Planning a Spring Trip

Posted by hey on 9/22/2025, 1:45 pm

Looking at going on a spring trip and this is my first time planning one. I want to go through a travel company.

How do I figure out the cost per student when I don’t know how many students will actually attend??

Troubadour Consultants.
John and Amber Mize are the best. I've done multiple trips with them since 2011. Never had any issues and always had great trips with kids.

The travel company will tell you what it is per person. Give them your best guesstimate of numbers. It doesn't have to be exact.

Several good companies to help you with this. I use Unique Travels and have used Kaleidoscope Adventures in the past as well. Contact someone at a company you might be interested in using and they can help give you the best answers. They are the pros!

You need to have a "minimum number" cost. If you need to have say 45 kids go to have a viable ensemble, take the total amount of all hotel/travel/meals/entries and divide by 45.
