Travelling the world as a teen can be fun, but what if your trip was also transformative?
With our teen travel programs, you'll return home with more than photos; you'll develop skills, a global perspective, and experience for your CV.
- Don't just see a country, become part of its community. Our projects offer cultural immersion that goes beyond typical tourist spots
- Develop Skills that boost confidence. Gain leadership, teamwork, and problem-solving skills
- Universities and employers value global citizenship and service. An international volunteer experience is a powerful addition to CVs and personal statements
- Bond with other teens from around the world over a shared purpose, forming friendships that last a lifetime
How do our teen travel programs work?
At its core, it involves travelling overseas with other teens to support communities in need.
Think of it as Adventure with Purpose, immersing yourself in a different culture while making a positive impact.
You could help teach English to disadvantaged children, preserve and monitor endangered species, construct essential buildings for communities in need, and much more.
Our teen programs take place on fixed dates during the school holidays and run for two weeks each.
Your programme includes everything you need:
- All accommodation, food, and activities
- A completely stress-free and organised experience
- In-country supervision from arrival to departure
- A genuine opportunity to create a lasting impact
Simply find the program and location you're passionate about below, and we will provide a safe, fully structured, and supervised experience.
How do we keep you safe?
We believe that no other provider offers the same level of safety and security to their participants that we do.
For over 30 years, we've taken care of every aspect of safety while participants travel abroad with us.
Some of the ways we keep you safe are:
- 24/7 in-country support
- Fully-vetted, highly-trained staff and hand-picked accommodation
- Expert supervision - with a staff-to-teen ratio of 1 to 8
- Comprehensive pre-departure training on your own personal webpage
We follow up-to-the-minute guidance from the British Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) (as well as officials in other countries) regarding safety.
We also devise comprehensive risk management strategies and train our local staff on crisis management plans so they know what to do in any situation.
We're here for you every step of the way. From the moment you start planning your trip to the day you head home, we'll be here to support you.
What are the requirements?
Our programs are designed for teens aged 15 to 18, who would like to gain experience; therefore, there is no experience required to join.
We’ll ensure you’re prepared, supported, and ready to go.
There are also no language requirements for our teen programs, as English is spoken by staff in all the countries we work in; you won't need to know the native language; however, you will likely pick up some phrases while you’re there.

“Absolutely life changing.
The only complaint I have is that it wasn't longer.
Volunteering in Cambodia and meeting like-minded individuals is a priceless experience I absolutely encourage you to attend a project or even better send your kids here.”
Nathaniel, Community Work in Cambodia
“The whole two weeks was a beautiful, fun, rewarding experience. I often find myself wishing to be back.”
Alice W, Childcare and Community Work in Ghana
“I really did feel like my volunteering in Kenya had a small impact on something greater, but I would be so happy if the impact I made was even a tiny fraction as big as the impact Kenya had on me.”
