WorldStrides

Explore. Discover. Become.

WorldStrides, formerly Casterbridge Tours, are an educational travel company specialising in customised educational group tours. 

In 1979, a group of former educators founded Casterbridge Tours and focused initially on literary tours of Britain. Over the years, Casterbridge expanded to offer an extensive worldwide portfolio of customised short-term travel abroad experiences that were  educational, culturally immersive, and personally rewarding.

In 2011 Casterbridge Tours joined WorldStrides, one of the largest and most trusted providers of educational student travel. This partnership added significant resources to Casterbridge Tours, elevating the traveller experience.

In 2012, fellow international travel provider NETC joined with Casterbridge to form the International Division of WorldStrides, further enhancing the unmatched list of benefits customers currently enjoy. Today the division is known as WorldStrides International Discovery. At the heart of every International Discovery tour is our commitment to personal service, quality, and educational value.

All tours for our UK schools are planned and operated by our sales and operations staff based in Sherborne in Dorset.
