Open Enrollment Tour

Classical Adventure

Classical Adventure takes your group across two of the most storied civilizations in Western history — ancient Greece and imperial Rome — in nine days that move from the Acropolis to the Colosseum with a pause on the sun-drenched Sorrentine Peninsula in between. The arc of the tour is purposeful: Athens first, where the foundations of democracy, philosophy, and architecture are still visible in stone; then south through Italy, where those ideas were absorbed, adapted, and projected across an empire. It is a route that rewards students who have studied either culture in the classroom and want to stand inside the spaces they have only seen in textbooks.

What teachers say

Verified by teachers — two ways.

On the left, the public Trustpilot reviews any group leader can write — and any future group leader can read. On the right, quotes from the private post-tour evaluation that every group leader fills out after their trip ends. See all teacher evaluations.

Reviews on Trustpilot are public and verified. Trustpilot prohibits companies from paying to have them removed — so what teachers say here is exactly what teachers said about traveling with Passports.

I can not say enough about the excellent staff at Passports! They made organizing and executing this trip a breeze! It was so well organized and accommodating — I would totally recommend Passports as the tour company for student travel.

I would not change a single thing about this tour or the people we worked with. I wish I could do it all over again. Students were saying it was the best trip they have ever had and did not want to leave. I could not thank everyone enough. THANK YOU!!!!!
