Global Expeditions Group


Global Expeditions Group, or GXG, is the parent company of the Seamester|Sea|mester, ActionQuest, and GoBeyond Student Travel brands.

Over the course of the next 40 years ActionQuest expanded into several other brands including ARC, Sirius Sailing, Lifeworks International, and Sea|mester. In 2012 Global Expeditions Group was formed to organize all of the brands that had grown out of ActionQuest under one parent company.
