Catalog Tour · Europe

London, Normandy, the Loire Valley and Paris

This ten-day itinerary traces two countries and four distinct landscapes — from the Thames to the Normandy coast, from the château country of the Loire to the boulevards of Paris — giving students a rare chance to read European history in sequence rather than snapshot. The crossing from London to Caen on Day 4, with dinner aboard the ferry, marks the literal and figurative pivot of the tour: one moment you're in Britain, and the next you're arriving on the same coastline where the Second World War turned. That crossing alone tends to be the moment groups talk about for years afterward.

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.

Overall

When we switched to Passports from our previous travel company, we wanted two things: better food and less time on the bus. Passports exceeded our expectations! We loved having hotels where we could walk and didn't have to get on a bus. Even riding the subway in London was a fun experience!

Overall

Great tour! We loved being in only 2 hotels and we were able to move at our own pace. One of our best tours ever.
