aboard the Venezia Palermo. In Greece, they visited the Meteora mountaintop monasteries, the Delphi archaeological site and museum, and in Athens, the Olympic Stadium, the Syntagma Square, and the Acropolis. In the Acropolis, they visited the Parthenon, the Temple of Athena Nike, and a museum that houses ancient ruins and prehistoric artifacts. They ended their travels in Greece with an evening of music and fun, immersed in a traditional Greek-style feast with feta and fresh Mediterranean flavors. They linked arms for a night of music, dancing, and smashing plates. It was a trip they will never forget!
