Created in conjunction with National Geographic Education, this unique, hands-on program teaches kids and teens how to explore the natural world like scientists on every Galápagos, Alaska, Baja California, and on select Iceland and Antarctica itineraries. Young travelers can choose fun activities, from dropping a net on the side of a zodiac to collect plankton to recording wildlife sightings in their field notebook. Each learning opportunity is designed to help them see and do more.
Destinations like Alaska and the Galápagos hold infinite opportunities for young travelers to nurture new relationships with the natural world. Our certified field educators at the helm of the National Geographic Explorers-in-Training program are experts at interpreting the fascinating stories of species and their habitats so kids and teens can return home inspired to protect the planet. Educators are specifically trained to lead invigorating activities and to teach about specific plant and animal features like the scales on a fish or a giant coral head. Kids are also given creative flexibility to record their observations in their field notebook and tell stories about what they see and do through photos, videos, music, and drawings. In this program, mentors help drive them to lead the next generation of explorers.
