FLORIDA ALTAMONTE SPRINGS This trip has changed me forever. I have seen things and done things I never thought I'd do. I love South Africa and I will definitely be back! I want to come back next summer and work at the same school that we worked with on the trip. After this program, I'm 100% sure that I want to be a zoologist and I know that I will come back to help fight poverty in Africa. Audrey Cohen AVENTURA This trip was a lot of fun and I loved the people I met. I have become more open to new experiences such as meeting new people and being exposed to the Costa Rican culture. Matthew Seif
This was Matt's second summer with Westcoast, and he really enjoyed everything about the trip. Thanks for everything, looking forward to next summer and eventually his younger brother going as well. Lisa & Evan Seif We were able to follow the highlights of Elexis’ trip and at the same time watch the pictures of the entire group over the internet. It was an amazing opportunity to re-live her experience as the trip went along. The communication with your main office was always quick. We were able to find a dedicated staff that became “the immediate family” away from home. The trip was a great learning and enrichment experience all in one. BAL HARBOUR The staff was amazing. They didn't only make great activities but they were also our friends, and made sure we were having the best summer we could have. Tanai Milgram BAY HARBOR ISLAND My son Jason had the time of his life. He said that “everyone was nice to everyone” – that says it all. Thank you for letting Jason have a fabulous summer experience. BOCA RATON
Our director Brad was fair, hilarious and flexible. The trip was great! I had the most amazing summer. The tour was the perfect trip to experience adventure, meet friends, and explore so many places and activities that you would have never imagined. I never thought I could make so many friends and become close with so many people in a matter of days. Thank you so much for making Byrne's summer the best ever. He made so many great friends in different places and experienced so much. It was a wonderful experience for him!! Daniel is my third son traveling with Westcoast Connection. I have and will continue to recommend all of your trips. They are very well thought out and the kids love the pace that is set for them. The whole trip was fun. I made great new friends and the staff was so nice! The experience was much more enriching, interesting and incredible than I expected. I loved my trip. I made some of the best friends, learned about myself, and discovered the world in ways I couldn't have imagined. My director Alexis was amazing and was there for us all the time. This was my second Westcoast Connection / 360° Student Travel trip and I didn't think any summer could be better than the last. Westcoast Connection always manages to outdo itself and provides the best for all its campers in amazing places. I made amazing friends, and saw some of the coolest places. Westcoast really does provide the summer of a lifetime and has changed my life! Rachel had a fabulous time once again on her second trip with Westcoast Connection. We are only as happy as our children, so thanks for making my summer "awesome" as well. This program could not have been more packed with wonderful sights, exciting activities or life-changing experiences. It made a profound impact on my life. The friends I've made and the experiences I've had left will affect me in all of my years to come. Our Director was the most enthusiastic person I've ever met. Hanging out with the kids from La Carpio was my favorite community service project because we got to see how they live and how we can make a difference. It made me realize how fortunate I am, and how doing little things makes a big difference. I thought the balance of service and activities was perfect. Awesome staff, great experience, an experience of a lifetime! The trip was 100 times better than I expected. La Carpio day care was my favorite project, because it changed these kids' lives. This program has helped me to become an all around better person. It was balanced perfectly, I loved this trip! Our leaders were the best ever! I want to go back to Hogar Ama Orphanage, it was life-changing! The Bahia School Project helped boost my Spanish. I loved the immersion project at Sangre as the Ticos we visited were so excited to see us and I actually learned how to make tortillas! My Spanish did improve. After participating in this program, I know more Spanish, have 21 new friends and many more Costa Rican buddies. My life was Pura Vida. Building the taro ponds at the Hawaii Nature Center was my favorite project because we got to see how far we could go as a team. I realized how good community service is for both others and yourself. It was an amazing trip with a great balance of service, adventure, work and fun. It had great sights and things to do go along well with the great feeling you get after community service. This was our son Landon's third trip with you. He had the time of his life. Last year he was on California Dreaming and this summer he was on Eastcoast Encounter and Community Service Hawaii. He had such wonderful experiences and bonded with many new friends. The counselors were wonderful. Thank you for fulfilling all of our expectations. This past summer has been outstanding. I made amazing friends and saw incredible places. You really lived up to its slogan and provided me with the summer of a lifetime! For baseball fans the Major League Madness trip is a must - you get to see the things you have always heard about. