Founded in 1967 by Marty Abrams, a former school teacher in Brooklyn, NY, Junior Tours has always operated as a family run business. We’ve earned an impeccable reputation for treating our clients with honesty, integrity and respect. It’s our job to make them look good in front of their students, parents and administration. Most teachers who travel with Junior Tours return year after year and become part of our extended family.
In 2012, Junior Tours acquired Manhattan Tour & Travel, another family owned Tour Company who focuses solely on planning Theatre Art Tours of New York City. The merger created many opportunities for all our clients who benefit from greater organizational resources.
