EXCELLENT Based on 12 reviews Posted on Katie WatkinsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the initial quote up to the return, Select have provided our students with a memorable experience. The Oude Abdij was fantastic with the communal areas meeting our requirements. The food at all our stop offs was incredible and staff were incredibly flexible with our later arrival times. Pewsey Vale coach drives were absolutely fantastic, accommodating and engaging with our students. Already looking to re-book!Posted on charlotte bloisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have had some fabulous trips to France with Select School Travel and have no hesitation in recommending them. We have always found the staff to be really knowledgeable, efficient and friendly - they happily tailor trips to our requirements and ensure that everything runs smoothly.Posted on Alice O'DriscollTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've organised school trips with Select for many years now and they have always been great! Quick to respond, very knowledgeable and adaptable.Posted on Rebecca CoeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having used numerous travel companies over the years for Classical Tours I can honestly say Select are the best I have worked with. They offer support through the whole booking and planning process and are very supportive whilst on tour when needed. I can honestly say they will support you through the unexpected as Covid 19 hit 3 weeks before my 2020 trip and they supported us through the cancellation and refund process that ensued. Additionally this year we were delayed by 24 hours due to a National Strike in Greece - Select were very supportive through the whole process of ensuring we had accommodation and alternative flights the following day; getting everything arranged quickly to minimise disruption and communicating with us regular to keep us informed. I have recommended Select to a number of colleagues who now use them and they agree that the service they offer through the whole process really is a cut above the rest.Posted on kay nickerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have used Select School Tours now for a number of years for my group of young people aged 14 - 25 with additional needs. Select have always bent over backwards to accommodate me with everything my group have needed. Due to some of the complexities my group have, we have different needs than some groups and Select have always risen to the challenge and sourced exactly what suits us. I would not use anyone else for my trips.Posted on S McCullochTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a lovely visit to Disneyland Paris for our 6th Form Engineering students. Select Schools agreed our programme requirements and helped us to source suitable accommodation, and itinerary that suited our time frame and budget. The whole process was straight forward from start to finish. We would like to thanks Select Schools for helping us to facilitate this visit.Posted on Philippa SangerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have worked with Select School Travel for a number of successful London residential Art and Design Trips for GCSE students. We have taken 40-50 aged 15-16 year students and crammed in an exciting cultural and artistic itinerary (that I personally checked locations in advance) to kick start the January exam paper. These places/events included the V&A, The Natural History Museum, London Zoo, Westfield Shopping Centre, London Eye and The Vaults. We have had our most successful stays at the YHA hostels. The bus drivers shared contact details and supported the trip well and I have always managed to speak to a personable member of Select School Travel when needed before, during and after our trips. I would recommend working with Select School Travel as they will take you itinerary ideas into consideration and booking experiences as large educational groups will guarantee the best price for your students enrichment. I look forward to booking with Select School Travel again. Thank you.
