"JW had a fantastic experience. He loved the instructors, and the Adventure Treks admin process was wonderful. It was seemless and the right amount of outreach and communications." – Chris Hannah, New Orleans, LA

"It was an amazing experience across the board. It took our son out of his comfort zone and allowed him to open up to a totally new experience with complete strangers. We wanted him to have an outdoor experience without his family and electronics. We wanted him to meet new people and put himself out there to learn that new things are uncomfortable until you embrace the experience and the people in it. He immediately came home and applied for a job as a counselor at his old sleepaway camp. Your team was very helpful with choosing the correct experience, answering all of our questions, alleviating our concerns, communicating and organizing a truly remarkable program." Wayne Sims, Memphis, TN

"Zoe had an amazing adventure this summer. She met some great people and learned a lot about the outdoors and herself. I loved the pictures and the updates. Very happy they were device-free except for the one-time check-in midway through the trip. I believe the most valuable learning lesson was perseverance. They were up against some uncomfortable situations like weather, bugs, terrain, camping. She came home with a sense of accomplishment." – Kimberly Cavill, Harpers Ferry, WV

"Ames enjoyed the variety of activities and loved the different locations within Yellowstone and the Tetons. He also really enjoyed the others in his group; everyone had a great attitude and was invested in the experience. It was a great experience for Ames, and as parents we were well informed throughout the process. The entire process was top-notch. Great communication." – Emery Bettis, Winston Salem, NC

"My son gained confidence and was proud of his accomplishments because he achieved things he never had before. He had the best summer of his life." – Aly Gutierrez, Springfield, VA

"Adventures Treks trips have provided both of our daughters the opportunity to step outside their comfort zones, both physically and socially in safe and accepting environments. Whether on a two-week trip to Colorado or a four-week trip to Alaska, the experiences offered to the kids allow them to challenge themselves with the support, love, and encouragement of the instructors and other students. On the trip, the kids can be kids without the worry of social media. They interact face-to-face with one another and develop bonds unlike anywhere else that can connect them for life. The trip can truly be transformative in a teen’s life and be something they look forward to doing every summer." – Laura Sklenicka, Atlantic Beach, FL
