About Us

Routes to Learning Canada (RLC) is Canada’s first learning travel organization for older adults and proud provider of Road Scholar (Elderhostel) Inc., programs. With over 20 years experience RLC remains committed to the belief that lifelong learning opens minds and enriches lives. If you’re interested in gaining new insights and learning about cultural, natural, and historical environments—whether across the world or in your own community, then we have an experience awaiting you!

Our resident experts share the same quest for discovery as you do and are passionate about striking the perfect balance between learning and adventure—introducing you to new experiences and thought-provoking discussions that will leave you with lasting impressions. Because of your small group size, enjoy the benefits of unencumbered access to the real “insider’s perspective”—going behind the scenes to pursue activities and connect with local people in ways unheard of in conventional large-group travel.

You’ll love our programs for the same flexibility that independent travel offers while avoiding all the headaches that go with it! You’ll enjoy plenty of time to reflect and explore what interests you most—either on your own or in the company of fellow like-minded travelers.

Take some time to explore our website. Herein you’ll discover an inspired collection of popular program favourites and new additions that we’ve developed for you by people like you who share in the same spirit of learning and discovery. We hope that you’ll join us soon for a learning travel experience that we’re sure, like so many, will keep you coming back for more!
