Teen Summers

Sport & Competition

Picture your teen soaking in Centre Court vibes at Wimbledon, then testing their own backhand on historic grass and clay courts. Sport-focused teen travel programs weave training clinics with friendly tournaments across England, the Netherlands, Spain, or Italy. Travel days become cultural field trips—think canal rides in Utrecht or tapas in Barcelona—so budding athletes flex both their competitive spirit and their worldliness.

Highland Adventure

If your teen’s heart races at the phrase “wild Scotland,” an outdoor adventure option delivers. Days are spent trekking Ben Lomond or the Cairngorms, paddling the Great Glen Way, canyoning icy rivers, and counting constellations free of city glare. Some itineraries run a lean 16 days; others stretch past three weeks for deeper backcountry immersion. A highlight? Catching the steam train that rumbles over the Glenfinnan Viaduct—yes, the one from the Harry Potter films.

STEM & Innovation

London’s science museums, university labs, and buzzing tech corridors give STEM-minded teens front-row seats to innovation. Programs pair hands-on workshops—robotics, biomedical engineering, sustainability design—with field visits to research institutes, then hop the Channel for complementary sessions in Paris or Berlin. A capstone team challenge lets students prototype solutions to global problems, gaining both résumé sparkle and real-world skills.

Classic Grand Tour

Sometimes teens want a bit of everything: theater, Eiffel Tower selfies, Swiss alpine thrills, Rome’s ancient ruins, and that first taste of independent travel. Classic Europe loops begin in London for icebreakers, then cruise by rail or coach through Paris, the Alps, and Italy’s iconic cities. White-water rafting, skiing, and postcard-worthy beaches keep the adrenaline rolling between museum days. Trips span 17 to 30 days, making them ideal for rising juniors and seniors ready for a longer haul.

Service & Cultural Exchange

Service-learning tracks focus on small Scottish or Welsh communities, where teens roll up sleeves on environmental restoration, historic preservation, or youth outreach. Evenings bring ceilidh dancing, storytelling with locals, and hearty farm-to-table meals. By trip’s end, participants leave tangible improvements behind—and depart with a broadened sense of global citizenship.
