Teen Travel Trips in UK, Europe & Canada

Met some amazing people on this trip, loads of freedom for you to decide together what you want to do and the staff were brilliant at helping guide us while still making sure we did all the planning and booking ourselves. This meant we could choose everything that we did and everywhere we went making the whole trip really entertaining and it stopped people from taking over or not doing enough as they made sure that no one was left out and that everyone was doing something at each stage. Most memorable experiences I've had and made some great friends.

Our son had a great 2 weeks away with teens his own age exploring cities across Europe with excellent supportive adults giving the teenagers space to make choices, plan their days and explore things they wouldn’t normally encounter. After 7 great years at camp with L&E this a fantastic next step for our son on his way to feeling more independent, planning what he wants to do and enjoying the freedom of a non parent holiday. True collaborative and inclusive environment allowed all the teenagers to take the lead, make choices, learn to plan and take control of their lives. The smiles in the photos said it all.

Our son, aged 15, wanted to take part in Team Travel primarily to find out how to navigate and travel in Europe independently, to visit new cities and to have some adventures along the way. Learning how to run a budget for living expenses, book trans-European train tickets, and choose a good hostel were all valuable experiences. Getting to choose activities, the sights to see and places to eat was an added bonus. Decision making as part a group was challenging, both as a team member and sometimes as the leader, but support from staff helped to build confidence and encourage independence.

I have done L&E Teen Travel 3 times and every single time was a fantastic experience. The staff are so friendly, good fun and are great at making sure everybody is involved. They understand teenagers and make the whole experience one to never forget. I have made new friends with people from all over world and not via internet but f2f 😀 It doesn’t feel like one of these travel experiences with lots of rules like ‘lights off’ at ten and not on your mobile from 9 to 6 etc..etc... and yet at the same time it’s very well organised and they keep an eye out for safety and that everybody is included.

I enjoyed Teen Travel because it was a great life learning experience as well as fun. Teen Travel prepared me for being on my own as an adult. I was able to gain every day life experiences such as, managing a budget, being responsible for my own transportation and accommodations and working along side people who are different from me. I believe these are all skills that you need to know as an adult and I am glad I had the opportunity to learn these things while also enjoying my time. To me the best part of Teen Travel is that it didn’t even feel like we were working, everything was completely enjoyable and I, along with the other teens we’re in control of all the fun activities and places we went.

I recommend Teen Travel to teens across the world. One thing that I noticed about not only Teen Travel but the L&E camp as a whole, is that their main goal is for completely different people from across the world to be able to connect with each other through activities and good times. With Teen Travel you get the opportunity to travel and see that world and meet, connect with new people. This is a great opportunity that I everyone should experience.

I loved doing Teen Travel, it is really a once in a lifetime experience that every teenager should do. It helps us acquire skills and develop autonomy as, even if a tutor is checking our decisions, we get to decide and plan everything we want to do.
You get social skills, language skills and organisation skills.
This experience is really open to everyone, even if you are from the UK, it is still another perspective and should definitely consider doing it.
It is the same as travelling with your friends but safer since you have adults with you :)

As a grandmother who has been sending four of my grandchildren to L&E World camps over some years now I just want to say that the experience in terms of communicating in English, having fun and discovering cultural diversity could hardly be more enriching for them. They love the great variety of activities and tell me that time flies. It would seem that the end of camp always comes too soon for them, and as far as I am concerned they get back speaking ever-better English, but also with a real understanding of the 'British way of doing things" .
I shall continue to offer the more mature programs of Teen Travel and Young Global Leaders to my older grandchildren, because I truly believe that L&E is a wonderful way for me to invest in their future.
