Paris and the Alps

Paris, the Swiss Alps, and Bavaria in ten days — this tour traces a diagonal across western Europe that most student groups never attempt, moving from French café culture and Haussmanian boulevards to the cow-bell quiet of central Switzerland and finally into the beer-hall grandeur of Munich. The through-line is contrast: students who stand beneath the Eiffel Tower on Day 3 will be watching the Alps emerge outside the motorcoach window by Day 5, and finishing the week in a city where the language, the food, and the architecture have shifted again entirely.

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

Passports, I cannot begin to thank you enough for helping craft such a spectacular tour! Being a theatre educator, having some arts experiences was important to me — and you delivered. My students and I were talking about the workshop for days! Josephine and the Mouse Singer at the Greek National Opera House was unlike anything my students or I had experienced before.

The hotels, restaurants, bus driver, and local guides were all truly amazing. The itinerary was phenomenal. Appropriate time frames for every activity. There was a great balance between structured activities and free time. The students had such an enjoyable experience!
