About

Away We Go Tours is a 100% Australian, family-owned business established in 2003. Our primary objective is to make the excursion booking process incredibly easy and time-efficient for teachers, recognising the time constraints and responsibilities they face.

The Directors of the company have over 38 years of experience in the school excursion market and with firsthand teaching experience, they saw the need for a specialist school travel agency, to manage all logistics of the excursion planning process.

Initially operating from a small office in Berridale, located in the NSW Snowy Mountains, AWGT started by serving a small handful of schools. However, due to its dedication and quality services, it quickly grew into an all-destination travel agency. In May 2003, AWGT obtained a license (2TA5460), and in 2014, it achieved ATAS Accreditation. The company continued to grow in terms of staff, bookings, and locations.

Away We Go Tours vision is to provide high-quality, engaging, and professionally planned excursions. As the school environment constantly changes and teachers face higher workloads, we aim to alleviate the administration involved in excursion planning. We specialise in providing a complete school excursion itinerary planning service for educational school excursions within Australia and internationally. This includes organising accommodation, attractions (tours and programs), transport, and travel insurance.

Away We Go Tours has an ever-expanding array of travel services and employs specialised school travel consultants in multiple school localities, enabling them to cater to a growing number of schools.

Our approach is to provide a vast range of experiential learning opportunities that strike a balance between educational value and fun group bonding activities. By doing so, we can ensure that every student has a memorable, experiential school experience beyond the traditional classroom setting.
