Founded in 1972 and based in the Southwest Crossing office center, Intercultural Student Experiences is a non-profit organization that sponsors educational travel programs in South and Central America, Europe and Asia.
With experiential culture and language programs that give students the opportunity to experience life in other countries, the company "offers students an 'educational explorer' approach to travel rather than a tourist approach." Teacher-led group trips are offered through Intercultural Student Experiences, with French, German, Spanish and Mandarin language programs available.
