Parents
Booking your son or daughter's high school graduation trip with GradWeek means booking with a company that fully staffs the trip, is present at all trip sponsored events, and is accessible on-site 24/7. No online travel company provides this level of support, professionalism, and piece of mind.
Over the years we have found that there are many questions parents have regarding student travel trips. Through countless conversations with parents we have found that once they receive the answers to these questions, they feel much more comfortable about the trip and letting their son or daughter participate. At GradWeek we understand that to a parent the most important aspect of one of our trips is the safe return home of your son or daughter. We do everything in our power to provide you with that peace of mind.
Parents are welcome to travel with us on any of our trips! Through our Parent Travel Program, parents are able to travel with their son or daughter to enjoy some sun and fun of their own while their son or daughter celebrates his or her graduation. In recent years we have seen significant growth in the numbers of parents accompanying their son or daughter on their graduation trip. Our Parent Travel Program provides parents with the ability to be with their son or daughter abroad, but also provides both parents and students with enough freedom to fully enjoy all that our great destinations have to offer!
We also invite you to visit our Frequently Asked Questions ("FAQ") page for additional information. Of course our customer service agents are always happy to speak with you as well. At GradWeek we want you to feel confident and comfortable that you have selected the right tour company for your son or daughter's trip. When you travel with GradWeek, you're traveling with the best.