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to have a baseball dream-tour planned out for you, all you have to do is follow along. Major League Madness was the trip of lifetime! Go Yanks! The best part was when I met some of the greatest players in the game at the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown! This trip in Spain changed my life. This was my favorite summer ever. Best experience of my life. I LOVE Westcoast & 360. I gained a broader perspective on different cultures and ways of life. I can't even begin to list how participating in this program changed me. I am stronger, smarter and more open-minded. Everyone should be lucky enough to experience something as incredible as this trip. South Africa is AWESOME! This trip has been life-changing. Everything was amazing - the service was eye-opening and fun and I made the best friends in my fellow tour members and in my leaders. There is so much to say that I am at a loss for words. This the most amazing trip that I've been on. I loved refurbishing the school because I felt like I was changing someone else's life. This was an amazing program that had a lot of everything. A life-changing experience. The community service program opened my eyes to what is happening in our world. I met some of the best friends that I hope to keep for years! I had the time of my life! I became family with everyone and the locations we went were breath taking. Westcoast Connection allowed me to make friends from all over the world, and now I can't imagine not having met them. The activities we did opened my eyes to new things that I would have never been able to do if I were home. I enjoyed every activity and made great friends and memories that will last a lifetime. The overall experience was amazing. This trip was amazing. It had a perfect balance of group and free time. I loved it. Our tour director was incredible. He did an outstanding job. He always treated us with respect & listened to us. Our tour leaders were awesome & made this trip great. I have made friendships and memories that will last forever. Last year’s Westcoast Connection trip was the best summer of my life and this was even more fun. Both the director and leaders were amazing. They let us be kids, all the while sticking to the rules. Despite out obvious age differences, the staff became our friends. Jessica’s trip was worth every penny. We are thrilled. This summer has been a wonderful experience for Melanie. She has made some great friends, and had memorable experiences. It was great to hear that everyone got along and that there were no clicks. We thank Westcoast Connection for giving Melanie a fabulous summer. I made a visible difference and constantly had something to do on the Community Service Belize program. The people in the villages came and helped which made the experience 10 times greater. It was fun, rewarding, and I really felt we made a difference. I enjoyed my time while doing it and I feel like a better person. I learned to deal with tough situations. Living in Belize for 3 weeks taught me so much about appreciating other cultures. I pushed myself to new limits and had the time of my life. The combination of fun, service, and friendships with both our campers and Belizeans left lasting impressions. I know I’ve made great memories that will last a lifetime. Dana had a great experience each day on the Northwestern Odyssey. She was so happy she chose this teen tour for exciting summer fun. She saw so many new places and made so many new friends. She could not stop talking about her trip experience. Thank you for all your hard work to make this trip a success. I feel WCC is an excellent Program that both Brett & Melanie thoroughly enjoyed. It is well run and properly supervised. I would be happy to tell that to anyone. Melanie will go again and Brett can’t wait to be a counselor. The Tour Director Lindsay did an amazing job. She is the best tour director ever! She really knows what she’s doing. We were expecting Carly to have a wonderful experience this summer being her second summer with WCC. What we didn’t expect was how wonderful and rewarding it would be. She loved it from the moment she arrived. Her counselors Paul, Danielle, Andrea, Nick, and Blake were amazing. Paul, as Director did an amazing job with these kids. His enthusiasm, sense of humor, and dedication was felt right away. All the counselors had the same qualities, and made the experience for the kids “unforgettable”. Carly had the “best summer of her life” She did not want to leave all her friends, and counselors at the end of the trip. Thank you WCC, Paul, Danielle, Andrea, Nick and Blake for an amazing experience. This trip was the most amazing summer of my life. Thank you for everything. WCC was the best summer of my life, and I met some amazing people. I got to make friends with some