This is by far the best educational… This is by far the best educational travel company! They are always ready to help you put together the best possible travel experience. While traveling, you are always escorted and have pre arranged entrances so time is not lost on details during your trip. This maximum planning allows even the new teacher to get the best possible travel experience!

ACIS is the clear winner ACIS is the clear winner for school trips. The hotels are located so close to all of the sights, the restaurants have incredible food, and our tour manager (Dimitra Neonakis) was amazing!! The team worked hard to make sure we had the best experience possible!

Terrible Experience in Paris We went to Paris with my son's class. We had three tour guides, didn't follow the agenda, and didn't even get to see sites such as The Louvre. I've tried contacting ACIS numerous times over the last month about my experience and received zero response.

Updated review The first couple of days were amazing. Traveling though Paris, having fun with friends, and leaning about a new culture. Unfortunately as the days went on everyone started getting tired and grumpy, including our tour guide. On our last day in Paris, our guide got mad at me for interrupting his information (a simple mistake as he asked us to let him know when to move forward) His response was extremely sharp and left me feeling embarrassed in front of the group, not for the first time. Although I too was growing more and more frustrated, I chose to stay quiet. Throughout the next few days he grew more irritated with our group until we dreaded our time together. Admittedly we're high school girls, experiencing a new culture and have made mistakes. Sometimes we were too loud at the restaurants he took us to, and he would easily correct us or one of the chaperones would. However, on one of the last nights his response was beyond correcting and tipped over into impatient, disrespectful and aggressive (in tone). He not only said we were too loud but singled out individuals as “embarrassing”. The next day he did come back and apologize, but obviously the escalation of his tone though-out the trip has made it hard to enjoy. I appreciate the trip and am very thankful that I get to spend this time in France, but there was so much pressure to be the perfect tourist, that it ruined the trip.

Athens and the Aegean I have travelled with several companies over the decades; ACIS is by far the best, most reliable company. The itinerary was good; the tour manager in Greece was wonderful: local guides were terrific. The Boston office gave much important and needed info prior to the trip, and responded immediately to questions.
