Built for education groups.

Student travel rarely fits neatly into individual retail policies. Perrymount can shape one group arrangement around your travellers, destinations and trip profile.

One group route

One agreed arrangement rather than separate retail policies for each traveller.

Manifest administration

One trip manifest can replace individual applications where agreed.

Mixed participant groups

Students, teachers, leaders and chaperones can be considered together.

Mixed nationalities

International student groups with different nationalities can be considered.

For schools, universities and education organisers.

Perrymount is designed for organisations arranging group travel abroad, including educational tours, study programmes, fieldwork and activity-led trips.

The arrangement can be shaped around the group rather than asking each participant to buy a separate individual policy.

Schools · Universities · Study-abroad programmes · Education partners · Student travel organisers