people that I would normally not meet at home. Our daughter had the time of her life with a great group of kids. Exactly the experience we wanted for her. Thank you. Courtney had an awesome trip Incredible experience, great time. There was never a time that any request was too much. Always prompt, polite, and caring. Thank you. Thank you for taking good care of the kids. Our daughter Amanda loved the trip and all of you. Thanks again The trip was amazing!! I had the best summer of my life. I have been on 4 teen tours before this and this is by far my best tour and experience ever! Whitney is the best tour leader I have ever experienced! I had an amazing time and thank you so much for everything! Whitney was absolutely amazing. Her enthusiasm and kindness made the trip even more enjoyable. She did a great job. The leaders were really friendly and helpful. They were always there when we needed them. There was a good combination of freedom and group time. I had an amazing summer with Westcoast. I got the incredible experience of touring Europe with friends I will never forget. The tour leaders did an excellent job it was an overall amazing trip. An incredible program. You are able to see how much the staff really cares about us and our happiness. The tour directors were excellent as was the itinerary. The leaders were friendly, helpful knowledgeable & responsible. Lindsey had the best summer ever! She enjoyed the trip so much; she is ready for next year! I had an amazing summer; it was the best time of my life. Can’t wait to do it again! This was the summer of my life! I truly enjoyed every second of it! This was one of the best choices of my life to do Westcoast. This was a great experience for our son Brian - meeting new friends, having responsibility and best of all coming home with a smile on his face. BONITA SPRINGS The tour leaders could not have been more warm, caring, friendly and entertaining. I loved them all. COOPER CITY I had an awesome summer. Thanks for making my summer enjoyable and an unforgettable experience! CORAL GABLES
I loved my director Samantha. Westcoast Connection was a great experience that opened my mind to so many new things and places. I made amazing friends that I will keep forever and never forget. This was an amazing experience. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all the staff. I really appreciate them and had an amazing summer! I met a lot of new friends that I loved hanging out with. I will miss them a lot. I had an amazing time here and would highly recommend this trip for others.
My Trip Director was better than I ever could have imagined, and the other counselors were the best I've ever had. Daniel Levine I have gained so many things from this experience: love, friends, trust and pride. I am so glad I came on this trip. Jenny Kaufler As Michael so aptly described thank you “for the BEST 18 days of my life!” Thank you for a wonderful 18 days for Robert & Michael. We couldn’t have said it better—during every call they seemed like they absolutely had the time of their lives—we fully expect them to maintain the friendships they made for a very long time. I can’t thank everyone at Westcoast Connection enough. Melissa came back with a smile on her face I’d never seen before. Since picking her up at the airport she has not stopped telling stories of all the many fun times she had. You are definitely a first class operation with many competent, caring and fun individuals working together to make it a great experience for parents and children alike. Thank you so very much!! Melissa and I are looking forward to next summer. CORAL SPRINGS
Thank you for the wonderful email and photo updates on Cassidy's trip. We're very grateful and very, very jealous! The staff always kept us happy and having fun! On this trip, I learned a lot about team work and friendship. The Costa Rica Language Immersion program changed my life from the experiences gained with helping children in need to communicating with elderly people in need of some company. This trip was best summer of my life. I made awesome friends who I will keep for life. I had so much fun. The Westcoast staff was very responsive to all of Jonathan's needs. I would absolutely recommend your company to friends and family. Jonathan had traveled with another company and I found Westcoast Connection to be far superior! The trip was very rewarding and was a great experience. It was a summer I'll never forget! We were extremely pleased with everything about this trip. Not having known anyone who went on this particular trip or who travelled with Westcoast, we were naturally a little nervous sending Julia. We were thrilled with the itinerary, the communication from the staff along the way, the quality of activities, and just everything about the tour. Thank you. The balance between language immersion and service was good and I got to do more adventurous activities on this trip than I have in my entire life! This summer was amazing and I will never forget it! This is my second summer with Westcoast Connection and I honestly did not think it could surpass the excitement of my first summer. I made friendships to last a lifetime and memories I am truly grateful for. Thanks Westcoast!
