What is GO Tours?
Empowering students to explore their world through educational travel
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower students to learn through exploration. We design educational travel experiences that combine learning, adventure, and personal growth—helping students connect what they study in the classroom with real-world history, culture, and service. By carefully planning every detail—from transportation and accommodations to guided tours and hands-on activities—we ensure that each journey is safe, seamless, and impactful. Our goal is to inspire curiosity, deepen understanding, and build lasting friendships, all while encouraging students to develop leadership, character, and a lifelong love of learning.
Our Values
We create exceptional, education-focused travel experiences for public and charter schools. Our tours combine thoughtfully designed itineraries with professional logistics and experienced guides who bring history, culture, and civic life to life at every destination. From the monuments of Washington, D.C., to arts and cultural programs, each journey is carefully planned to deepen understanding, strengthen community, and inspire students to engage with the world thoughtfully and responsibly.
Our Story
GO Tours was born from a simple yet powerful vision: to create educational travel experiences that truly meet the needs of students and educators. Our founder, Nathan Lambert, spent over 23 years leading tours as a school teacher and principal, and he often struggled to find providers who shared his commitment to meaningful, academically enriching travel. Determined to fill that gap, Nathan began designing tours himself, carefully crafting itineraries that combine classroom learning, cultural exploration, and real-world experiences.
Today, GO Tours works hand-in-hand with public and charter schools to design custom trips that align with each school’s educational goals, curriculum objectives, and vision for their students. Every detail—transportation, accommodations, meals, activities, and guides—is thoughtfully planned to ensure students grow in knowledge, build lasting friendships, and return home with unforgettable experiences.
