Our tour guide was phenomenal! She held a textbook of information in her head, which made the trip that much more enjoyable. The only thing I would have done differently, was to spend more time at the Academia, and to have been able to make our own our food selections.
ACIS provided a great educational experience and we had a GREAT time in Costa Rica. Our bus driver and tour guide were awesome. They were extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. It was a trip of a lifetime!!
We recently traveled to Spain, France, and Italy with a group of 23 students and 4 adults! We had an amazing experience and although there were some bumps along the way, ACIS and all its constituents handled everything flawlessly as we were able to continue our adventures! I definitely recommend ACIS to any school group that is planning to travel abroad. We have traveled with ACIS for 6 years now and I wouldn't dream of running a school trip without them on my side! I highly, highly recommend ACIS!

ACIS was there for us from the beginning of the process till the end. I appreciated Tricia Holda calling me the day before we were leaving to wish me the best, to reassure me and to let me know if there were any problems
she wanted me to call immediately so they could fix anything right there and then. The trip was fantastic! Lodging, food and service were the best! And our guide Maynor was very helpful and knowledgeable! He took us on his own to a banana plantation and to a banana factory ,to his town's market....This was not included in the tour but Maynor is that kind of a good person and guide!
I typically avoid writing reviews but this is one time I just couldn't pass up. ACIS stayed on top of every step of our process and ensured we were well cared for. Our tour guides knew the cities like the back of their hands and answered every question our group had with additional commentary that sparked awesome discussions within our group. We never really felt like tourists, they made us feel at home and welcomed everywhere we went!
Began our tour of Spain in Malaga with an ACIS Global Conference then continued for another week on our own. The Global Conference was the perfect launch to our trip extension as it gave us more incite into the culture and history of Spain, and the confidence to continue on our own.
Our Italian trip provided both an exciting educational experience and a great deal of fun and friendship. Our tour guide Marius and our teacher Whitney Baun made sure that we were well-informed and engaged throughout our time in Italy. We would travel with both of them again and with ACIS!
Fun, organized, and worked well when we were delayed
Great trip in Madrid and Barcelona, we were delayed by around 2 days and we didn't mind at all because we got it all back in return if not better, I don't have the time to describe it all but it was great.
Several members of our group became ill. We had schedule sightseeing to be done that day. The agency was able to work their magic and reschedule activities so the kids were able to attend shows. Everyone was wonderful. No complaints!
The choices of airline, hotels and land transportation were wonderful.
Our trip guide without a doubt was over the top great! His knowledge of Italian culture, customs and the cities we visited were spot on. Richard is A1 in my book. Recommend him anytime. We definitely would go again.
Had such a great time! I was very impressed how organized this trip was. From the minute we stepped off the plane our tour guide & bus was just steps away. From there we went straight to our hotel with no problems and began to enjoy the beautiful city of Nice and the magnificent views of the Mediterranean sea. Amazed by how much we were able to see and do within the 9-day duration of our trip. Highly recommend if you have the opportunity.
ACIS has once again provided my students and me with an amazing experience. All the activities, restaurants, hotels and guides are absolutely fabulous. I continue to look forward to future trips!
Our trip to Greece & Italy was a trip of a lifetime and completely enjoyed the itinerary and accommodations. However, the best part of the trip was our tour manager, Anna! She was so knowledgeable and made the trip very enjoyable. She truly gave us a complete experience from educating us on the history, etc., as well as insider information to help us to better understand the cultures and people so much better. This trip will forever be one of my favorites, and I enjoyed making so many wonderful memories with my daughter.
The tour of Italy exceeded expectations. It was well planned and organized and included treasures one would not have tapped into on their own. Colin was the best guide and made everything so fun and interesting!