I didn't expect so many amazing activities! My Spanish definitely improved! Now I can speak more Spanish and I can hold a conversation. This program has made me more open to new experiences and more interested in learning about other cultures. Julie O'Connor I loved the tour so much. We became family. Westcoast put together a fantastic program. I hope to do a 3rd summer in a row! I love it so much. Jacob Mandell Lindsay had an awesome experience and made some forever friendships. Westcoast Connection helped her realize what a beautiful country we live in! Thanks for giving her a summer of a lifetime! WCC has given me the experience of a lifetime. I could not have asked for a better group of people to spend 6 weeks with. It truly was amazing. Thank you for making my summer one to remember for the rest of my life! Eric had a wonderful time! WCC was absolutely great before, during and after the trip. His only complaint was that time went by too fast. Can you figure out a way to slow down time? Thanks for everything! Danielle had the most incredible time of her life! You guys were awesome from the beginning. Your brochures helped us to get a really good feel of what WCC is about and to help see how organized you are. Most of all, you made us feel very comfortable in having our daughter go across the country with a group of people she didn't know, and gave us a sense of security that she would be safe and taken care of. The experience will last with her forever. The confidence she gained from trying something without knowing anyone else, the incredible friendships she made, and the sights she got to see and experience, are priceless. Feel free to have potential families contact us so we can spread the word. Westcoast gave our daughter an unforgettable summer. She was high on a mountain of spirit from the moment she arrived and her counselors met her. The ratio of counselors to campers is comforting to any parent. The friends Alex made were true life-long buddies that were already planning a reunion just days after they had left each other. Her pictures are amazing! The scenery was breathtaking and the smiles on all of the campers were broad and abundant. From the get-go, Westcoast has been informative, responsive and very helpful with all of the information. Our questions were answered within a 24 hour period (if that long). The attentiveness, prior to the tour, was superior as was the attention and counselor ratio on the tour. We cannot wait to send Alex overseas next summer. To any parent we say “Westcoast can offer your child a pinnacle of a summer experience.” Thanks Ira, you are top-notch. The Odyssey was absolutely incredible! Nobody could’ve made this a better experience! The tour director and counselors were amazing. No cliques were formed—everybody was friends with everybody. I would DEFINITELY do it again! Thanks! My leaders were amazing. They had so much fun with us and listened whenever we needed to talk. Before I left for the trip, I was a little nervous. I thought the kids might be too cliquey and the counselors might have babied us. It turned out to be the exact opposite. Thank you for the most amazing summer of my life! When your teen comes home and says ‘this was a lifetime experience, one that I will never forget’ you know she had a terrific time and it is worth every penny you spent to see the looks and animation on her face and here all of her stories. Thanks for giving our child that once in a lifetime experience and making it fun but safe every step of the way. Jordana had an amazing summer. Thank you for doing everything right. The group of kids could not have been better and Jordana loved the staff. We recommend Westcoast without reservation. Thanks for everything. Just a note to inform you of the wonderful time David had traveling with Westcoast Connection this summer. We think he actually had more fun than my older son who traveled with you in 2000! All our worries faded quickly when he phoned to report he was having an “awesome” time on the tour. Thank you for your attentiveness in responding to all of our questions prior to the trip’s departure. I had an amazing time on the tour. I went in not knowing what to expect and I came out not wanting to leave. Thank you for a great summer. Lindsay had the time of her life- she loved everything- thank you for a wonderful experience & hopefully in the future she & her sister can do another one! DAVIE
Rob was such a great director and he made the trip amazing! My tour was the best summer of my life. I made bonds with the other tour members and counselors that will last the rest of my life. DELRAY BEACH I gained many amazing and life-long friends! It's a trip of a lifetime. I saw so many amazing places. It was my best summer ever. Sydney Cohen
