IYTC - International Youth Travel Card
"Contributing to international understanding by promoting traveling and
opportunities among students, teachers and youth in general" - that is IYTC's mission.
International
Youth Travel Card is an internationally accepted proof of your status as a
young traveler. The project, started in 1956 has rapidly spread, being today
active all over the world. Acknowledged by governments, cultural
institutions, national and international transport agencies, commercial
agencies and producers of goods and services of national and international
interest, the IYTC card has the support of UNESCO (which has accepted and
presented it as a product of its own) being “an excellent initiative allowing
young people and students to travel in the world, participate in cultural
inter-exchanges and discover the fascination of world culture.”

who share the same passion for travel, adventure and new discoveries.
