2024 Minerva Park DC

2024 Heritage DC

My daughter had a great time.  She thought the hotel was very nice and she really enjoyed all of the meal choices.  I appreciated the security for the students at night.

This was a wonderful trip.  DeAnna is a wonderful person to have with us.  The weather was not great but she changed our schedule to make the most of the trip.  The tulips for the most part were almost all dead.  The warm weather before our trip caused them to bloom early.  Not DeAnna's fault.  She felt bad but we all assured her we understood.  We had 3 tornados touch down close to Holland the second day of our trip.  Had to change things again.  Last day of the trip was beautiful.  The Frederick Meijer gardens were beautiful and a wonderful experience.  
I did answer the survey the first time you sent it.  I am glad to respond because Prime Tours is a great opportunity.  This was not my first trip with them and it won't be my last.

2024 Tulip Time

The trip was a good time, the weather was great 
Visited some great places
The bus driver Barbara was a fantastic driver and a joy to ride with 


2024 Tulip Time - Vandalia Senior Citizens Center

Hello Courtney, 

Thank you for your very detailed review. Those types of details are extremely helpful to us as we plan an evaluate for furture tours. In regard to the driver, we agree that the driver should be appropriate around students. Since we do not own a bus company, we contract local companies to supply buses and drivers. We have sent your review to the contracted motorcoach company so that they will be made aware of it as well. 
Sincerely, Lisa Busch ~ Owner, Prime Tours

My son had a wonderful time on the trip. I was so happy to hear how much he learned and how much he had to say about each place he visited. He filled me in on every detail. It was a jam-packed trip and that gave all of the kids an opportunity to find something that they loved most. His favorites were the boat cruise, the Natural History Museum, and the Changing of the Guard. 

He also shared that the food was not the best. He used most of the spending money that he took to upgrade to other food options in the food courts, so I don't know if that could change or not in the future, but perhaps it could be taken into consideration. Also, his bus driver, Tracy, was terrible he said. She was rude, cussed, blasted the air conditioning and wouldn't make it warmer on the bus (and he doesn't get cold easily), and overall was just a major negative to the trip overall. When the bus driver is on the trip with the kids, I think it is especially important to select the ones that are appropriate around the kids and will add to the experience of getting there and getting home, not take away from it. 

Thank you,
Courtney Mango

The trip was really fun. Willy and Steve were amazing and great to travel with. I had a great time although it was only for 4 days I still really enjoyed myself. Highly recommend for other 8th graders to go on this amazing trip in the future. Thank you so much.

2024 Woodward Park DC

Great trip Deanna did a fabulous job. Carey was very helpful to her.  Plans were quickly rearranged to deal with the weather.  The schedule moved very smoothly and the group was very congenial. Got to see so much with plenty of rest stops and places to rest along the way.  Food was great and accommodations were very comfortable. 

It was a wonderful trip. The people on the bus were so friendly. The tulips and other stops were fantastic. We really enjoyed the trip. This was our first trip through Source Point. We are looking into going on others.

The trip was well planned and timing was great. Our bus driver was a wealth of information as well as personable. The group leaders were knowledgeable and did a great job of keeping the group together. Accommodations were comfortable and food was great for group meals. There was sufficient independent time allowed. I highly recommend Prime Tours. 

2024 FinTan Wild Atlantic Way

Thank you Mary Ann for the detailed review. It’s always helpful to know what our guests enjoyed most and helps us in our choices for future tours. Hope to travel with you again. 

The trip was amazing! Our driver/guide Gary was great (and very amusing too!) We saw so many interesting things in the time we were there. The  jaunting carriage ride was a favorite as was the sheep dog demo. Castles, crystal artists, the Cliffs of Mor, the Aran Islands and so much more! The FinTan concerts were the icing on the cake! I absolutely recommend this tour!

Great trip. Wonderful accommodations, food, sights, tours and transportation..

Fantastic trip.  We rank this as one of our very best.  The folks we traveled with were great, those known and those we met along the way.  Hotels were excellent and our bus driver/tour guide was excellent.  Thank you for organizing this adventure.

