HOW MUCH WILL IT COST? MTL & QC combined $645 / 49 paying participants MTL only $455 / 49 paying participants QC only $399 / 49 paying participants • The per student rate will fluctuate based on the number of paying participants traveling. • As a rule, $75-$100 USD should be sufficient spending money for a 3-4 day “all inclusive” program, excluding clothes shopping or big ticket items. • Jumpstreet highly recommends the RGP (Refund Guarantee Protection) plan to all students, it allows them to cancel for any reason and receive a full refund (minus the cost of the plan) up to 48 hours prior to the trip’s departure. It also locks in the per student rate should a student with the RGP plan opt to cancel.
WHAT is INCLUDED in the TOUR PRICE? We’re glad you asked! • Roundtrip transportation via luxury motorcoach (es). • Complimentary Chaperon at a rate of 1 per 10 students (negotiable). • Hotel Accommodations as per your budget.

COST BREAKDOWN • The number of paying participants affects the per student rate for the trip. • The largest part of the overall cost is the motor coach, the more paying participants per coach, the less expensive it becomes for everyone. • When a student cancels at the last minute, causing a reduction in the overall numbers, this causes the per person rate to increase for the remaining students. Therefore, your deposit is only refundable if a replacement can be found.
