Open Enrollment Tour

Madrid and Barcelona

Spain's two great capitals sit at opposite ends of the country and opposite ends of a certain argument about what makes Spanish culture tick. Madrid is imperial and land-locked, its wide boulevards radiating out from a royal palace that once governed half the known world. Barcelona faces the Mediterranean, guards its Catalan identity fiercely, and moves to a different rhythm altogether. This eight-day tour plants your group squarely in both cities, giving students enough consecutive days in each to stop being tourists and start paying attention.

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 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!!!!!”
