Homestay Exchanges
Opening hearts and minds for years to come
Back by popular demand are our homestay exchanges. Expertly organized and executed, we partner American high schools with Foreign high schools to participate in reciprocal exchanges. Both groups stay with families for about 2-weeks at a time. They will spend a couple of days in schools shadowing their host student in classes and activities, while on other days, they go on local excursions to see the sites.
The US schools typically travel during winter or spring breaks, while European schools typically travel in the fall. These experiences are priceless when you think about the opportunities that not only the students have to see another country, but also for families that may have never gotten the chance to learn about another culture. Often families, students, and teachers make life-long friends and we have so many stories of independent trips to see each other long after the exchanges are finished.
We offer exchange programs with schools in the US, and Europe, and for a more cost-effective option, US groups can partner with a school in Canada.
If you are looking to start an exchange program at your school, we can guide you through the best practices and provide you with materials to present to your school’s administration.

Organizing successful tours for students, teachers, and groups for 20 years.
We believe in transparency, education, and the environment. Our mission is to provide outstanding tours for customers at a fair price. Hummingbird specializes in group tours. We have a knack for researching and pricing accurately so the customer always knows they are getting the best price. We have traveled all over Western Europe and the United States and will be expanding to other parts of the world. This company was born from two tour operating professionals (that happen to have the same initials) wanting to take group travel to a new level. We are tired of seeing groups being overcharged for an inflated profit. We look forward to expanding our vision for clean, transparent, educational travel available to everyone.
