Student Tourism

Graduation trips have a major symbolic value in the life of students. Mendoza offers the possibility of combining every activity, from cultural and educational to recreational and sportive ones, with the aim of learning and enjoying through the active participation in the culture and touristic events from the place.

Student tourism is the one practiced by groups of students, mostly with the presence of teachers who arrange visits to historical places, museums, parks, monuments, important natural environments, beaches, mountains, plains, etc.

Student tourism has to be intensely promoted because what is learnt during childhood and adolescence remains for the rest of life. When texts are studied and explained by teachers they are better understood when ascertained with reality and the horizon of life is expanded.

The tourist is always trying to get himself some culture. It is easier to assimilate it when the opportunity of knowing the source of the elements which produce culture arises during childhood or adolescence. In this way, youth tourism becomes a pedagogical factor and a cultural shaping influence.
