Established in 1993, the team at Kaleidoscope Adventures has over two centuries of combined experience in the travel industry. Kaleidoscope Adventures is registered with the state of Florida as a seller of Travel and is members of the American Bus Association (ABA), Student Youth Travel Association (SYTA), Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), National Association for Music Education (NAfME), International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the Better Business Bureau (BBB). We adhere to a strict code of ethics to maintain the above-mentioned memberships.

We generally recommend $10 to $20 per meal if eating on your own. However, some meals are generally included in the trip package, so please check with your teacher/sponsor for details regarding specific trip inclusions. Students may also want to bring additional money for souvenir shopping at your own discretion. We suggest each student takes $50 to $100 for souvenirs.

Kaleidoscope Adventures Cancellation Policy – Individuals

At Registration: Your full deposit is non-refundable when received by Kaleidoscope Adventures.Between 2nd payment date and 35 Days Prior to Departure: The entire per person deposit is non-refundable + any unrecoverable fees paid to suppliers (including shared group costs).35 Days or Less Prior to Departure: 100% of payments are non-refundable.You will also have the option to purchase travel protection including special cancel for any reason coverage (not available in the State of NY) when you register.

We understand that circumstances may require trips to cancel before or even during travel.  The team at KA will work closely with your group leaders and school district to reschedule the trip.

There is nothing more important than the health and well-being of our travelers.  Your safety is always our priority.  To ensure that you have the safest trip possible, we are taking bold steps, starting with a 24/7 Professional Tour Director assigned to your group.  In addition, we:

• Increased safety protocol training for all KA staff and tour directors
• Include post-departure travel protection as a gift for each traveler

Our plan is designed to help you travel confidently and safely.  As always, you can expect constant communication, coordination, and troubleshooting from your Professional Tour Director, and access to a staffed, 24-hour emergency line during your trip.

As you plan your adventure, know that fluctuations in the economy have impacted the travel industry dramatically. As a result, your trip price may change.  For example, transportation costs may have increased, or your favorite restaurant may now be closed.

The KA staff is comprised of seasoned professionals who always provide travel beyond expectations.  They’ll put our stellar reputation to work to find the best alternatives or solutions for your group.  However, this may occasionally mean a price change.  Kaleidoscope Adventures will never sacrifice quality or your safety to save a buck.

You can purchase insurance up until the final payment is received by our company.  We use an insurance company and specific codes are given for each school.  Contact either your group leader organizing the trip or our office for that code.  After you have that code, you can use it to see the travel insurance options on our affiliate’s site (Travel Insured).

Adding travel protection to your KA trip after you’ve registered is simple:

1. Go to the trip website for your specific trip
2. Click on the registration link under the heading “Travel Protection Plans”
