This was my ninth adult tour with Passports! That tells you how much I trust them. I am overwhelmed with the expertise and knowledge of putting together these amazing trips! As you know, adults can be more demanding than students. On my trips I have a core of 25 repeat travelers and always have a waiting list! ((25-40 travelers in the groups) My most recent trip, Fabulous Scandinavia, was just as the title indicates, fabulous! The itinerary, accommodations, meals, transportation, excursions and our amazing local guide throughout our travel were outstanding! I have no suggestions for improvements because there isn’t a need for any. I highly recommend Passports to all who are interested in an educational and reputable company who listens to the needs and wants of its travelers. Thank you to ALL at Passports with a special shout out to Michael Ford and Dale Davies for all they do to make these trips so personal and memorable. Someone asked me how I plan these trips. I replied “I give Passports a wish list and voilà, my wishes are granted”! 🪄😁😊

Having traveled with my groups using Passports Travel for almost 20 years, I cannot imagine using another company. While I was teaching high school, I led student tours; now as a retiree, I lead adults-only tours to Europe. Passports is consistently responsive to my concerns and the resulting product (tour) is superior. From the very beginning (the planning process), the representatives always listen to my requests and include them in my tours. When I have a question, I will always get a response either from my representative or another person in the office. The hotels we have had during my adults-only tours have been nothing short of spectacular! From a gorgeous Vienna hotel that Mozart lived in to an amazing centrally-located stunner in Prague to my most recent hotel in Athens complete with a pool and enormous breakfast spread! Passports has been hitting homeruns with my adult travelers! I do not always include meals (dinners) in my adult tours since adults like to do their own thing at times. When meals are included, they have been delicious--all dishes are representative of the country being visited. The food has been excellent over the years! The activities on tour are always interesting and culturally immersive. Our tour guides are locals with knowledge beyond compare! I will continue to offer adult tours for as long as my energy level will allow it! I plan to continue traveling with Passports as well!

We were well taken care of from the planning stage to our return home. Our trip coordinator was always helpful and promptly returned emails. Our tour director tried to give us meaningful experiences including several cool-off dips in the water during the unprecedented heatwave. Our hotels were top quality, comfortable, and breakfast was always well-rounded and plentiful. I've traveled with two competitors and can honestly say that Passports gave superior service and quality for our money from start to finish. I highly recommend this company and loved our France/Switzerland tour!

This was my first trip as a Group Leader. Passports was amazing to work with and answered all my many questions. Our Tour Guide Scott took great care of our group. He went out of his way to make it a positive experience for some in our group that had difficulty with walking.

I have traveled with three companies - Passports far exceeds the pack. Customer service is superior. Hotel locations and meals are first rate. I couldn’t offer one suggestion for improvement. Passports is the BEST!

I've traveled internationally with both Passports and EF Tours, and the difference in quality was immediately noticeable. Passports provided a much higher-end experience from start to finish. The hotels were consistently nicer, but the biggest difference was the food. We dined at excellent restaurants throughout the trip, and every meal was outstanding. It made the experience feel much more authentic and enjoyable. Our tour director, Paul, was exceptional. I'm sure there were plenty of challenges happening behind the scenes, but you would never have known it. He handled everything professionally and seamlessly, allowing our group to simply enjoy the experience. If you're comparing student travel companies, I highly recommend Passports. It offers a truly top-tier travel experience, and I wouldn't hesitate to travel with them again.

I have been traveling with Passports since 2016. Everything about this company is excellent, professional and student centered. The best thing about Passports is how they listen and truly care if your student is having a good traveling experience. The staff is quick to respond, extremely knowledgable and always professional. Booking tours is an easy online process with ready help available. The tour guides on the ground are simply outstanding. In my most recent visit with students in June of 2026, our tour guide had to deal with a broken foot(mine) and a lost passport. He did so without missing a beat and without sacrificing the enjoyment of the rest of the group. If you are considering traveling with your students, this is the company to use.

Writing from the standpoint of a teacher and group leader, this is the BEST student travel company anywhere! Having worked with others, I can tell you from first hand experience just how much better they are and why. First, it's a smaller company that's very hands-on. They are responsive to client needs and always seek to improve the quality of service they provide. The tours are well researched and thought out. Unlike other companies, Passports always chooses some of the best hotels that are centrally located. Dinners are served at local restaurants and consist of menu items as opposed to buffet-style meals in hotels. Tours can be customized for small groups that don't require the merging with larger, unrelated groups. Lastly, tour guides are among the very best to be found. Passports isn't always the cheapest, but for only a few hundred dollars more, they are the best! What may be a student's once in a lifetime experience isn't the place to cut corners - consider it an investment. With Passports, you won't regret it.
