"To heighten our experience at the Normandy beaches in France, our tour manager, Sarah Perry, suggested we visit the German cemetery as well. My students had the opportunity to talk with many Veterans who landed on D-Day, and they also spoke with young German military who were respectfully visiting. Talk about an education! I climbed on the bus at the end of our visit and heard silence as the reality of what transpired that day began to set in. My students grew up that day."

"One of my group leaders asked if I could seek and find the actor who played a role in her classroom's French instructional DVD. I was able to track him down and to the delight of the group leader and her students, he met us in Montmartre for an afternoon."

"Seeing a piece of art for the first time can be such an eye-opening experience. In Italy, I like to engage my groups by asking them to fill in a speech bubble to guess what the statue of David was thinking before they see the masterpiece in person, and then compare it to their thoughts after visiting the Accademia. It's always fascinating to see how their perspectives change."

"I wanted to design a trip to Japan that would help my students understand what it's like to be a teenager in Japanese culture. My tour consultant, Katie, understood what I was after immediately and worked with me to design a trip that included both historical sights and a visit to the Sega Game Center arcade, tickets to see the Yomiuri Giants baseball team play at the Tokyo Dome and a Japanese movie night in Kyoto. It was a perfect blend of old and new."

"Once I had a group leader come down with a cold just upon arrival in Spain. She was clearly feeling less than her best, but I could see she wanted to rally for her group the next day. I worked with the hotel's kitchen staff to arrange breakfast in bed for her, which helped to get her back on her feet. A caring gesture can often be the best medicine!"

"Stan's knowledge of British theater during our last trip to London was unforgettable. We saw two amazing shows and Stan even managed to get us backstage one night. We loved Stan so much that we requested him as our tour manager for our next trip, but he's directing a play in his hometown during our tour dates. Instead, ACIS has arranged for us to see a dress rehearsal of his play. I feel we've made a real connection to a true talent and to the British theater scene."
