We are booking many of our families on college exploration tours with their high schoolers (as we now have two in college and one high school senior!).  Our packages include airfare, car rentals, convenient hotels and route planning.  It’s such an exciting yet stressful time for families; so having a well-planned and organized trip can really make the difference (we just let you take care of the tours at each school).  More hotels are throwing out special rates and packages for such an occasion that also give you time to enjoy the college locales.  For example, in Boston where there are over 50 institutions of higher learning, the Commonwealth Hotel offers a College Visit Package. It includes your room, two Fenway Park tour tickets, reference book on fun Boston vocabulary slang to prepare you for your Boston years ahead, a $20 gift card to New England’s own Dunkin’ Donuts, a Boston map with local hot spots, and a 20 percent discount for graduation year 2020.
