GROUP
PROGRAMS
We work closely with group leaders and your organization.
Learning abroad, language skills, community engagement, and making a positive impact—this is what we help your group achieve in Latin America. We work with you to create and manage exciting group programs for a week, a month, a semester, or more. Itineraries are always custom built around your specific group goals.
– University Groups—Faculty-led, student-led, semester abroad, customized programs
– School Groups—High school, middle school, youth groups and clubs
– Family Trips—Families traveling with young children and teenagers
– Corporate Teams—Corporate service, social responsibility, and team building
– Government Programs—Foreign ministries, military personnel, security agencies
Group programs can be designed to focus on University Abroad, Service Learning & Volunteering, Internships, Spanish Immersion, cultural and adventure travel, team-building, or any combination of these programs. Itineraries are carefully planned with group leaders prior to arrival. Maximo Nivel Program Advisors work closely with you from the pre-planning stage to in-country arrival, and back out again. Maximo Nivel is totally dedicated to 24/7, end-to-end support!
If you’re bringing a group of 6 to 60 people, contact us to speak with a Program Advisor. We’d love to work with you and your group in Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Peru!
