High School Outdoor Education Programs Abroad

It may seem overwhelming to decide where you should go for your outdoor education program in high school, but do not fear! There is undoubtedly a place out there that is tailored to fit your personality.

Costa Rica is a tropical choose-your-own-adventure land where all trails lead to waterfalls. Rainforest hikes, rushing white water rapids, world-class surfing, and the rush of a canopy zipline will definitely leave you in a sundazed siesta on the beach at the end of the day.

Mexico conjures up diverse, vivid dreams of adventure that come to life. If the chili-laden cuisine doesn’t set you on fire, the abundance of adventure sure will! With jungles, volcanoes, and a long coastline strung with sandy beaches and wildlife-rich lagoons, Mexico is an endless adventure for the senses, and a place where life is lived largely in the open air.

Every country in the world displays diversity, but South Africa takes some beating. It sits at the southern end of the world’s most epic continent, with more types of terrain to explore than photographers can shake their zoom lens at. Cruise the Okavango Delta in a dugout canoe while marveling the raw beauty of the country.

Greece was an amazing trip because of Travels for Teen. It allowed me to meet new people from all over the world. This program provided me with great experiences, such as scuba diving, visiting historic monuments, and getting gelato after a long day out. It allowed me to get to know everyone in a way that I would have never experienced otherwise. I loved how we all bonded as a group with are counselors. Overall, my experience was what it was because of the amazing program the Travel for Teens offers.

My daughter was a rising 10th grader and was on the Costa Rica service and adventure trip. She had such an incredible experience! She loved exploring the different areas of Costa Rica, the beautiful beaches, the stunning rainforests and waterfalls- and most importantly the life changing service experience. She wants to go back again and again!
