CALIFORNIA AGOURA HILLS Both our girls loved their Westcoast Connection tours. Our 12 year old can’t wait till it’s his turn! Thanks for giving our kids such a fabulous and memorable experience. Alaska was amazing, our service partners incredible, and leaders the best! This was by far the best summer of my life. ALAMEDA Monte really enjoyed the program and his Spanish improved. He loved Machu Picchu and the Amazon Jungle. He had a great time and made a lot of new friends. In fact, I took him to NYC a few weeks ago and 6 of his fellow travelers in the surrounding area met up and spent the afternoon together. I’d be happy to recommend it to anyone. I’m just sorry I didn’t discover you when he was younger. Bruce Krohn BELVEDERE Josh said that David was an amazing Director. From Josh, 'his excitement and passion for leading us through Spain taught us how to experience culture, and so much more. Dave is a great guy. Robin & Daniel Cerf The skiing was excellent. I really improved because of the great instruction. The kids and counselors were awesome.Josh Cerf

Scott had a great time on the trip. Will had a fantastic European trip which was enhanced by the great leadership and companionship of your counselors. He loved the well balanced schedule of sightseeing in major cities and then the quieter visits to small towns and beach resorts. Your inclusion of snowboarding, swimming, hiking, etc gave another dimension that young people really appreciate. We can’t thank the office staff and counselors enough for all their hard work that makes a trip like this so rewarding. Will’s e-mails reflected his excitement. Both of our sons got so much out of their European Experience. We’re sure you have inspired Will to take more languages and to travel whenever possible. Thank you all so much.

I would certainly send Chandler on another trip with your organziation. Nadine Macaluso McKINLEYVILLE This is Sydney's second trip with Westcoast Connection.
