Who Can Travel With Us: All Educator Tours are open to the general public. East County Schools FCU has been the corporate sponsor of this trip since its inception and as such, the trip is largely comprised of members of the East County education community, working and retired, and their friends and families. There is so much FUN on these trips, and such a connection amongst travelers, that many travelers attend year after year. Every year, our trip has an optional side tour to an educational facility in that area, which contributes to making them a work expense for some. Educator Tours are booked through the East County Chamber of Commerce, who hosts additional trips throughout the year.
