IAC Journeys is delighted to announce its fourth summer of family travel opportunities in conjunction with our world championship-level events! Families attending the 2027 International History Olympiad will have a variety of different tour options to choose from. All IAC Journeys are designed specifically for families with children who are interested in the history and culture of our destination countries. IAC Journeys feature a mix of organized and independent sightseeing which visit the most famous sites in each city, as well as special spots in and between them that aren’t well-known but are well-worth seeing. We aim to visit a variety of sites at a pace that is both suitable for children and which takes full advantage of as much time as we have at each destination. IAC Journeys are staffed by veteran IAC staff members, most of whom have helped lead IAC Journeys in prior summers, but we also rely in certain places on local guides with insider knowledge as well.
A special hallmark of multi-day IAC Journeys are optional friendly competitions that are open to all tour guests. Questions used in bee tournaments on tours are typically past questions from prior IAC events, though new questions are used when needed.
For questions on any of the IAC Journeys for 2027, please contact IAC Executive Director, and primary tour leader, David Madden, directly at david@iacompetitions.com.
