The experience of a lifetime
November 18, 2025by: Asher Lockner - United StatesProgram: TFT for Older Teens: Greece Island HoppingMy Greece island-hopping trip with TFT was honestly one of the best things I’ve done. I knew the views were gonna be nice, but seeing everything in person was crazy. Every island had its own vibe, so the trip never felt repetitive. One day we’d be exploring little streets and shops, and the next we’d be chilling on a beach with water so clear it didn’t even look real. Everything ran smoother than I expected too. We were moving around a lot, but TFT kept it organized without making it feel strict. The leaders were helpful and chill, and they let us actually enjoy the places we were in instead of rushing us everywhere. Even the ferry rides were fun because the scenery was wild. The food was another highlight. I tried way more Greek food than I thought I would — gyros, seafood, pastries — and pretty much everything hit. Just sitting outside eating with that view made it better. But honestly, the group made the trip what it was. Traveling with people your age who are also excited to explore makes the whole experience way more fun. It felt like a good mix of adventure and just hanging out. If you’re thinking about going, definitely go. It’s worth it.
The best trip I’ve ever been on!
November 18, 2025by: Jack Longman - United StatesProgram: TFT for Older Teens: Iceland AdventureThis trip was breathtaking, it not only helped me to create lifelong friends, but helped me to create memories I’ll cherish my whole life. Going into this trip I was quite nervous to be traveling alone. Luckily, the staff and my fellow travelers helped more than I can put into words

I had the best 11 days of my life!!!
November 18, 2025by: Addison Blons - United StatesProgram: Travel For Teens: Costa Rica AdrenalineLast summer I had the amazing oppurtunity of going on a Travel For Teens trip! Traveling had always been a dream of mine and when I found this program I automatically fell in love with the idea of traveling alone with a big group of strangers my age. I went into this trip a little scared, but left with lifelong memories and friends. There wasn't a moment during the 11 days that I wasn't having fun or making new memories. All of us teenagers became super close from the second we got off the plane. My favorite memory from the trip was swimming in the ocean during sunset, and laughing with all my new friends. Travel for Teens truly brough together the best group of kids, and I wish everyone could experience what I did.

I was inspired to go abroad by the food and the chance to experience new things. I really wanted to try new food. I love trying new foods wherever I go and going abroad is a great way to try different and authentic food. Also, traveling abroad gives you the chance to experience things and see things you never would imagine. I was amazed by some of the places we saw, like the Duomo and the Vatican. If you have the chance to travel abroad, take it!
