Back to School season is always exciting, filled with anticipation and first impressions. New students, new faculty, new friends – it’s one of our favorite times of year!

Our Story

BRT Cares

Student safety has always been our top priority. For decades, we’ve been designing and modifying our best practices around safety and this latest season is no different. We specifically designed our BRT Cares program to help our travelers and their parents feel safe on the road.

We’re Bob Rogers Travel and we’ve had the privilege of traveling the world with directors and their students since 1981. Our founder, Bob Rogers, was an experienced band director who had seen travel impact the lives of his students, so he set out to create a group travel company that served the unique needs of his fellow educators and their student performers. Today, the Rogers family continues to serve band directors and music educators across the country.
