USIf you are planning a student tour, look no further than Passports! If you want an amazing tour with top-notch customer service, Passports is the company for you! When my French students asked me to take them to Europe over a year ago, I spent hours researching which company to go with. Best decision I've ever made was choosing Passports. I just got back last night from a dream tour of France and Switzerland and am already wanting to plan another trip! All I can think is that they must have some amazing connections and a little bit of magic to get us such a good price and value for our 10-day trip! All of the hotels were in the hearts of the cities, including Paris! They were beautiful hotels too, with luxurious rooms. My students were in heaven. The restaurants provided a good variety of authentic, filling food and a great atmosphere to socialize over our meals. We had enough interested students and parents to make our tour a private tour and customize many activities. My students absolutely loved riding bikes in Versailles park, riding the TGV train and visiting a cheese and perfume factory. We easily hit all of the popular monuments in Paris and still ended with relaxing time on the beach in Nice. Our tour director was also with us every step of the way, making sure everything went smoothly so I could just enjoy getting to know my students, speaking French with them and making memories with them. I am so appreciative that this company did not cut any corners when it came to my tour and really gave us more than we could have asked for in terrms of quality and the best customer service. I cannot wait to travel with them again in the future!

USTheir mantra: "Profit by making customers happy" Excellent everything, would recommend them again! I started planning next year's trip for my students before my current trip had even ended: - Centrally located and quality hotels - Excellent, culturally relevant meals - Well organized itinerary with out any hitches - Enthusiastic tour leaders (I've requested to have our same one for next year's trip, Marc Alia) - Friendly staff and very communicable Passports seems to operate under the oft forgotten mantra of "Profit by making customers happy". I would take a group of 30 travelers to Europe with them ANY time!

USPassports was a great experience! Passports took care of my students and really cared about how our experience went while abroad. For many of my students, this will be a once in a lifetime opportunity and Passports helped it be an amazing experience. When our flights were canceled and the airline refused to help us, Passports stepped in and helped us come up with a solution quickly. The tour director, Nathy, was knowledgeable and took care of everything. The local tour guides made learning about the monuments and history interesting for my students.

USThis is a company that truly cares… This is a company that truly cares about their group leaders and travelers. I had constant effective communication pre travel - during the trip- post travel with Company Headquarters as well as the Tour Director. Each question was answered right away and had the best interest of the traveler in mind. I can't express enough how seamless the trip went. The food was great and the hotels were excellent.

USPassports is incredible! Passports is incredible!! We had such a smooth travel experience from pre-departure to return. Katy and Dale made it so easy to plan and get the trip off the group, our on-site tour director, Alison, was a HUGE hit with both kids and chaperones. The food and accommodations was awesome, and even when our train to Paris was cancelled due to the train strikes, Passports jumped in to solve the problem and still got us to Paris that day. I went on a tour with Passports 9 years ago as a high school student, and it was just as much fun going as a group leader with my own students. Cannot wait to travel with them again!!
