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 Vista Campana Middle School
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."
-- Mrs. Ann Lynch
Palos Verdes Intermediate School
"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
