Teacher Benefits

Free International Cell Phone

Teachers receive a free international cell phone to use on tour, which comes with a $10 credit. Students can rent phones from the same company, and in most cases calls between group members are free.

Single Rooms

NETC head teachers and group organizers enjoy a single room each night of their tour.  You may of course share a double or twin if you prefer.

Included Insurance

The basic insurance which NETC includes for students is also included for teachers.  The coverage provided in this policy is extremely important.

Private Tours

Meeting and traveling with other groups is an enriching experience, and is often the highlight of many tours.  However, some teachers prefer to take a private student tour, which can be done by special arrangement.
