Rich in history
May 12, 2025by: Morris Anderson - United StatesProgram: Global Citizen-Focused Learning in FranceThe sights and locations were plentiful and enlightening. The addition of guides to further our knowledge were so very enriching. Our team leader—Stacie—was very alert to our needs. As a 78 year old, she made important, spontaneous decisions for the older crowd.
Parisian memories have been made!!
May 09, 2025by: Chloe Isbell - United StatesProgram: Global Citizen-Focused Learning in FranceI’ve been traveling with this group quite a bit and it never ceases to amaze me in the memories that can be made. Visiting spots such as the Louvre, Versailles, Normandy, Notre Dame, the Effie tower, and a dash of Disney and more made the week worth every moment. Getting to learn while seeing the sights make it even better!



Wonderful Time
May 09, 2025by: Jeff and Jennifer Washburn - United StatesProgram: Global Citizen-Focused Learning in FranceWe, my wife and I truly had a wonderful time in Paris and the other locations featured in the GCAC France trip. I rate the experience as unforgerable. Loved the trip to Normandy and we were filled with emotion as we toured the American cemetery at Normandy.
