My twins had a great time! They loved Barbara (their tour guide), said she was amazing. They would 100% recommend the trip and would definitely go back given the chance! Thank you for taking such good care of them!

The group loved all of the tours and the kids had a lot of fun. Jerome was amazing and always responded fast. He was very accommodating throughout the entire process. Paul was very knowledgeable about everything around the city. He had a lot of information that he gave to the group and was great with directions. All of the food places were awesome. Sudhouse worked really well with us. Some of the students had to switch theirs meals and they switched them no questions asked.
