"Ray Haupt organized and led a group of high school students on the trip of my lifetime! During my three weeks in Germany, I visited many great places and learned so much about each one. I think and brag about my trip often and I will always treasure the time I spent in Germany with Mr. Haupt! " - Summer 2004

"When Mr. Haupt first announced a Spring Break trip to Germany, I was a little hesitant to join because I had never been out of the country, but he promised an extraordinary trip and he certainly delivered! It was such a wonderful adventure! Mr. Haupt had an amazing itinerary planned for our group and we saw beautiful castles, towns and countrysides. With Mr. Haupt as our wonderful tour guide I was not just a tourist of a beautiful country, I was learning about and embracing the German culture because, of course, Mr. Haupt knows all the best restaurants in town! My experiences during my trip to Germany opened my eyes to different cultures and inspired me to take advantage of every opportunity to travel abroad! " - Spring 2006

"Mr. Haupt leads an amazing adventure throughout Germany. All the wonderful information that he knows about each place we stopped is incredible. Never once did I feel bored when Mr. Haupt was providing historic information about the castles we saw, the salt mine we ventured into, or the Rhine River (just a few of the awesome places we went). I don't think you could get a better tour than the one led by Mr. Haupt. It was an experience that I still talk about and look back on to this day. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone! !
