Testimonials

“What an incredible and memorable trip to France! It was stress-free, extremely well organized, and our tour was led by a fantastic guide. Each day was full of adventure, allowing us to visit many sights and learn facts about France that you wouldn’t find in a textbook, while allowing for bits of time to explore on our own. All accommodations, from the hotels to the restaurants to the buses, were excellent. Not only was the guide tremendously informative, but they also kept the boys active and entertained including involvement in various activities and games that are popular among the French people. Observing the maturity of my son and his peers throughout the trip as they independently experienced the French culture is unforgettable. It is unquestionably worth the cost and provided me with the experience of a lifetime.” –Jaime Dalida, France 2024

“When I reflect on the trip we took, I can’t imagine a better experience. From the time we met at the airport to the time we returned, I felt nurtured and pampered. The tour was well organized and our guide was wonderful. Watching our son with his peers experience the richness of French culture while being independent helped us, as parents, see our son as a maturing adult. Hearing the group say the “Lord’s Prayer”, in French, for Easter Mass is a cherished memory. I loved hearing the boys converse with the locals. Watching the growth that all of the young men experienced has made it easier to let go when sending our son to college. It was definitely worth the cost and we would do it again in a heartbeat.”  –Elizabeth Dardis, France 2018 and France 2024
(Note:  Mr. and Mrs. Dardis did do it again, a different itinerary, in 2024, after their son graduated!)

“If you are thinking, perhaps you just can’t afford it, maybe you need to tell yourself “I can’t afford not to go”!  Witnessing your son’s relationship with other classmates, friends, teachers, and the French people and the memories created cannot be understated. It’s important and one neither the parents nor their son will ever forget.  The accommodations, meals, planning, events, and transportation all excellent and planned out for you and attention to details well thought out.  The tour guide we had was excellent, very knowledgeable, and explained the customs, history, and what to expect prior to and on the way to each destination.”  –Mark St. Germain, France 2018

“The trip to France with my son in his sophomore year at Jesuit High School was one of the most incredible trips!  The itinerary kept us busy and was designed such that we were able to see many wonderful and amazing sights from historic landmarks, sculptures to monuments and museums. It was so well planned it was truly stress free and fun.  Leslie did a great job planning our itinerary and we had a wonderful and knowledgeable tour guide who made the trip educational and entertaining. The kids learned about art, architecture, history, cuisine and more!  It was an authentic and unique experience.” –Cindy Kaiser, France 2018
