My student’s group missed roughly 14 items from the itinerary. Not sure if WorldStrides helps create and manage the itineraries while on the trip or if it is the school staff, but it would seem for as much as we paid that missing this many areas wouldn’t be normal. Our student mentioned the bus driver was partially the cause for missing out and/or being late. Other groups made majority if not all of their itinerary areas. It would also be helpful to better understand the cost breakdown of the trip - especially WorldStrides breaking down cost-payment for museums, bus, driver, logistics, etc Positive experience with the communication from worldstrides heading into the event with useful information on what to pack and helpful tips.

It is a very expensive trip for only a few days.

My son had a great time on the trip, but due to bus driver issues he missed quite a few (11) attractions including the air and space museum which was the number 1 place on the itinerary my son wanted to see. Also had the worst flights both directions. Don't really feel like we got our money's worth on this one, and likely will not do it again for our younger child.

The remote was broken the whole time and I couldn’t watch power rangers at all.

I learned so much about the capital and our country, I had so much fun, and I got to be independent over Fall Break!

Thank you WorldStrides for making our trip so easy from the planning stages to our final destination. Everybody that I worked with along the way was friendly, helpful, and efficient. I would highly recommend this company to any teachers looking to plan a trip with their students.

Our tour guide made our experience great! She took us all around the city and we had an opportunity to experience Paris on foot, by train, and bus! She was very knowledgable and set us up with good colleagues who filled in any gaps she missed. The schedule of the trip was manageable. We saw all of gems Paris had to offer.

Our itinerary was packed with fascinating history and memorable sites, and we were able to see so much in a short time. However, the guides seemed unprepared for a group of 60 teenagers. From the moment they boarded, there was a noticeable negativity, which affected the experience. Engaging teenagers can be challenging, but with a more interactive approach, like asking questions, creating fun games, or involving them in the learning process, the trip would have been far more enjoyable for everyone. Additionally, I would have appreciated more healthy dining options, as well as more time to enjoy each meal. With only about 30 minutes allotted, it felt rushed, leaving little time to fully appreciate the experience. Overall, the pace was quite fast, making it difficult to savor each individual site. With more training for guides on youth engagement, a more interactive approach, and a less hurried schedule, this could be an unforgettable trip for all ages.

The people at World Strides made the trip great. Of course Washington DC is an amazing city, but from my trip advisor, Alice, to Robert, the Tour Guide, to Pat at the hotel I couldn't have asked for better. Any question I had was answered. They were all helpful. This was my first time as a trip leader and everyone at World strides I worked with was great.

I really loved all of the history we got to learn about, and our tour guide, Robert, was the best! It was really fun to go on this trip with other kids from my school and get to explore history. It was fun to make memories with my classmates and friends.

Regarding the trip to Boston, Massachusetts, from October 22 to October 25, 2024, for STEM School Highlands Ranch, I enjoyed our activities and the order that they were in. The only problem was that there weren't many foods for me to eat during breakfast due to my dietary restrictions (vegan). There were some bananas, but other than that, there wasn't anything else. I understand this could be the hotel's fault and not World Strides', and I considered that, but there should've been more options for students like myself. Besides that, everything was fine. Thank you very much for this experience!