Jesse had the time of his life socially and he enjoyed all of the activities. Robin & Stephen Greene Dersh made my summer one that I will never forget. Each day he put a smile on my face. I loved the tour and the staff!! It was amazing!! We like the fact that beside sight seeing, the tour members got to do white water rafting, a cooking class, a little of everything. This summer has been so amazing. I have made so many best friends. I highly recommend Westcoast Connection to anyone who wants to have the best summer of their lives. FORT LAUDERDALE Westcoast Connection was the best experience of my life! I will always remember these memories. I made so many friends and would do the trip again in a second. We felt like this trip was well supervised and the communication between the tours and families was excellent. We would definitely recommend any trip organized by Westcoast Connection. Our daughter Lissy had a great time! Cayleigh the Tour Director is Amazing It was a great trip and I will never forget it! I made friendships that will last a lifetime! The trip was the best teen program I have ever been on! FORT MYERS I had the summer of a lifetime. Everything was great. The staff was skilled at trying to make every aspect of the trip amazing. Deanna had a fantastic summer. She enjoyed all aspects of the trip. It was wonderful to be able to hear from her during the trip and enjoy her enthusiasm. We would recommend this trip. Alana had a wonderful time on her Hawaii trip! Thank you for helping Alana have a terrific summer! I had an amazing time in Europe! I think that Westcoast gave us a perfect amount of freedom. The trip was incredible and gave me independence. I thought that the staff was amazing, especially Warren, he made my summer. GOLDEN BEACH The attention we received from you and the help Michael received far surpassed any expectations we had. We would feel very comfortable in sending any of my children on trips with you again. GULFPORT It was great, I loved it HEATHROW Moriah felt this was the best summer program she has ever participated in. She made wonderful friends with whom we know she will keep in contact. We liked the fact that she met kids from many different locations. The program is excellent - A+!! Thanks for providing our daughter with such great memories. HIGHLAND BEACH Lindsay the Tour Director was fantastic. She made it her job for everyone to have an excellent and fun time. Tour leaders Mike, Jon, Laura, and Karen were amazing. They connected with the group and made it fun. Warren was amazing! The best director I’ve had in my teen tour history. HILLSBORO BEACH Zack was so happy and said he could never surpass this trip! He loved Dersh too! We are so happy for him! Martine & Craig Zinn HOLLYWOOD Best summer of my life! My first summer on Westcoast was fun, but I had my doubts about doing another tour. This summer was one of the best of my life and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a WCC to anyone. Ross had an excellent time. This was his 2nd WCC trip and he finds them well run with great groups of kids. The trips are getting better with each story. I would like to thank you for such a wonderful summer and I’d like to say that the counselors on my trip were AMAZING and truly made the trip what it was. Thanks so much. JACKSONVILLE I had a great time. Amy was an awesome tour director. Everyone was very responsible, yet knew how to have tons of fun. Adam had a great summer! He has been involved in 3 summer trips with WCC (California, Europe, Australia) and has had a wonderful time on all of them. Hopefully he’ll join an “on tour” program next year. JUNO BEACH Jamie had a wonderful experience! Thanks for the well planned adventure and counselors who enjoyed working with teens and personally getting to know them on an individual basis. I thought my trip was absolutely amazing & the Tour Directors were awesome. I definitely had the time of my life. JUPITER Jake had a great experience, learned a lot and loved the locations of the trip-especially camping in the parks. He's already bargaining for Europe next year. Thanks again. Doris & Alan Sadowsky Allen had an incredible time and was sad to leave his friends. Thanks for all. LAKE WORTH Our son, Dak, a typical “Dunno”-answering male teen hasn’t shut up since his return home from his trip. He connected with all the other kids, enjoyed the camaraderie, howled at the characters known as counselors, and can’t wait ‘til the next teen tour – in Europe! This was money well spent. We felt he was safe, restrictions were implemented and thorough and, yet, the fun never stopped. Bus rides were hysterical, fun-filled rides with joyous antics and wonderful memories. He said that even the music, blasting in the mornings (supplied by the counselors), will always bring back memories of his summer. He enjoyed every city, every National Park, everyone on the tour, and all the events. We, as parents, feel fortunate to have been able to provide such an experience for him and couldn’t have been happier with the outcome of the trip. Accolades to Dersh for being the fun-loving friend, support, confidant, and best comedic character around. This tour was the best tour in the world. I had the greatest time. Dersh was the coolest tour director! All