Travel For Teens: Italy Explorer

Travel for Teens is the best decision I’ve ever made! Our Italy Explorer trip was planned out perfectly and executed by the kind, caring and fun Counselors. We felt like a big family on the trip. From eating pasta in Venice to a incredible beach in Monterosso, it was a experience like no other. But what really struck me is the way the staff handled a unfortunate situation in Florence that was out of the companies control. The hostel we were originally planned to stay at turned out to be not up to the companies high standards, so the trip counselor, office staff in Philadelphia and the CEO of the company quickly created a plan of action to move all 25 of us to a different hotel in Florence. Even with this hiccup, the experience of Florence was not ruined but only improved! While the senior director figured out a new hotel, we didn’t skip a beat in enjoying Florence. I am so glad that I found a company I can trust and continue to love. Thank you Travel for teens!

There are so many amazing places in Italy, it seems impossible to see all the famous and breathtaking sights in one trip, right? WRONG! I had always wanted to travel throughout Italy to get a chance to explore both the countryside of Tuscany and the beaches of Cinque Terre, and this trip was the perfect way to do just that. The activities on this trip ranged from a vast variety of making homemade pesto in a local Italian restaurant in Monterosso to climbing up the steep and slanted stairs of the Duomo in Florence. Whether I was hiking along the breathtaking views of the Cinque Terre trails or attempting to take a clever photo holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa, I was never found without a smile on my face. The friendships I made on this trip are still strong to this day, and the memories and experiences were unforgettable.

Classic Italy was my first travel for teen trip I ever went on and i’m so glad it was. During your trip to italy you get to see all the iconic places and things there. Every place you went was like a new experience mostly when your traveling with friends. The trip had everything in it from seeing the colosseum to hiking. Every place we went the consolers knew everything about it. The consolers also did such a great job of getting us everywhere mostly in such big places. Italy is know for great pasta so we got to learn how to make pasta. We even got to went to a amazing winery where the view was phenomenal and pasta was delicious. Classic Italy made me realize my love for traveling and after this trip I knew I wanted to do more!
