The 10‐day itineraries are offered on select voyages aboard the intimate 48‐guest National Geographic Islander (June 26 and Aug 21, 2010) and the 96‐guest National Geographic Endeavour (July 23, July 30, and Sep 24).
The offer is open to teachers defined as any PreK‐12 active (non‐retired) educators.
