Road Scholar has thousands of educational adventures to choose from. A good way to narrow down our list is to browse our collection of "Most Popular" programs.
See all of our Most Popular programs.
While all of our learning adventures offer extraordinary value, our "Best Value" programs were rated by our participants themselves who thought their dollar went particularly far.
EasyFor people looking to exercise their minds more than their bodies. There’s minimal walking and not too many stairs.
ModerateThese programs get you on your feet and include activities such as walking up to a mile in a day through a city and standing in a museum for a few hours.
ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.

What wonderful experiences my 9 year old grand niece and I had on this program!! Our group leader, Donna Fisher was terrific. It is very apparent that she loves children and loves this area of South Dakota. She was very knowledgeable and engaged both children (10 boys and 8 girls) and grandparents (23). I thoroughly enjoyed watching my grand niece experience new things and interact with new people. The nightly presenters were excellent and geared to the children without alienating the adults. Every day there were active things for the children to experience along with museum visits. This provided a great mix of experiences both fun and educational. The lodge is a great place to stay with the children. There is open space for them to run and play in the short amount of free time that we had. This is a very active program. We started our day with a 6 AM wake-up and bedtime was about 10:30. The food while not gourmet was certainly good. I highly recommend this program. My grand niece loved it and is looking forward to an Intergenerational program next year.
