Great trip, Study experience were very helpful. Small group of 22 sixth formers so no pastoral issues. Would consider coach next time as had to use the hotel shuttles which proved tricky sometimes with trying to get 22 students on for the same run. Activities good, would be more beneficial educationally for KS4 (November 2023 - Secondary School)

Fantastic trip. Booked again! (March 2020 - Primary School)




Well organised and very helpful whilst organising as well. (February 2020 - Secondary School)

Last minute changes made to travel arrangements - poor communication. (February 2020 - Secondary School)

very knowledgable about the Disney parks and providing guidance on places to go. When problems arose, study experiences were very hand on in finding adequate solutions. (November 2019 - Secondary School)




Really smooth and well organised. Activities Appropriate and better than expected (November 2019 - Secondary School)




Very well organised, would reccomend them for future trips. (September 2019 - Secondary School)




(September 2019 - Secondary School)




Study experiences were good in initial communication and very efficient, although closer to the trip were slow to give final itinerary. On the day, the guides were efficient and there on time and communication was good. (August 2019 - Secondary School)




Study Experiences made the booking process much easier as they arranged each booking on my behalf. This saved me time and meant that if something changed, they were responsible for updating it. I was also very impressed by how responsive and prompt replies were by office staff and the study experience manager I was assigned. The downside of using them is that you sacrifice a degree of knowledge and control as they are responsible for the bookings. However, they are very useful for first time trip organisers as they provide an extra level of support. (July 2019)

(April 2019 - Secondary School)




Well organised, the accommodation was good, netball tournaments were good. It would have been better if we could have had some netball in the afternoons so that we could have satyed in Disney for the evening.It is a very long journey if you live out of London. (April 2019 - Secondary School)




(March 2019 - Primary School)




Brilliant service that cover all elements of the trip! (February 2019 - Secondary School)




Excellent service. (February 2019 - Secondary School)




A fantastic trip, which all the students thoroughly enjoyed. The seminars where very informative and the workbooks that where provided where great and suitable for all students. Support wad given throughout the entire booking of the trip, and all queries where answered straight away. Definitely would book again with this company. (February 2019 - Secondary School)




Well organised, friendly and accommodating. We will use them again. (February 2019 - Secondary School)




We used Voyager and generally they were good, however the itenerary missed some important information such as the need for additional student lists for both legs of the journey/incorrect contact numbers for the accomodation/no company representative in Paris. (February 2019 - Secondary School)




Issues in setting up trip, miscommunication of different types. However, liaison with contact was on the whole good and issues, with effort, were generally resolved. (February 2019 - Secondary School)




(February 2019 - Secondary School)




There were a couple of issues with requests for information early in the process but overall Study Experiences provided a good package. (February 2019 - Secondary School)

GOOD COMPANY WELL ORGANISED TENNIS FACILITIES TO PLAY NETBALL ARE NOT AS GOOD AS OTHER FACILITIES (October 2018 - Secondary School)




A value for money trip whereby students were able to experience the theories shared at lectures wrt to theme parks and the science of roller coasters. (October 2018 - Secondary School)




Hotel was too far from London. Tour rep was not very approachable (September 2018 - Secondary School)

Excellent support and communication, tour reps Sue and Peter went over and above to help with all aspects of the trip. Coaches were superb, drivers interacted well with staff and students. (July 2018 - Secondary School)




We had a fantastic tour guide who was very knowledgeable and was willing to listen to our opinions to . The driver of the coach was a little quiet but was excellent with his driving skills and timings . Office staff always sent me information that I required efficiently and was on the ball . (July 2018 - Primary School)




(July 2018 - Secondary School)




Tour guide not always in tune with our age group of children. Some information went over their heads. (June 2018 - Primary School)




Organisation and support from company itself was really good. Rep. needed to know more, such as location for workshop and bus driver needs to consider the ages of those being carried. (June 2018 - Secondary School)

(April 2018 - Secondary School)




Efficient email communications and understanding of school procedures. (April 2018 - Secondary School)




Overall the trip was an enjoyable experience. The staff and students really enjoyed the visits to the park and the netball tournament days. It was great that they all got a trophy and got to play in a final based on skill level. The netball tournament was well run and umpired. The awards evening was good. The cabins that the students stayed in were excellent and they really enjoyed having their own space to be responsible for. Prices for pre-order of packed lunches and dinners were way too expensive. We took our own food which cut costs by 29 euros per person per day. Areas for development The coach driver was reluctant to allow us to watch the fireworks on the last evening and made it difficult for us to do this (although we did do it) he also kept encouraging us to skip things to make his life easier. Having a shared coach with another school did cause complications- sometimes we had to wait for them and this made us late for our first day in the tournament. The coaching session day is way too long and was poorly organised. Lots of teams did not go or left half way through. The duration of 4 hours in the afternoon after a morning at Disney meant students were tired and then getting injured. If I went again I would not do these sessions or do 2 hours only. Some of the coaches had lost enthusiasm and were bored by the afternoon. The awards dinner we were scheduled to attend did not start until 9pm which was very late to wait for dinner. It also meant that we nearly missed the fireworks and had difficulty getting a good enough spot. Other teams had a 6pm dinner and were able to take time to find a good seat for the event. (April 2018 - Secondary School)




Fantastic trip - no problems at all and all students completed tasks set to further their portfolios. Prizes were given out for the best artwork and the funniest comment All student feedback was very positive and are recommending to friends (February 2018 - Secondary School)
