Program Highlights

Paddle your way down the Garonne River on a kayak with your fellow Global Navigators.

Step into the manufacturing plant at Airbus and see the A380 and A350 under construction, and then go behind the scenes to the final assembly line for a peek at what’s next in aerospace innovation.

Stay at an eco-lodge in the Haut Languedoc Natural Park, go hiking across undulating hills and meadows, and cross a footbridge 200 feet high to a medieval village.

Climb aboard the history of aviation at the Aeroscopia, see the Super Guppy and sleek Concorde, then walk on the moon and behold Earth from outer space at La Cité de l’Espace.

Cross the stone bridge into the fortified city of Carcassonne and feel the Middle Ages around you, tour the chateau and ramparts, and take in the magnificent views!

Building rockets and parachutes!

It's an amazing experience, and also fun. It lets you interact with the culture of other countries and also meet new people who are very nice and welcoming. I loved building a rocket with my friends that went at least 500 meters and deploying a pretty good parachute.
