ARCC offers diverse adventures in 4 categories:


1. Community Service Adventures:  ARCC's Community Service Adventures offer a chance to give something back to the communities we visit while taking part in world-class adventure activities. Service sections include teaching English to local school children, caring for elephants/sea turtles/pandas, and building much needed facilities in rural villages.


3. Language & Service Adventures:  Language Adventures are international programs where learning a language, exploring the culture, and getting off the beaten path are an integral part of the adventure.  Features time at accredited language schools working with native speakers, and working on community service projects.  Time not in class will be spent exploring cities and participating in adventure activities like windsurfing, whitewater rafting, surfing and zip-lining.


4. Multisport Adventures:  Our Multisport Adventures offer a range of activities like rafting, rock climbing, or sea kayaking, as well as overnight wilderness backpacking in North America and Europe. Curriculum focuses on individual development and group leadership. Multisport Adventures are suitable for both “first timers” and experienced students. 


5. Gap  Semester Programs:   Gap Year Semester Programs offer an educational and cultural bridge between high school and college and an opportunity to live, work, learn and explore in some of the greatest classrooms on earth.  Over the course of this academic journey, we examine five essential themes pertaining to our geographies: Public Health, Education and the Community, Urbanization and the Movement of Peoples, Environment and Conservation, Clean Water and Development, and Microfinance and Economic Growth.  ARCC offers GAP Fall Semesters in Africa, Latin America and Asia.  Each program is one academic semester (3 months).
