About Schools Out Tours

Thanks to everyone who looked after all the details for our trip to Halifax. Our clinicians were great, travel wonderful, and security much appreciated. Food excellent, accommodation excellent. Staff was wonderful. It was smooth from beginning to end.

Schools Out Tours knows the business of band touring. They work with the travelling groups and the event contacts on a personal level, are very accommodating/flexible with the itinerary and details. I could not organize a better tour even if I had the countless hours too do the leg work and follows up. A service well worth it!

Schools Out Tours provided Baddeck Academy with a wonderful first time experience to the Atlantic Festival of Music. There was never an issue when changing parts of our trip itinerary and the staff were more than helpful to go the extra step in planning. Our tour guide also went out of her way to help in any way she could and the students really enjoyed having her join us. Our trip was stress free and fun! Thank you Schools Out Tours!

I just wanted to thank you for arranging the fabulous trip to Halifax. The kids loved it and we have heard nothing but positive comments on their experiences.

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.

Traveling with Schools Out Tours made our trip planning easy and remarkably stress-free. Ron and Mike were incredibly easy to work with and anxious to ensure the trip was a great experience for our students.

Our PEI trip with Soundtrax and Halifax All City Jazz was a huge success, thanks to the exceptional planning and organization of Schools Out Tours.

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.

Working with Sandy at Schools Out Tours was a wonderful experience! She was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, accommodating, and organized. She planned a fabulous trip for our Grade 9 class that combined just the right amount of educational activities with fun! We would definitely recommend Schools Out Tours to others!

Schools Out Tours has organized yet another excellent trip for my junior high school band. This allows me to focus on the important stuff.. the music, while I can trust that SOT has planned the “fun stuff”!! We always have a great trip, learn a lot and come back better musicians.
