About us

SAT was started in 1983 by Joe McEvoy, a science teacher at the American School in London. It was a small company working within the US expat community, providing academic travel programs for international schools, customized tours for American women’s club members and a range of once-in-a-lifetime family tours to exotic destinations in Africa and the Middle East.

The company has diversified into a broad range of activities which include:

• Student travel for high schools from America and Australia.
• Pilgrimage tours to Europe for church groups particularly from Thailand.
• Sports and entertainment packages in the UK for individuals and corporate clients in Scandinavia and the Far East.
• Tours for alumni associations, museum docent programs and specialist academic institutions in the US and elsewhere.
• Customized travel for the European expat community and their families.

Today SAT Travel is a full-service tour operator with a multi-lingual staff of fourteen travel professionals working out of offices in London and Paris and representatives in Spain, Thailand and the USA.
