Do NOT think of this as a school field trip, think of it as a vacation that wealthy families take.

If you have the money, and your kid has the wherewithal to stick with the group and go with the flow for the duration of the trip, it will be the best experience of their life.


Nope, these trips are $5-8K for a week to 10 days.


That’s not true. My kid a 10-day trip in Europe and it was $4k. Nowhere near $8k, which would be double what we paid.


When was this as ours are a minimum of $5K for a week. Our band trip was $1200 for a close by trip with 4 kids to a room and a bus.

I went on one of these and still remember it 20 years later. Experiencing a new country at that age with classmates is priceless. Highly recommended.
