What satisfied teachers
are saying about
Great Adventure Tours...

My first experience with Great Adventure Tours was six years ago.  I am a middle school language arts teacher who wanted to find a way to expose our students to another culture outside of the high desert in southern California .  I am so fortunate to have found a wonderful tour company who values students' education and also knows the importance of allowing them to have fun at the same time!  For the past six years we have taken our 7th graders to San Francisco and Monterey .  This trip is definitely a high point in their lives.  I have had students come back to me years later who still comment on what a great trip they took as a 7th grader.

I am most impressed with the fact that all I have to do is let GAT know our curriculum ideas and they can put together an amazing tour that is both educational and entertaining for our students at an affordable price.

The staff at GAT is another reason I choose to continue with this company.  I cannot say enough wonderful things about the professional and friendly manner in which I am treated both on and off tour.  The tour guides are always so helpful and delightful to work with.  I look forward to each new tour as it is just as much a pleasure for me as it is for my students.

Sincerely,
Katheryn A. Otto

I have been working for GAT for four years now and our school has a history with the company that dates back nearly 10 years! Each experience has been better than the last The response from returning students is overwhelmingly positive! As we start up the school year each year, the students are excited to know when the trip will be so they can save the date.  Some of my students will rarely get 50 miles from their home during their lifetime, so this is a tremendous opportunity to see the rest of the world.  I enjoy showing them the opportunities out there. By staying in contact with the students in high school, they have told me that some of their college choices were influenced by the trip. They were able to find colleges the did not want to go to as well as some that they did.  GAT provides a remarkable experience the students never forget!

A Teacher's Dream!"This year my students are looking forward to another exciting season of Great Adventure travel. Our two trips per school year have been a very rewarding educational experience for my students. Traveling with Great Adventure Tours has been a pleasure.

The exhibits and destinations we visited were ideal for the age and interest of my students. The hotel accommodations and buses were comfortable, clean and exceeded our expectations. Great Adventure Tours offers a fantastic learning experience for students and teachers, great support from office personnel during the planning process and friendly, helpful tour staff while on tour."

"Thanks to Great Adventure Tours for a job well done! The 4th and 5th grade GATE students look forward to our annual trip to San Diego. Parents send their children with confidence that the children will receive excellent supervision and a well planned educational experience."

-- Mrs. Linda Kessler
GATE Teacher, San Marino U.S.D.

"For the past four years Great Adventure Tours has done a great job in planning and setting up our educational programs. Our 8th grade students love their San Francisco/Monterey Discovery tour while the 9th graders think that their San Diego tour is wonderful.

These type of trips are not only important for their educational value, but are important because they develop and enhance a student's social skills and independence. Great Adventure Tours does a fantastic job in creating a program that combines both of these aspects into a complete and educational 'Discovery tour.'"

-- Mr. Harvey Warshaw
Montclair Prep. School

"Great Adventure Tours provides some of the most exciting and educational trips available to teachers and students. It is common knowledge that students learn best with "hands-on activities. Great Adventure Tours' Discovery field trip provides an invaluable experience for students and teachers alike. As a biology teacher I know how important experiential learning is to my students: the Discovery trip gives them exposure to a wealth of experiences that otherwise would be unavailable to them.

It is gratifying to see childlike wonderment and amazement rekindled in my students during these tours. With the current public education trend toward budget tightening and the resultant loss of out-of-classroom opportunities, I am very pleased to be able to offer these Great Adventure trips to my students.

I have been running these trips for over six years now and each year they improve. This past year there was such huge demand for the Discovery tour to San Francisco and Monterey that my trip sold out in three days and, because there were so many other students wanting to go, I had to add a second bus!

The Great Adventure staff does an excellent job of facilitating the trip and takes care of all of the details. They are truly a first-class organization and they provide an experience that will not soon be forgotten."

-- Mr. Drew Lord
Eagle Rock High School

"Six years in a row so far...and our students are eagerly looking forward to a seventh! Whether your students are in life sciences, physical sciences, biology oceanography or physics, there is something on this trip for each one of them."

-- Mr. Gordon Owens
Santiago High School
