"I just wanted to say thank you so much for everything… Your detailed emails are so amazing to read and the highlight of our evenings here in Atlanta, Georgia! I know it is no small undertaking to have all these kids and be managing a trip like this. We are truly grateful TFT has helped Henry have such an amazing experience! I can tell that he is growing in so many ways from this experience and loving it all. Anyway, just wanted to say a big thank you as you have your last few days. Thanks again for everything we so appreciate you and the rest of the team!!"
"Thank you so much for yet another update on what appears and sounds like has been an amazing trip. You and your team have made this quite an experience for our son Lucas on his first trip on his own. We love following the amazing pictures that are posted each day and hearing more about the many activities and places the group got to visit via your emails. We know Lucas is having a great time since we barely get to hear back from him, which means he’s been kept busy and enjoying his time with the group."

"Finding your program was a gift! It is the BEST opportunity out there for children to travel the world with like-minded peers & reasonable responsible and fun-loving young adults who want to go and explore these incredible cultures and countries. I appreciated how clear you made it that kids can come without friends and a willingness to make new friends. The trip had it all… adventure, history, independence, amazing people, great food, and beautiful lodging all while keeping mom and dad at home informed and feeling like all is well with their child as they grow and experience this incredible gift of grace. I am very grateful for you all and the HUGE team that makes this program work so smoothly. Thank you tons and tons. Travel on and keep up the great work!!!"
"My daughter was really happy with the trip. She got to see not just new things and people, but have some real work and educational experience. She came out of it really positive and proud of herself for spending time alone and navigating life without a parent. Thank you for planning all the details and taking care of her. It was great!"

"Zoe had a wonderful time in Costa Rica. She enjoyed the activities, especially sharing this journey with her long time friend. Zoe has made lifelong friends with her fellow 2023 CR teen travelers. There was a perfect balance of activities vs free time. She enjoyed the flexibility of the suggested schedule. As a parent, I believe the CR staff did an AMAZING job with daily photos and recap. Even if I didn’t get a chance to connect with my teen each day, the trip leaders ALWAYS posted photos, emailed a recap and provided the next days agenda."
"TFT was a fantastic experience for our son in every part of the process. He had a life-changing, super fun trip. It was filled with a variety of active and cultural activities at a great pace. The group of kids as well as the leaders were fantastic. The communication from TFT leading up to the trip was thorough and easy. The travel itself was seamless - he was able to travel to and from the meeting group spot by himself without difficulty. There was regular communication from the leaders during the trip as well. There is nothing that was missing nor would we have changed. Thank you TFT!"
"Adam had a spectacular time on his travel for teens journey to Alaska. He appreciated the diversity of activities and the adventures as well as traveling within the state. He was very impressed with his guides and had a real growth experience with you. I appreciate everything you did to carefully plan out the experiences."
"I have to say how impressed I am with this group…it’s so large and yet truly feels like a tight knit family!! We have had Tim’s older sisters on these trips in the past and they've all been amazing. Between the detailed and fun updates, and the amazing pictures…I really feel as though I’m experiencing the whole thing with you all. I cannot thank you and the other leaders enough and seeing all the smiles makes me smile too."

"A most sincere thank you for providing us with such vivid descriptions of this awesome trip. My husband and I look forward to each evening's email to get the lowdown on how the Spanish journey is progressing. Selina is enjoying the experience tremendously---not only has she told us so but we know this to be true as her messages home are few and far between (exactly what we were hoping for, that she be present and in the moment where she is). Thank you again for the pix and daily updates and wishing everyone safe and happy travels!!!"
"Amaya went to Costa Rica with another program two years ago and I can honestly say TFT is crushing the competition! From the time Amaya arrived (traveling alone) to the accommodations, caliber of staff, and activities, we were very impressed! TFT has provided far more activities than the competition and has far better communication with parents! I absolutely love the daily updates and photos! Not only is it informative and personal, but it gives me my own little escape from the monotony of my work world!"
"I really enjoyed reading your daily reports detailing all of the amazing and wonderful activities that this group did, and I shared each update with our family and friends. We were all so thrilled (and slightly envious!) to read about each day's adventures and to see all the great photos of these kids... what a happy and fun-looking bunch! I am sure they have all learned so much from this experience.. I know that for Ariel it has been transformative, and a dream come true."
"The trip sounds like it has been absolutely amazing and you and the team have navigated any hiccups with ease! I am so thankful/grateful for these daily play-by-play emails and know that Ella is having THE BEST time and is also well taken care of. For that, we couldn't be more grateful. I hope you are enjoying the journey just as much. There is nothing I can do to repay you for these memories and nothing short I can say for just how much this means to us and Ella. THANK YOU!"
