Open Enrollment Tour

The Cold War

Few chapters of twentieth-century history reshaped the modern world as dramatically as the Cold War, and this ten-day itinerary puts students directly inside the cities where the ideological fault line ran deepest. Berlin alone earns a full three days, enough time to walk the remnants of the Wall, stand at Checkpoint Charlie, and wrestle with what it meant for an entire city to be physically divided for nearly three decades. From there the route moves east through Dresden, across the Czech border into Prague, and finally down to Budapest — a sequence that traces the arc of Soviet-bloc life and the revolutions that unraveled it.

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

“Compared to stories I have heard about other companies, this was an absolutely incredible experience. I have nothing to add to make the experience better as the entire experience, from pre-planning to post-trip, was incredible. I will never use another company and will highly recommend Passports for everyone.”
