Since 1996 International Cultural Adventures (ICA) has been creating extraordinary cultural, educational, and volunteer service experiences in Asia and South America. Our unique programs cater to adventurous individuals from all walks of life — teachers, students, outdoor enthusiasts, executives, and more.

Our mission is to enlighten the mind and enrich the spirit of each program participant by providing unique travel opportunities to develop new perspectives on life and gain a greater understanding of our global community. ICA programs are not tours but experiences that allow participants to become immersed in the cultures and communities of distant lands.

We believe that leaving your familiar surroundings to travel abroad can profoundly affect your personal growth. Our own curiosity about foreign cultures, combined with our affinity for international travel, has led us around the globe and changed the way we understand the world and our place in it.

Intrigued by mountain cultures, we gravitated to the ancient lands of the Himalaya and the Andes, where we’ve nurtured close relationships with the people of these spectacular regions. Over the years, we’ve developed an extensive network of competent individuals and reliable organizations so that we can assure you a safe and enriching experience.

Ultimately, our team aims to help make the world a better place by creating opportunities for people to serve communities in need, strengthen the bonds between cultures, and increase global awareness and respect.