the counselors were awesome! This was by far the best summer of my life. The leaders all bent over backwards for us, and made sure we had safe fun. LIGHTHOUSE POINT My group and directors were so kind and we're going to remain friends for life! I came on this trip to learn to speak Spanish and to practice it and I did. I am also more confident in my speaking abilities. Megan Dekok LONGWOOD My Director was awesome! I had an incredible experience and learned a lot. The program was so much fun, the staff was amazing and I made tons of friends. I learned so much about myself. Nicole Zwirn Brett had an incredible summer! He made such great friends and created memories that will last a lifetime! We were very happy with the supervision and all of the counselors. We will definitely consider WCC again for Brett next summer and also for our younger daughter! You know Brett had a wonderful time when he came home telling his 12 year old sister that she has to do this! Thanks for everything! We were delighted to here that Matt had an awesome three weeks with WCC. It’s been three plus weeks since the trip and he’s still talking about highlights and looking forward to a reunion in November. I had an amazing summer and met great people that I will remember forever. The counselors were outstanding. I loved this summer more than anything and I thank everyone for the summer of my life. WCC forever! MARCO ISLAND
This trip was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone interested in doing a community service and adventure program. Kora Johnson MIAMI The language instruction was good and the community service was amazing! This trip has helped me to appreciate what I have. My community service program in Africa was a great experience that I will always remember. It has helped me learn to be more aware of disadvantages others face. Experience of a lifetime for Andrew. He told us that his most memorable part of the trip was the time spent helping out in the school in South Africa. He loved working with the children. Thanks to everybody involved at Westcoast Connection! This trip has changed our son Daniel forever. I see the difference in him and he has made life long lasting friendships. The locations we stayed at were great especially Marbella. The beaches were awesome. This trip was a great and a rewarding way to have fun out of your comfort zone, make new friends and learn about yourself! I enjoyed every moment of the trip and I got a lot out of the program - Spanish language, touring and sight-seeing. My Spanish skills improved and I learned a lot of helpful terms. I have seen the world in a whole new way. I enjoyed all the service, classes and touring. Costa Rica is beautiful and I enjoyed every moment! Every activity and sight was worth-while and memorable. Puente de los Anonos was favorite service project. Having long conversations in Spanish class helped improve my Spanish the most. Half day service & half day language with a little bit of adventure mixed in made for a good balance of work and play. It was an amazing trip that I will remember for the rest of my life. Shannon Bush
We do not know how to begin to thank you for the incredible summer you gave Zach. It was more than we could ever have imagined for him, but more importantly, it was more amazing than Zach could have ever envisioned for himself. There were more activities and events than we believe anyone could ever plan, and yet so well organized and so age appropriate. After loving sleep away camp for 5 years, Zach didn't think it got much better than that. You guys exceeded his expectations and ours. As a parent you are as happy as are your children. We knew we made the right decision when we would hear Zach tell us: "I am having the best time."... and "this is the best summer of my life"... and "I have done things I cant believe I am actually doing."..... and the final "I am not ready to come home... we are like family here." There are not enough words to express our thanks and appreciation. Westcoast exceeded every expectation we could have had. Well paced, well-planned trip with wonderful opportunities for the kids to expand their independence but with proper supervision and guidance. It doesn't get much better than this! Zach did not want to leave! Get ready for our twins in a couple of years! Nadine & Jonathan Fialkow