Great places to visit. Excellent food and accommodations. Overall fantastic trip to Ireland. Definitely would go on another tour.

Great trip and adventure; food was very good, as well as, the accommodations..  The tour leader was so accommodating and helpful.  He had a great personality.  Overall, I would travel again with Prime Tours.

2023 Blue Christmas at Graceland with Memphis and Nashville

All of our time was filled up with fun things to do. If needed, things smoothly changed and we kept busy for the week. Accommodations were excellent. And somehow they managed to get us there and back with good weather all of the time. I appreciate all that Prime Tours does for us on these trips.

My daughter had a great time! Saw so many sites! Never said she was bored! 

2023 Sacred Heart D.C. Fall

The Tour Guide and bus driver were amazing!! Kids had a wonderful time!!

Prime Tours does a wonderful job planning and guiding the Washington DC trip.  This was the 2nd time I went with Prime Tours and they are wonderful to work with.  We packed a lot into a few days and they were very accommodating when changes needed to be made because of student issues/weather/etc.  

We had a great time and enjoyed meeting new people. Hotel in Boston was great and appreciate all the help getting on and off the ship.

2023 New England and Nova Scotia Cruise with Historic Boston

So well organized it made traveling with a group a real joy. It was relaxing and fun. 


The trip was a lot of fun and met some wonderful people. Despite a couple challenges with the bus everything worked out great and no one got upset. Our guide (Deanna) handled everything very professionally and our driver (Willie) did an excellent job with making alternative arrangements when it was necessary. I would definitely go on another Prime Tour in the future.

2023 Indianapolis & OSU at Purdue

We had an amazing time. So many great memories. We will absolutely book another tour with all of you!

Amazing trip with amazing people. Thank you to Laurel and Prime Tours for making my experience great! I will definitely be returning to Paris as one week just wasn’t enough for me!

2023 @lostinlaurelland in Paris

The whole trip was excellent - well, except for United Airlines.  Prime Tours did a fantastic job.

This trip was amazing. The hotels were superb and the tours were so great.  I loved the tour leaders and all of the history we learned. Kevin and Sheri did a great job. 

 Very well organized and attention to detail.  The train rides were fantastic!  Experienced some delicious dinners.  The guides insured everyone stay well hydrated and had great snacks.  Would highly recommend this trip if you are wanting to experience Colorado and all of its beauty! 

Colorado Train Adventure 2023

It was a wonderful trip! Our hotels were good and the group meal destinations were tasty. We especially appreciated being provided with the extra water to keep us healthy at elevation!!!

What a great trip! We rode 5 very different trains, toured a great gold mine and visited a wonderful railroad museum. Road to the top of Pike’s Peak and toured the Garden of the Gods. Clean and comfortable lodging, good dining choices and an excellent tour leader in Lisa Busch. Our tour guide and bus driver were outstanding as well. You just can’t get any better than Prime Tours! 

I had a great time. I am so glad I went. The tour director was fantastic along with Laura Busch. Everyone was very friendly and enjoyable. I hope to do more traveling in the future with Prime Tours

Very good. Well thought out. Detail specific

2023 Cincinnati and The Ark

My son and his friends and I had a great time. The trip was well planned and I was able to just enjoy myself and enjoy watching the kids experience everything. The hotel was clean and quiet and comfortable. The breakfast at the hotel was a good start to our days. 

Thank you for all of your hard work and attention to detail!

My son had a great time and said the bus driver and all stops and food were great!! Thank you!!!

Bravo! Well done! Well organized! As a parent I felt 100% at peace with the arrangements. Mr. Acocks and all the teachers thought of everything! Trip was smooth, and the tour covered so much of the key sites in DC. My daughter had a blast! 

Thank you for giving my daughter a once in a lifetime experience! This is her 1st time out of state and she loved it! She has many memories to carry with her. With your partnership with her teachers, she felt comfortable and safe! I thank you all so much!

My grandson said he had an awesome time! He said it was such a great experience and he loved getting to know Washington. Thanks for providing such an experience for these young people. There is nothing better than "hands-on learning!"
