Frequently Asked Questions

A traditional summer camp for young campers typically involves fun activities in the morning and stories in front of a campfire at night. Nowadays, a summer camp can have specialized activities or themes such as language learning, computer programming, or performing arts. It could also be educational or academic and open to participants across different age groups.

The average cost per person per day of a day camp is $178, while for sleep-away camp is $448. On the other hand, a specialty camp can go from $260 up to $2,900 per week depending on the theme or activities. Fees typically include the use of facilities and amenities, meals and snacks, transport service, activities, and housing.

The activities involved in a summer camp depend on the organization or provider and the main theme. Generally, participants enjoy outdoor sports and activities, arts and crafts, music, and life skills. Perhaps, the most common activity is gathering around a campfire at night.

Always remember to pack light when preparing for camp and pack from the top down. The list should include headgear, clothing, footwear (broken in and stretched to the shape of the feet), gear, bed, toiletries, and bath. All items should have labels.

I went on the Rustic Pathways Thailand Adventurer trip, and it was the best experiences of my life. The leaders were absolutely fantastic and always there whenever you need them. The company itself was very well ran and organized. The people were all super nice making my time even more enjoyable! All the activities were super fun and I loved my time traveling, exploring, and immersing myself into the Thailand culture!
