Let’s Go
The pandemic taught us so many things and one is to seize the day. Study travel has always been open to the public, so grab your friends, neighbors, book club members, dog walker, or whoever is important to you (or is fun!), and join us on an educational adventure. We’ve got so many journeys ready for you and many more in the planning stages. Use the links to the right to get a sense of study travel.
Spotlight on: IRELAND
Lost in Ireland: Enchanting Walking Journey Across the Emerald Isle
Hosted by Kirsten Cahoon ’98, Director of Piper Center for Vocation and Career
July 19–27, 2025
Get to know Ireland at the pace of 3 mph! Take a walk along windswept coastlines. Dodge sheep as you make your way across lush green fields. Walk cobblestone streets in some of the most beautiful towns on the Emerald Isle. Find a local pub, pull up a seat, and order a pint of Guinness. Savor an Irish stew while listening to some live Irish traditional music. This is how Ireland is meant to be experienced.

Traveler Testimonials
“Overall, a fantastic trip. Great mix of people, sights, meals and music.”
“You just cannot top this leadership … The professors … get you to places you’d never know to go to yourself.”
“The diversity of the people on the trips is just great. There are a lot of St. Olaf ties, but not necessarily… we all have a good time.”
