Exceptional Travel Experiences for Students

Kaleidoscope Adventures takes a personal interest in each and every trip and their staff works tirelessly to make sure it’s a great experience for my students. They go above and beyond with even the smallest details. We have loved every trip we’ve taken with KA and can’t wait until the next one!

Words can not express how well organized our trip to our Nation’s Capitol went. Everyone had a fantastic experience! This is the fifth time I’ve taken my group and couldn’t be happier with everyone involved in the process of making sure every detail was taken care of. Highly recommend to anyone that is looking for a company that cares for their clients!

The Langley High School Choirs had an absolutely amazing time during our trip to England and Ireland. This was in large part due to Kaleidoscope and their attention to detail in helping create a wonderful experience for my students. They were very open to my ideas in crafting an itinerary and created multiple once-in-a-lifetime opportunities by scheduling workshops with world renowned clinicians like Ralph Allwood and reserving performing venues such as Windmill Lane Studios and Canterbury Cathedral. Our tour managers, Keith Kelly and Gabrielle Ried, were extraordinary and went above and beyond to ensure everything on our tour ran smoothly. My parent chaperones and principal (who attended the trip) were constantly complimenting how organized the tour was and how there was a good balance between fun, fast-paced activities and more relaxed free time. Having Keith, Gabrielle, and Kaleidoscope help with the tour was the best decision I could have made when traveling with my students, and I look forward to working with them in the future!

We had a wonderful trip. Katie was a fantastic guide and so helpful throughout our time in Orlando. All of the Kaleidoscope team did an amazing job helping us throughout the planning process and made it so much easier. I cannot say enough good about Lisa B, and Lisa S. Just wonderful at their jobs. I haven’t talked to anyone at Kaleidoscope who was anything less than helpful and polite. I will always recommend them for help in trip planning and coordination. Our meals were wonderful. Checking in and out was so easy at our hotel. Transportation was clean, comfortable and always on time and accommodating to any changes we needed. #1 travel company by far.

We just traveled to Orlando to compete in the OrlandoFest music competitions. Kaleidoscope Adventures worked with me to get everything perfectly set up. Travel, hotel, food, exploration, and every detail needed to keep our trip moving along perfectly. They were even agreeable when I wanted to change things around on the fly! They made the phone calls, and we kept everything moving along without as much as a bump in the road. I’ve been using KA as my trip planner since the early 2000’s. Before that, I was doing all the planning myself. Thank you Kaleidoscope Adventures for taking away all my worries, so I can just get the kids, chaperones and myself on the bus with no worries. If you are looking for a great travel company to do all the planning, and you can just go and enjoy being with your kids and chaperones- you have found it: Kaleidoscope Adventures.

Our trip was absolutely fantastic! James, our tour guide, was lovely at helping us keep on time and filled in our itinerary with some bonus activities that were not originally included on our itinerary. The lanyards and luggage tags came in handy so that students could keep track of their subway cards, etc. Seeing Wicked and the New York Philharmonic with Hilary Hahn and Gustavo Dudamel were true highlights of the trip! Our hotel was in a great location and was clean and comfortable. I cannot thank James enough for all he did to help us have a great trip!

Our trip to Williamsburg was one of the smoothest we have had in my twelve years of teaching! Buses were clean and on time, attractions were scheduled with the right amount of time at each stop, and the trip flowed seamlessly from beginning to end! Thank you, KA, for helping plan another great trip – let’s make them all like this in the future 😉

This was a fantastic opportunity for the students to experience a broad range of live music and music history. Kaleidoscope and our tour guide Burton were receptive to our needs and adjusted accordingly. Their assistance helped us to simply enjoy the trip. In almost twenty years of traveling with student groups, I have never had so many students tell me how great their experience was. With the exception of our travel day back home, each day somehow managed to surpass the previous one in excitement. Looking forward to getting started on our 2025 trip!

Kaleidoscope planned an awesome trip once again! Every activity on the list was a hit. I greatly appreciate their willingness to keep costs low for my students and their families. Kory was – as we anticipated – an absolutely fantastic tour director, we loved traveling with him for a second time! Thank you for all you do!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Washington DC, and I can’t say enough about our outstanding tour guide, Katie May. From the moment our tour began, it was clear that we were in for a treat. Katie’s knowledge of DC is awe-inspiring. She effortlessly wove together historical facts, political insights, and personal stories that brought the city to life. Whether we were standing before the Korean Memorial or exploring the halls of the Capitol, Katie’s commentary added depth and context to everything we saw. What really set Katie apart was her enthusiasm. Her passion for the city was infectious, and she managed to keep our entire group engaged throughout the tour. She had a knack for making even the most complex historical events accessible and interesting. Katie was also incredibly accommodating. She paced the tour perfectly, ensuring that everyone in the group could keep up while still covering all the major sites. She was patient with questions and always ready with thoughtful, informative answers. Her text pictures set us up for success. Perhaps most importantly, Katie created an atmosphere that was both educational and fun. Her sense of humor and friendly demeanor made the tour feel less like a history lesson and more like an exciting adventure through the nation’s capital. If you’re planning a trip to Washington DC, I can’t recommend Katie highly enough. She turned what could have been a standard sightseeing trip into an unforgettable experience. Thanks to her expertise and enthusiasm, I left DC with a deeper appreciation for the city and its place in American history. In short, Katie May is the kind of tour guide that every visitor to Washington DC deserves. Book a tour with her, and you won’t be disappointed!

Great trip! Cameron set us up for success from the first step. He balanced detailed planning with empathetic flexibility, leading to a great experience for all. He did a great job with the overall planning, but the small things he did to make the trip good, like storing a suitcase in his car while we were at the parks all day so that a chaperone who was leaving early could get to it and to their flight on time, showed his dedication to customer satisfaction.

My students had a wonderful time on the trip. Because KA does all the work in advance, I’m able to enjoy the trip too! It’s always so fun to spend time outside of the classroom with my students which offers the chance to get to know them better. They also get the opportunity to build stronger friendships with each other, which keeps them involved in our group. Many wonderful lifetime memories were made by all.

Kaleidoscope Adventures makes traveling with your school group as easy and enjoyable as possible! I have worked with them for many years now and they are outstanding.

Kaleidoscope Adventures is a company that I’ve collaborated with for years and I feel in my heart that education and safety are right at the top of their priority list. They tailor a trip to the specific needs and requests of the group and are patient with all of the requests of the teacher in charge. In short, they are the best!

When you get tired of working your fingers to the bone getting your trip together, give in and use the staff at Kaleidoscope Adventures. I have never been less stressed when taking a trip with middle school kids. They are top notch and are extremely thorough. I will never use anyone else.

I have been working with Joseph and the team for 10 years in 2 schools after having worked with 2 other tour companies. The professionalism and attention to detail are unmatched. They are always a phone call away from solving any problem and their experience offers fresh and new approaches to established group travel traditions. I once again thank you for yet another successful tour allowing me to focus on the students and not the logistics.
