Updated review The first couple of days were amazing. Traveling though Paris, having fun with friends, and leaning about a new culture. Unfortunately as the days went on everyone started getting tired and grumpy, including our tour guide. On our last day in Paris, our guide got mad at me for interrupting his information (a simple mistake as he asked us to let him know when to move forward) His response was extremely sharp and left me feeling embarrassed in front of the group, not for the first time. Although I too was growing more and more frustrated, I chose to stay quiet. Throughout the next few days he grew more irritated with our group until we dreaded our time together. Admittedly we're high school girls, experiencing a new culture and have made mistakes. Sometimes we were too loud at the restaurants he took us to, and he would easily correct us or one of the chaperones would. However, on one of the last nights his response was beyond correcting and tipped over into impatient, disrespectful and aggressive (in tone). He not only said we were too loud but singled out individuals as “embarrassing”. The next day he did come back and apologize, but obviously the escalation of his tone though-out the trip has made it hard to enjoy. I appreciate the trip and am very thankful that I get to spend this time in France, but there was so much pressure to be the perfect tourist, that it ruined the trip.

ACIS is the best company for student… ACIS is the best company for student travel. Their customer service is amazing. But the most important thing is safety. I always feel safe by the hotel, tours, and resturants they choose. They will also work with you to add extra attractions. Their tour guides are amazing and share a wealth of information that is fun and exciting for all. The hotels are always clean and located to near attractions. Transportation is also safe and clean. The costs for a trip is reasonable compared to what you will receive. I have used ACIS for over a decade and they are amazing.

ACIS A+ Experience This is my second time traveling with an ACIS tour group and I can't imagine trying to book all the venues and arranging travel to so many experiences on my own. For people wanting to maximize their experience abroad, I highly recommend the investment in touring abroad with an ACIS guide. There is no way I could have managed this on my own so seamlessly. Worth every penny.

Terrible Experience in Paris We went to Paris with my son's class. We had three tour guides, didn't follow the agenda, and didn't even get to see sites such as The Louvre. I've tried contacting ACIS numerous times over the last month about my experience and received zero response.

ACIS does all the work... ACIS does all the work. All you have to do is get students excited for a trip (super easy) and convince parents to spend money on their child's education (also pretty easy). And ACIS will even help you do all of that. They tell you exactly what to do and when to do it. Follow their instructions and you'll change the lives of your students.
