Catalog Tour

Paris and Madrid

Paris and Madrid together make a natural pairing — two capital cities that shaped Western European history, art, and politics from opposite ends of the Pyrenees. This eight-day tour moves your group from the grand boulevards and museum halls of Paris to the royal plazas and world-renowned galleries of Madrid, giving students a side-by-side look at how two neighboring cultures built their modern identities in distinctly different ways. The through-line isn't just geography; it's the chance to read Europe's story in two languages, two architectural vocabularies, and two very different urban rhythms.

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.

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.
