College Tours Successful Trip!

Just wanted to let everyone know how great it was to work with Four Winds Tours and especially Rishi Kumar. We took 40 high school seniors to Boston, MA on a college tour trip in March 2023. We went to see Northeastern University; Boston University and Harvard.

The tours were very informative and everything was planned perfectly. Our driver was exceptional and tuned into the students with what they would like as far as music and sights. His name was Fun, and he definitely was. He was so accommodating and friendly, that it was like he was on the trip with us, not just our driver. The hotel, food and anything else we requested was right on point.

We had no problems at all. We are going again in October to different colleges and will be using Four Winds once again.

Big Island - Hawaii: Lycée Français de San Francisco

Our trip was filled with exciting discoveries, incredible adventures and unforgettable moments.

One of the most memorable moments of our trip was our visit to the
our visit to the Hilo Tsunami Museum. This museum presents the history of
history of tsunamis in Hawaii and the efforts made to reduce the risk to the
population. We were amazed by the interactive exhibits, the presentation by the
of the tsunami geologist and the poignant testimonies of survivors.

We kayaked along the coast, swam in the pool, we paddled in the ocean. The students were
incredibly exemplary, showing curiosity, respect, and a positive attitude

This trip was a memorable experience. We all

Disney Trip - Staten Island Technical HS

THANK YOU!

Since we returned from the trip to Disney, I have done nothing but rave about how great it was working with you, your company, vendors, and your entire team. Everything ran so smoothly! It was such a relief knowing that everyone was reliable. Every single company you used was professional, polite, on-time, accountable, and so much more! The bus driver that we had in Florida, Manny, was awesome! He felt like he was a member of the group, and the kids loved how he appreciated working with them. The security company was unbelievable! On-time, courteous, professional, and gave the chaperones piece-of-mind so that we can rest when needed. I'm looking forward to planning next year's trip and would love to request all the same vendors (and Manny as a bus driver!)

Everything was a 10 out of 10!! And most importantly, this allowed the students to have a great time. "This trip gave us so many core memories!" (Highlighting a quote from the Disney movie, Inside Out). This is what we heard from several students as we have seen them over the past few weeks. 

In the end, I want you to also know...this couldn't have been done without you as well. In a job that you may never hear from the ones that matter the most...the students! You made this possible for them, and they will never forget the week they had in Disney.

Senior Class Trip 2022 Hershey Park PA / Point Pleasant Beach NJ

Everything about our senior trip was fantastic. The staff at Four Winds were very helpful in securing a safe, affordable, and fun-filled trip for our seniors. Four Winds communicated any and all aspects during the entirety. From initial trip proposals to our final destination, Fourwinds was supportive, helpful, and informative.  

The driver of our bus was very helpful and the bus itself was immaculate. Four Winds booked our group at a hotel near our Hershey Park visit, which allowed for more time at the park. The hotel staff and security staff we all attentive and made the work less stressful for us chaperones. Our visit to Point Pleasant Beach was superb. Everyone who participated in the senior trip was extremely happy with every aspect of the trip. Our school will definitely book with Four Winds in the future.

I am writing to you on behalf of my Principal, Shirley Miller, and our students.  They would like to express their thanks and gratitude for making their Senior trip, the best ever!  Everyone was thoroughly impressed with the treatment received from you, your company and your bus driver Eric.  We have 2 more trips in June, and Principal Miller ask that Eric accompany us on both trips.  His interaction with our students and staff was outstanding.

Biannual music trip in May of 2020

I am writing to express my sincere thanks for your professionalism, accessibility and willingness
to problem-solve. As you know, we were scheduled to participate in our biannual music trip in
May of 2020. Little did we know that we would be dealing with a pandemic when we began our
planning! There is no question that we have been through challenging and unprecedented
times as a result. But, through it all, I have found Four Winds to be always accessible and hard
working to find a solution that is best for all concerned! It is clear to me that Four Wind’s
emphasis on building relationships with their clients is their highest priority. I saw the value of
this firsthand as we engaged in countless conversations and emails to find the best possible
solution to our cancelled trip. Equally important is the earned trust that I have for Four Winds.
When times are tough you definitely see an organization’s true character. In the case of Four
Winds, I always felt listened to and valued. I never felt as though “games” were being played or
information was being manipulated. As a matter of fact, I felt as though I was your only client;
knowing full well that you had countless clients in the same sea of uncertainty.
In closing, please know that I am thankful that I chose Four Winds Tours & Travel to represent
the Scituate Music Department. I also value the relationship we have fostered and look forward
to partnering with Four Winds Tours & Travel for future trips!

Looking forward to DC and Connecticut.
