Open Enrollment Tour

Paris and Barcelona

Paris and Barcelona together form one of the most instructive contrasts in European travel — a French capital built around grand boulevards and Enlightenment institutions set against a Catalan port city where modernist architecture and a distinct regional identity push back against any easy idea of what 'European culture' means. This eight-day tour moves your group through both cities with enough time in each to get past the surface: three full days in Paris, two full days in Barcelona, and a cross-border travel day that itself becomes a lesson in how quickly language, food, and street life shift when you cross the Pyrenees.

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

This was an outstanding tour experience from start to finish. The trip flowed extremely well, with strong attention to detail at every stage. Even when minor issues arose, they were addressed quickly and professionally, which reinforced confidence in the Passports team. I am very much looking forward to my next trip with Passports and would confidently recommend them to any educator.
