Specialties
We specialize in youth and student travel, but that just means we're experts in getting the best prices. We are proud of our unique youth orientated programs like the Student Work Abroad Programme (SWAP) and the International Student Identity Card (ISIC), to name just a few. But for people who aren't students and who are young at heart, we can provide great travel experiences. Anyone can travel with us.
History
Established in 1969.
We've been around for more than 45 years. The first office of the company that would become today's Travel CUTS opened its doors on the University of Toronto campus in 1969. From the outset, we've been owned by student organizations -- first the Association of Ontario Student Councils (AOSC), and then in 1981, the Canadian Federation of Students-Services (CFS-S) .

"I love my job because it's something different every day. I enjoy the relationships I have with clients that have been with me/us for several years, and the annual vacations they take to the Caribbean, Cruising or Europe; at the same time, the students we deal with on an every day basis, most attending the University of Waterloo, or Wilfrid Laurier, are such enthusiasts in the travel market, I'm thrilled to be going on the adventure with them, right up to their departure date!"
