The trip was well organised with some excellent excursions planned. All concert venues were suitable, and provided a good setting for our pefromances. The local rep was superb - incredibly helpful and enabled a smooth, worry-free itinerary throughout the four days spent in Prague. Our students had a wonderful time and so did the staff! I would highly recommend Prague as a fabulous tour destination for similar school groups.– Sir John Lawes School
