We love that we can tailor the tour to our needs and find new and interesting things to see/do. We also love the price and the great deals you can get us. Thank you again for another great senior trip!
Morgan, 12th Grade Teacher
For many years, our school district has worked with Gerber Tours to plan and take approximately 90 rising 6th graders to Washington, D.C. I highly recommend Gerber Tours.
Gail, 6th Grade Teacher
Gerber Tours is one of the best companies with which I have ever done business! I take my students on an 8th grade trip to Washington DC each year. They are totally dependable and trustworthy and have always delivered on their promises. I have taken our school to the East Coast with Gerber for 42 years and have never been disappointed. I highly recommend Gerber Tours for all you need in group student travel.
