what's included

Committed to a Higher Standard of Excellence!

Harmony International is one of the few companies that not only takes care of the travel arrangements, but also coordinates in complete detail such things as performance venues and cultural/educational opportunities.  In addition, we don't just wave good-bye to your group at the airport and hand you off to some unknown travel company overseas….a member of our staff, usually your project manager whom you have been working with since the beginning, goes along to handle every aspect - SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO!

What we include as standard:

• Harmony International Staff Member
  As part of your package, Harmony International provides you with a REAL staff member from our office taking care of you and your group from the time you take off till the time you arrive back in the United States.
• Excellent international flights
  With Harmony International, you always fly with the world's best international airlines. Volume buying power helps us minimize unnecessary flight connections.
• Concert/Educational/Cultural Arrangements
  Our goal is to create the ultimate atmosphere for a changed life through experience!  Our office works with local organizations to maximize concert venues, educational experiences, cultural impact and for our religious trips maximum use of talents for changed lives.
• Quality travel abroad
  We promise the fastest and most reliable ground transportation, usually by motor coach. And since getting there is part of the fun, you may find yourself climbing the Alps by cable car, speeding across France in a high-speed TGV train or traversing between the Greek isles aboard a cruise ship.
• Harmony International Staff/Experienced Tour Director
  Along with a Harmony International staff member, an enthusiastic bilingual guide travels with you 24 hours a day to make sure things go smoothly every step of the way. Your tour team also leads sightseeing expeditions, conducts spontaneous free-time outings, and offers tips for local restaurants and shopping.
• Experiential learning opportunities
  Make pizza in Italy, dance the flamenco in Spain, plant palms in Costa Rica. Learn about the local culture by participating in it, not just by watching it. It’s more fun that way!
• Meals with local flavor
  We start the day right with a full European breakfast: cereal; bread and rolls with butter and jam; juice, coffee, tea, or cocoa; often yogurt, fruit, cheese or breakfast meat. Lunch is yours to explore a little of the local fare. Dinner is a delicious three-course meal at restaurants known for their atmosphere and regional specialties—paella in Valencia, tarte flambée in Paris, fish and chips in London and Humus in Israel!.
• Privately guided sightseeing
  All Harmony International tours include a sightseeing overview of every major city by motor coach—so you can get the lay of the land. Visits to important monuments and museums are privately led by a professional guide. Your Tour Director will also lead occasional walking tours of cultural attractions off the beaten track. And we build in plenty of free time to get inspired by the local atmosphere.
• Superior hotel accommodations
  A good night’s sleep is important, so count on superior tourist class hotels with private baths. Most Harmony International hotels are located in the center of town near public transportation. And rest assured, we inspect every hotel personally to ensure it’s comfortable, clean and safe.
• Health Insurance
  As part of every package, standard health insurance is taken out on each participant in case of medical emergency while on our project.
