Adventure Tours in Dubrovnik, Croatia

Last summer (2023) I was lucky enough to join a trip with Travel for Teens to Prague, Austria, Slovenia, and Croatia. As an 18-year-old traveler, it was important for me to find a company that could cater to my age group and interests, and Travel for Teens more than exceeded my expectations. From the moment I arrived in Prague, I could tell that I was in good hands. The itinerary was packed with amazing experiences that I don't think I could have gotten anywhere else. It was clear that Travel for Teens had done their research and put together a trip that was both unique and exciting. One of the things that really stood out to me was the variety of activities we got to do. One day we were exploring Prague’s winding cobblestone streets, and the next we were whitewater rafting through the rivers in Bled, Slovenia. Each day felt like a new adventure, and I loved that we got to see and experience so much in such a short amount of time. Another thing that made this trip so special was the people. Our counselors were fantastic - knowledgeable, friendly, and always there to answer our questions. But what really stood out to me was the opportunity to form lifelong friendships with the other older teens on the trip. From day one, we were encouraged to get to know our fellow travelers and break out of our comfort zones. Through team-building activities, group dinners, and shared experiences, we formed bonds that will last a lifetime. What impressed me most was the maturity level of my fellow travelers. We were all there to have fun and get to know each other, but we were also respectful and responsible. Our trip leaders trusted us and gave us enough freedom to explore on our own, but also made sure we were safe and accounted for. It was so cool to meet other teens from all over the world who shared my love of travel and adventure. We all quickly became friends and had a blast exploring together. Overall, I can't recommend Travel for Teens enough. This trip was such a unique experience traveling to countries I otherwise would not have visited and I feel so lucky to have been a part of it. If you're an older teen looking for an unforgettable travel experience, definitely check them out. You won't regret it !!

For my second trip in Travel for Teens I wanted a less common experience traveling in Europe then I did the previous year going to Italy, Spain, and France. I choose to explore beautiful countries and cities of Prague, Vienna, Slovenia and Croatia. The entire trip was a dream from start to finish. The friendships started in the airport and still continue on two years later, visiting each other at college. The counselors were so supportive with our decisions and tried their best to accommodate every request. This trip was the perfect balance of outdoor adventures and beautiful cities. The trip was rich in history, along with beautiful views, and amazing cuisine.

This trip was the perfect blend of culture, adventure, down time, history, and nature! TFT's greatest strength, in my opinion, is their ability to fill itineraries with something for everyone. Slovenia hadn't really been on my travel radar, and I didn't know much about the country before going. However, after the time we spent there I'm convinced it's one of the most beautiful places in the world (see the picture below)! The staff were accommodating and very knowledgable, both about the countries we were in and travel in general. I never felt like a tourist. We always had heightened experiences that I never would have been able to plan myself. TFT has an amazing long standing network of friends and relationships around the globe, strengthened from all of the years they've done these trips. Being a trip for older teens, we had the perfect amount of free time and ability to explore on our own, if we chose to. There were times I forgot I was even on a trip with counselors, as I walked down the streets of Dubrovnik with one or two campers looking for a lunch spot. Activities ranged from exploring Prague's ancient libraries, shopping the streets of Split, and swimming in the beautiful Lake Bled. Even traveling between countries was a treat. The bus ride from Slovenia to Croatia was stunning, with mountains and crystal clear lakes around every corner. Sign up for this trip!! You will love it!!

This past summer, I had the ability to travel with Travel for Teens to the beautiful countries and cities of Prague, Vienna, Slovenia and Croatia. The experiences I had while on this trip is one I will never forget. From meeting friends that will last a lifetime to seeing sights unimaginable, my entire trip was beyond amazing. From a biking tour through the beautiful city of Prague, to seeing breathtaking castles in Vienna, and swimming in the clearest water in Slovenia, the adventures and sights I saw while on this trip were ones that will forever be some of the most beautiful places I have seen. The counselors were great in helping us learn about the culture and making us feel like travelers, not tourists. I wish I could do this trip again.
