School Trip Reviews

What makes our job especially rewarding is hearing what a great time our groups have had on tour, so we always get in touch when you return from your travels to get your feedback. Not only do we want to hear what went well, we also want to know if you think there might be any areas were we can improve the experience.  These are just sample of some of the reviews we have had in recent years.

Organised a super itinerary and were responsive to all requests we made. Made the planning of the trip seamless. Over the course of two trips we have done to Iceland with Kipling Tours we have well over 100 very happy pupils and sets of parents. Thank you!

We had a wonderful trip to Rome and the Bay of Naples with Kipling Tours. The organisation and planning were immaculate, with everything running smoothly at all times. Kipling created the perfect itinerary for us and many of our students commented that this was the best school trip they had ever been on.

As a first time booking with Kipling Tours I was mightily impressed with their organisation and nothing was too big a deal. When advice was sought or suggestions given, Kipling went out of their way to accommodate. Having single rooms for the teachers was a first and made the trip more pleasant for staff.

From initial contact to reviewing the success of the trip the people at Kipling Tours are incredibly thorough, professional and caring. They immediately responded to any concerns and are determined to tailor each individual trip to whatever idiosyncracies you have as a group. Throughout the trip I felt secure in the knowledge that if anything were to go wrong Kipling Tours were but a phone call away and any problems would be immediately remedied. They are fantastic people to deal with. Extremely friendly, knowledgeable and patient. Having travelled with Kipling Tours I now wouldn't want to travel with anyone else.

The whole trip experience was very smooth and stress free and a lot of that was down to the way in which you organised things for us. Our guide was excellent and all the places that we went to eat were great too.

Kipling did a marvellous job organising our memorable music tour to Venice. Our students performed in many stunning churches and were treated to some excellent Venetian cuisine. They all commented on how it was the best school trip ever. Most importantly the parents were incredibly impressed by the experience the students had and how well the trip was organised.  As many of the parents travelled to Venice at the same time they saw the excellence at first hand

Kipling Tours arranged an exceptional trip for our Sixth Form business and economic students to Frankfurt during the October half term. The itinerary was perfectly suited to the academic requirements of the students whilst also giving those on the trip an interesting cultural experience. The support that Kipling Tours gave us during the organisation process was faultless, as was the flexibility and understanding offered in addressing our requirements and those of our students and parents. I would certainly use Kipling Tours for future trips.

I am so happy that I planned our trip with Kipling Tours. Everyone who I worked with in their team has been exceptionally friendly, helpful and professional throughout the trip booking and planning process. Furthermore our trip was a resounding success - all aspects ran smoothly and it made our experience so meaningful. I can't thank them enough. I will most certainly be booking with them the next time we run this trip.
