We were beyond impressed with our tour guide, Dan, and our coach driver, Richard. The students bonded with both members of the tour team. It really was incredible to see. Also, I am beyond thankful for the flexibility in the payment schedule as fundraising often has to run until the very last minute, right before the departure. The planning is clear, well-conceived, detailed, and justified. Every effort is made to accommodate last minute changes and this is vital in the current climate of educational/music tours.

The tour company was amazing. They were always available for questions or concerns before, during and after the trip. We must give a major thanks to our fabulous tour guide, Joe Cormier!!!! All of us, staff, parents and students, LOVED him! He was knowledgeable, well-spoken, supportive, and always available for support!!! We can’t say enough about him and hope that he continues with Schools Out Tours for music trips! We would definitely book again with Schools Out Tours for this and any other trips that we may take in the future!! Thanks!!

Just wanted to send an e-mail and say we all had a great (as usual) SOT Tour!! Our Tour Guide, and bus driver were both wonderful too. Nice to have two such people to accompany us around Halifax and to all our events and activities. Thanks for all your work and service on behalf of my Music students. Hoping to make the Atlantic Festival of Music next year!

What an absolutely fantastic time my students and I had on our trip to PEI. Because of our itinerary students were busy (and happy!) from the time they woke up to the time they went to bed. One student even said to me, “I knew it would be fun, but I didn’t think it would be THIS fun! All my chaperones agreed that they had never been on a more stress free and relaxing trip. Thank you to everyone for such a well planned, educational, and fun itinerary. Looking forward to planning our next adventure through Schools Out Tours.

Schools Out Tours provides our school with quality tour planning each year. What I love most about them is that at the helm are two retired music teachers who know what music teachers are looking for on performance trips. They understand the needs of performance groups and the staff is most pleasant to work with in planning trips. They are flexible and reliable.

I have had Schools Out Tours plan our band trips for many years. The staff are eager to provide a hassle free experience for students and band directors. Ron, Mike and Sue were always available to take my calls. Any little issues that came up on the trips were dealt with immediately and to my satisfaction. The itinerary was well planned and accommodations, meals and events were of the highest quality. Having used several other tour companies in the past, I can honestly say that the folks at Schools Out have always provided the best service right from the initial conversations through to the conclusion of our tours.

Schools Out Tours has offered well organized, educational and enriching tours for our students. When you plan your trip with them you are planning with real people, not just a company. We have had two successful trips with Schools Out Tours and we will be looking forward to planning our next one.

Schools Out Tours has provided me with an easy and flexible option for planning our music trips. What could be a time-consuming and onerous undertaking is transformed into a positive experience with Schools Out Tours.

I will be planning all future trips with Schools Out Tours! I highly recommend any musical groups to contact Sue and Ron. Our trip was perfect. Honestly – couldn’t have gone better. We all had a blast and the musical aspects were perfect. Thanks for your hard work and care in planning all aspects of our trip.

It was a wonderful trip! The pacing was perfect, and we stayed on schedule for the entire trip. We were driving in the school yard at 10:56 last night! The kids loved Michael (SOT Tour Co-ordinator), and I was so relieved to have someone along with us the entire way to look after any issues that came up. He is so very competent! And stays calm (at least outwardly, which is what counts) in the face of anything we could throw at him. Thanks again! The kids will remember this forever!
