“…best travel experience… I have ever had!”
“My husband is a director of Bands in Oklahoma and we just finished a 6 day trip to Orlando, Florida. Jerry and his entire team were extremely helpful and we felt so well taken care of. The team always had the best intentions and made sure that they went above and beyond for everyone. This was the best travel experience, especially with a large group I have ever had!
I could not recommend them more and I am so thankful for the way they achieved a memorable, fun trip for both the students and the adults present.”

“This team is top-tier on every level”
“As the Trip Planner, I give every one of you a hundred stars. You have been the absolute best to work with the past 18 months. You are kind, detailed & organized yet see the big picture, patient and urgent at the appropriate times, timely to perfection. You guided, advised, considered every angle, respected, listened, you took care of everyone, you took charge when needed – there is not one thing I can say other than thank you for everything.
I am more than happy to talk with any group considering a trip. This team is top-tier on every level. I could not recommend more highly. You are worth gold.”

“… made the trip worry-free”
“SBNYC was an amazing company to work with and I heartily recommend them to anybody planning a trip with a student group in NY (or anywhere else they operate). They have been wonderful throughout the planning process and are very organized, down to the smallest detail. We started working with them 18 months out, and all the way through to the end of our trip, they were always there for us to answer all our questions and meet all of our needs. Everything we asked for or needed during the trip, they took care of. Everyone on their team – from the top down, was knowledgeable, safety-conscious, professional, friendly, and customer-oriented. They also know NYC inside-out. In the busy weeks leading up to the trip, we felt calm and confident, knowing that we were in excellent hands. They made the trip worry-free for me (the band administrator), our directors, and our chaperones. This was an amazing trip of a lifetime for the Jenison High School Marching Band! Thank you, SBNYC!”

“We had an amazing time on our trip.”
““We had an amazing time on our trip. Students on Broadway had all details in place and organized, I didn’t have to worry about one detail. We went on the NYC Guided Tour and our tour guide was AMAZING! We couldn’t stop telling people about the incredible knowledge that he has and how laid back the trip was. Usually I feel rushed on guided tours, but with this tour everything was planned with adequate time and even perfectly timed bathroom breaks. All staff that we interacted with was happy to assist with any questions we had. Hats off to Students on Broadway, highly recommend!!”“

“…went above and beyond…”
““The trip with the Centerville Jazz Band was spectacular! As the Band Booster President and one of the planners on our end of the trip, I appreciate all of the hard work and dedication from the Receptive/ Students on Broadway team. They certainly went above and beyond -from the beginning of the planning process to the trip wrap-up meeting, Jerry, Jessica, and their team had our interests in heart and made this the best trip for our organization. The hotel was nice, the breakfast buffet was tasty, the Thanksgiving dinner was amazing for our band students and families. Having Jessica and her team there in Orlando with us put my mind at ease! Thank you!!!!”“

“SBNYC is the best student travel company…”
“We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. The food was great, and the space was perfect for our large group. The DJ did an excellent job and kept the kids entertained the whole evening. I cannot say enough about SBNYC. My husband & I were the booster presidents during the 2021 Macy’s trip and didn’t hesitate to recommend SBNYC to the new booster president for this year’s trip to Orlando. SBNYC’s commitment to detail and their willingness to be transparent with pricing sets them apart from all other travel companies out there. This is the 4th trip we have been involved with planning with the Centerville band. Our first two trips were with another travel company and I can honestly say SBNYC is the best student travel company I have ever had the pleasure to work with I highly recommend them to any school group planning a trip.”

“…this trip was fantastic.”
“We had a fabulous time. The accommodations were great! So was the food. The breakfast buffet was our favorite meal of the day. We really enjoyed the Thanksgiving Day banquet and celebration. The planning and organization of this trip was fantastic. I was very impressed with the communication updates and the responsiveness to questions. From my perspective, it looked like things went so smoothly. We really enjoyed our time in Florida with the band and at the Disney parks.”

“The trip was amazing!”
““The trip was amazing! Hotel was great as well! It was very close to most places. Our tour guide Gary was great!!! I can’t say enough good things about him. The Broadway Workshop was so great and the students really loved it! It was certainly a highlight. We really loved everything and the kids got to go to the Harry Potter store and it was a great surprise! They loved the Statue of Liberty, 9/11 Memorial, and they loved to shop! The only negative thing was all the walking, but that is just city life in New York. Thank you sooo much for planning this awesome trip.”“

“…great time with the tour guides”
“Our son was on tour at the end of March with That Wylie Band through Comack Tours. Students on Broadway was their tour guide in NYC. Our son left his clarinet on his bus after their performance. Students on Broadway and Cormack Tours were very helpful in finding his instrument and getting it returned to us in a timely manner. Not only will you have a great time with the tour guides, but they will also be helpful if there is a problem on or after your trip. “

“Very professional and helpful”
“I was recently part of a large student tour as a chaperone in NYC. The four people from SBNYC with whom we came in contact were very professional and helpful. The tour guide of the group I was with was not only exceptionally knowledgeable about the city/history/buildings/traditions, etc., he was also a motivator and shared insights and sage advice for the students to hear and take to heart”

“EXCELLENT experience”
“Thank you so much for everything!!!! As the trip coordinator for the Cicero North Syracuse Marching Band, I was very pleased with my experience working with your team. I worked with them to plan our student experience and our Friends and Family package. During the 18 month planning period, Jerry and his team answered every question quickly and professionally. No question was silly and all were answered very timely- even in the evening and on weekends.” Read More

“Truly have a passion for what they do…”
“Students on Broadway NYC helped the Rockford marching band have an incredible experience while in NY! As the band administrative assistant, I found their help and ability to handle every situation that arose during the planning stages to be invaluable. During the trip, they were upbeat, incredibly helpful, and it was obvious that they cared about the students – this was not just a job for them, they truly have a passion for what they do. Thank you!!”

“Trip of a lifetime”
“As the Rockford Marching Band’s Friends and Family Coordinator for our group of over 1100, I interacted very closely with this dedicated team of professionals. I can’t say enough about how well they paid attention to the smallest details. This ensured our group experienced, as several of our families told me, ‘the trip of a lifetime’.”

“Above the call of duty…”
“Students On Broadway NYC made my job so much easier as a tour leader by escorting us to venues, collecting tickets for us while we ate, making sure that children with allergies were being looked after, dealing with the hotel, helping us onto the subways, etc. We were even escorted to the airport and seen through baggage check-in, which is a first in my career. The Students On Broadway NYC team worked well above the call of duty during our visit and provided us a lot of extras that made this trip the most successful I have ever been a part.“

You could not do enough for us and we all warmed to you immediately. Your passion for your city and your job was clear – thank you for sharing this with us!“
