We had a wonderful experience with our tour guide Eduardo. He’s was filled with knowledge and charisma. If I had negative things that need improvement I would impress upon leaders of school groups that being on time to bus is very important. Our faith lutheran group was paired up with a group from Texas that was NOT timely and as a result we had to change our itinerary multiple times to accommodate their tardiness. Also they brought and elderly grandma that had disabilities and needed assistance with a cane and required multiple last minute accommodations thru out our trip. These two concerns upset all of us as we honored timeframes and didn’t appreciate the rate limiting step of an elderly lady that could t keep up with tours scheduled. This falls on the leaders of their group. They should have known better. I think it’s important to remember these trips aren’t vacations as much as they are student driven experiences. So individual desires like getting tattoos or leaving group early to go back to hotel on any given day takes away from general group experience. And makes more work for our tour leader.! I doubt Faith will ever agree to being tethered to another school without clear vetting. Parents that attend should be reminded it’s not just a vacation for them. They are part of group .
