EXCELLENT Based on 22 reviews Posted on New Beacon SchoolTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have used, and will continue to use, Select for several trips. Excellent service throughout the whole process.Posted on ElizabethTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely amazing company, such helpful customer service. My son recently went to Normandy with his school. He had the most fantastic time and said everyone was very kind and helpful. On returning home, he realised he'd left a souvenir in his room. I contacted the company, and a wonderful lady called Ella and her colleague located the souvenir, and arranged for it to be returned to him. This was above and beyond what I expected, and was a great end to an already fantastic trip. Many thanks to all involved.Posted on David StandenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have used Select for many years and would heartily recommend them as an excellent provider of trips for schools - wide variety of places on offer and helpful staff who always try to ensure that your needs are met.Posted on David TullyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have just returned from a truly outstanding stay at Château du Baffy with a large school group. The staff at the château went above and beyond to make our experience a positive and enjoyable one - nothing was ever too much trouble. The food was plentiful and the quality was excellent. We cannot wait to return in the future. Our travel advisor Steff and tour co-ordinator Nicole were absolutely incredible throughout the process of booking and planning our trip. They worked so hard to make this trip exactly what we wanted it to be and we are so grateful.Posted on Laurianne BayartTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nous quittons un lieu fantastique avec une équipe formidable. Nous avons été considérés comme des rois aussi bien dans les chambres qu’à table. Merci pour votre accueil. Réussir à accueillir 80 élèves et 10 personnes encadrantes dans d’aussi bonnes conditions montre le sérieux et le professionnalisme de votre équipe. N’hésitez pas, vous serez comblés !Posted on Paul ShouksmithTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A brilliant place to take groups of children. Nice and close to lots of interesting places such as Bayeux and Arromanches.Posted on thierry constantTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Belle expérience de voyage scolaire dans ce château. Les logements de type mobil-homes pour les élèves étaient agréables. Ils avaient un vaste espace pour courir et s'amuser. Château bien situé pour découvrir les lieux historiques emblématiques de la région. Nous pensions cependant avoir un buffet de déjeuner de type anglais car le choix n'était pas très varié. Le personnel était à notre écoute. Nous vous remercions.Posted on Daniel EasthamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently went on our second MFL school trip with Select. This time to Andalucía which was exceptionally well organised and proved to be a fantastic experience for our students. From the accommodation at Spark Language School and the cultural visits to Seville and Cadiz, to the engaging cooking and flamenco lessons all in Spanish, the itinerary struck a perfect balance between education and enjoyment. Select's communication was clear and timely throughout. Overall, it was a memorable trip that greatly enhanced students’ confidence and enthusiasm for Spanish.Posted on K HendryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
