Festivals

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!

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!

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!

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!!

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.

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!

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!

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.

Once again it was an awesome trip and a great experience for our students.

Sue at Schools Out Tours always provides excellent customer care. I know that she will help resolve any issue that should arise on the trip and she is efficient, flexible, and easy to work with during the planning stages. Our most recent trip was very well planned and included a great mix of educational and team-building/social activities. I look forward to working with Schools Out Tours again next year!