Such a fantastic experience. Jacob made wonderful friends and had an amazing time. Your staff was very accommodating to our needs. We will definitely recommend Westcoast to our friends and family and will consider your programs for future summers for Jacob and our younger children. Thank you! Laura & Daniel Koffsky Jessica and Brittany really enjoyed the amazing trip. They loved the hotels, food and the entire itinerary. Thanks again... we look forward to many more trips with you in the summers to come. Traci & Alan Waserstein We love your company and we will recommend you highly, Rosy & Alfredo Bild Excellent trip. My son had two wonderful summers. I would highly recommend WCC to anyone. On each trip he has grown as a person and has enjoyed all that he has seen and done. Jeremy is an excellent director. Sebastian has nothing but good comments about Jeremy. Thank you! Without a doubt, the best trip of my life. Our director Lindsey was an incredible organizer and friend. It’s shocking how close a group of kids from all over the world can become so close in 3 weeks. The emails from the office were great! Sam had a fantastic time on the tour. Every time we spoke to him he was happy and having fun. It was one of the best summers of my life and I can’t wait to see all of the friends I’ve made again. Robyn had a fantastic time on her trip - a great group of kids and she genuinely liked all of her counselors. Jonathan had a wonderful trip. It was everything and more. Thanks. David had a great time. He came home very happy. He made new friends and had a great experience. This summer was great. I am glad that I got to experience Europe with such fun and caring people. You have a great program! This is such a wonderful experience for all teens. It is amazing how many friends you leave this trip with. I couldn’t have asked for a better summer! Thanks WCC! NAPLES I had so much fun! The friends I made became as close, if not closer, than the ones at home that I‘ve had my entire life! Brittany just couldn’t quit talking about all the wonderful friends she made and how much fun she had. It surpassed our expectations! Brittany is looking forward to next year! NORTH MIAMI BEACH
Westcoast Connection was so fun! I made 40 new friends from all over America and Canada. I went to camp for seven years and camp doesn't even begin to compare to my summer with Westcoast. It was absolutely amazing and a trip I will never forget! Jordyn Katz This summer I gained many things. I got to explore all along the west coast with friends who turned into family to me. I made strong bonds, and my memories will last forever and will never fade. I strongly suggest this trip for anyone who is interested in having a summer of a lifetime. Liza Pulto I had an amazing time in Europe this summer. The staff couldn’t have been better. I had an amazing trip with some amazing people. I’ll cherish the memories forever. Alyssa came home very excited about her European experience. She made some wonderful new friends and spoke of some wonderful new experiences with the sights she saw. Europe never could have such high results without Westcoast Connection staff. Thank you so much for giving our daughter an unforgettable experience. Our daughter Elyse had the most incredible time. She loved everything about the trip. Thank you! Good customer service, good organization, excellent program. PALM BEACH
Ryan loved it! Staff, new friends, and places visited. Thanks for the great memories for her! Lisa & Skip Farriss Thank you for Kendall's fantastic summer experience. We appreciate your always prompt responses and all the communication during the trip. WCC is a great place to meet new people, see new places and enjoy different lifestyles. A great summer that I miss already. PALM BEACH GARDENS Tyler's Costa Rica trip was a very positive maturing experience. I would highly recommend Westcoast Connection/360 Student Travel. Thanks for a great summer experience that allowed Tyler to experience how people less fortunate than him live and to appreciate how he can help them. Spencer said that it was the ‘best time of his life’. Everyone got along. We couldn’t have been more satisfied with your staff. Thank you for everything. PALM CITY Lauren had a great time! She did so many fun and interesting things. Westcoast is a great way for teens to travel. We found it to be extremely organized, professional, safety conscious – you guys have your act together! An amazing summer! PALM HARBOR The trip was more fun that I ever expected. I was extremely impressed by the attention to detail and the kindness of the counselors. Your interest in our safety and health made me feel comfortable in participating in all activities. PARKLAND
I made new friends that I will never forget and I had the summer of a lifetime. I went to camp for 7 years and loved it but my Westcoast Connection teen tour was better than all those 7 years put together. Stephanie Kahn Steven had the time of his life....Thank you! Howard Chatoff Keep up the good work. Andrew had the best time and saw a wonderful part of the country and made great friends. We have spoken highly of your company to our friends. Thank you for doing your job so very well. We wanted to thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity WCC afforded our son, Doug, this summer. Most importantly, considering this was Doug’s first solo adventure, your attention to detail & communication with us as parents gave us a tremendous amount of confidence & peace of mind. What a fabulous experience Garrett had! He loved the trip! He thought the kids were great and the supervisors were amazing! Thank you! It’s September and Kathryn is still talking about her trip.
