My daughter had an amazing time on her 8th grade East Coast trip with Lowell Middle School! The tour was fun, educational and very well organized. The staff communicated clearly and always put the kids’ safety first. Highly recommend!

This trip was so much fun for my 8th grade daughter. She was able to see so much history and have hands on learning. I would recommend this trip.

My son had an all around amazing experience. The trip was so well done and organized. Additionally the communication was exceptional, I typically received email responses to all questions within hours. I am so grateful my son experienced this trip!

My son had a fantastic time with his 8th grade class to D.C. I liked the way this trip was organized keeping the safety of students their utmost priority. I really appreciated the payment plan, able to fundraise and pay in increments. I liked how they kept us updated with emails, meetings and reminders. They were able to change plans at rhe last minute to make sure the students make the most of their trip. We were very disappointed they didn't go to Arlington cemetery and the Tomb of the Unknown, but DC was very busy and they wanted to keep kids safe, which i appreciate. Looking forward to my daughter going next year. Thanks for all you did for the kids and parents!!

Friends, you absolutely must find a way to do a trip with American History Tours. Glenn put together an incredible five day trip on the East Coast for our group. The students’ understanding of our history has broadened and deepened. It’s no longer just book knowledge, now it’s experienced knowledge. It’s real to them in a way that it wasn’t before. Glenn crafted an absolutely ideal experience for our group. There was no political bias and no hidden agenda.
His excellence in his craft and thorough planning was abundantly apparent. He took into consideration what would work well for our group and the various ages attending. We were homeschooling families spreading in ages from seven to sixty. Lots of different attention spans and still Glenn masterfully wove together an amazing trip.
This is more than a review, it is a recommendation and referral. You will be thrilled you took the opportunity to do some memory making!

Recently we traveled with Glen on a whirlwind tour of various historical sites out east. It was all fabulously organized with all the details covered. I felt 100% comfortable with our bus driver. How stress free to not have to drive in some of these highly congested cities. Everything we wanted was included. So, one warning to the wise, plan at least one night midweek to arrive back to the hotel early. You'll be glad for the extra rest

Glen did an amazing job directing our group while we traveled. He has an upbeat atritude and listened to any concerns that we had. The trip itself was so interesting... my 8, 15, and 17 year old kids never had a complaint. If we travel again, we will be giving Glen a call!
