What a trip!
November 12, 2019by: Evie Roberts - United StatesProgram: TFT for Older Teens: Amsterdam, Munich, Swiss Alps & VeniceI had the amazing opportunity to travel on the Europe for Older Teens trip to Amsterdam, Munich, Switzerland, and Venice with TFT in the summer of 2018 and it was one of the best experiences I have ever had! My amazing counselors were so welcoming and inclusive to not only me, but all the campers. I was a little nervous to go on the trip at first, but after just one day on the trip I knew I made the right choice! TFT programs are great because the counselors give you that independence you want, while also keeping everyone safe! That trip was one I will never forget, the memories I made with awesome people is priceless. Thank you TFT!
Amazing time in Europe!
November 20, 2018by: Jessica Paszko - United StatesProgram: TFT for Older Teens: Amsterdam, Munich, Swiss Alps & VeniceThis was my second trip with Travel for Teens and I was just as amazed by this one! The councilors are so knowledgeable when it comes to travel and made everything so much easier, especially for teens leaving the country for the first time. It's always scary to travel without anyone you know, but the councilors make everyone so comfortable with each other and you end up leaving trips with lasting friendships. Through my TFT trip, I was able to see so many different parts of Europe that I never thought would be possible in one trip. I tried different foods from every culture and interacted with locals. On TFT trips, you see the major landmarks in each city, but also the smaller, locally loved hidden gems. I always come back from my TFT trips with too many incredible stories.
Best trip I've ever been on!
October 30, 2018by: Meagan Hoffman - United StatesProgram: TFT for Older Teens: Amsterdam, Munich, Swiss Alps & VeniceMy trip with Travel for Teens to Amsterdam, Munich, Switzerland and Venice was one I’ll remember for my entire life. The people I meet and the places I saw were ones that will stay with me my entire life. From seeing the city of Amsterdam while floating down the canals to canyoning through the Swiss Alps, we saw beautiful sights in adventurous and fun ways. We strolled the streets of Venice and engaged ourselves in the Italian cuisine, and in Germany explored the Bavarian alps while bike riding. The program and counselors were supportive and knew what they were doing, and always made sure we were having fun and always in a good mood.

After finishing school and my exams in May, I had a long summer ahead of me before starting university in September. Along with a long founded and keen interest in travel, it made sense to utilise this free time to go abroad.
