I love traveling with Dream Travel! It is truly a one-of-a-kind experience. I love the flexibility and how the hotels are so close to all the action! I feel like we really got to experience life in France, instead of just doing the usual touristy stuff. From hiking in the mountains to eating at the foot of the Eiffel Tower to relaxing in the Jardin de Luxembourg, it was amazing. Thank you!

Hear It From a Teacher Who Hosted
“Bishop O’Connell High School is extremely proud to offer a French, German and a Spanish Exchange program to our wonderful students for many years. This is an invaluable experiential learning opportunity, one which fosters intercultural awareness, interpersonal relationships, communication in the target language and the exploration of a new country and its peoples.These exchanges present occasions to foster friendships, to practice the language to increase fluency, to celebrate creativity and collaboration, and to set rigorous expectations for modeling student leadership qualities. This is an experience that helps students grow as individuals and sets them on the path to becoming global citizens. They also increase their language skills exponentially and gain newfound knowledge that becomes an integral part of their high school experience.
René Piard and Dream Travel have helped facilitate these exchange programs for years and have helped make traveling with students, frankly, a dream. Their dedication to experiential learning through travel is apparent in all aspects of their travel business. René and everyone at Dream Travel are kind, thoughtful, professional, highly knowledgeable, prompt and organized. They make airline travel and the flying process a breeze for the teachers, parents, and students. René is always available and patient with our questions and changes and as a parent himself, knows how important safe and organized travel is for families. He creates individualized websites for each trip, and families are quickly able to see all aspects of the ticket purchase as well as insurance for the flights. We are so grateful for the extraordinary service and professionalism with which they approach our airline ticket purchases and travel arrangements for students while in the United States. He has helped us organize trips to Philadelphia and into Washington, D.C. as well as helping us to travel safely abroad. We are truly happy that we found Dream Travel and are grateful for all they have done for our exchange programs.”

My children had such a fun time! They enjoyed the families they stayed with. The beautiful culture and wonderful food. I felt comfortable with them being away from home. Highly recommend!
Well organized. Went off EXACTLY as planned. Great communication with the family for the 2 week period abroad. Loved all the pictures. Only compliments. No complaints!
My daughter had the trip of a lifetime to Dublin. She loved the city, the people, the food, and the culture. She already wants to go back!
