"We had a wonderful and memorable trip and I am hearing nothing but superlatives from students, parents and faculty. Everyone is thrilled with our tour. As am I. Already I am receiving notes and letters from parents that ask me to let them know when the next trip will be. They want to go where ever it is. Thanks all for setting up and running such a great trip. It's too early to even think about our next trip, but you can be assured that Witte will be our travel company."
Fred Angerstein, Band and Orchestra Director of the Kinkaid Band and Orchestra, Houston, Texas
"Thanks for your efforts to make this a truly wonderful choir tour. So many things about it were the best ever. From great hotels, to wonderful acoustics at all concert venues, to good audiences despite the holiday time, to fabulous weather! And from our side of things—this was definitely our finest choir to date. Liina was a wonderful guide and helpful in so many ways."
