Very well organised from beginning to end. I had the best time and made memories that will last a lifetime. I would definitely recommend Camps International and if I had the chance to do it again, I would in a heartbeat.

I had an amazing time in Tanzania for my expedition in July 2024. Camps International were very supportive, from the fundraising to the trip itself. I would definitely do this again if I had the chance. I have made friends for life and my confidence is so much better since I've come home.

Whilst my teenage son had a great experience on the whole; deepening skills, developing new ones, giving to others and gaining an understanding of the world, there were a few issues that concerned me. During their planned jungle trek, the guide became lost which added hours onto an already challenging trek. This resulted, apparently, in most of the kids crying and feeling scared. Resilience building, yes, but not the safest way to develop that skill. Additionally, when my partner and I first met the Camps International leader for the trip (at Newcastle airport, the start of the adventure) I was put off by his personality. He came across as self-centred, more interested in talking about himself than answering any of our questions. According to my son and his friends this behaviour continued during their month long trip in Borneo. To add to this, he displayed a misogynistic attitude, totally inappropriate on any level but especially so in front of teenagers. He exclaimed that he, “didn’t think women could do that”, when a female student stated that she helped her Dad with woodwork. The students were shocked by his behaviour and a teacher from their school ( Bedlington Academy, Northumberland) who had accompanied them, made a complaint. The leader denied any accountability so clearly there was no willingness to learn and grow on his side. Not a good role-model for helping teenagers learn and grow themselves. After the trip parents were E-mailed requesting more money for a certificate of attendance. We had already paid almost £4,500 ( not including the cost of kit, spending money and around £500 in vaccination costs ). This seemed ludicrous and as I could not afford to pay yet more, my son has no proof for the future that he has ever been and achieved such remarkable feats.

Extremely well organised from the initial onboarding session to boarding the plane. You are supported by a dedicated team who provided excellent tips on how to fundraise, what to pack and to how to apply for your visa. The trip to Tanzania has been life enhancing, it has opened my eyes up to the world, I got to experience a country through local community projects. This is more than being tourist, this is about giving something back.

Had a good time, camps were overcrowded so not much project work was done by our group. Got Ill/injured a few times and reports sent home to parents were wrong, so parents aren’t fully aware of what’s happened and may not be able to get in touch with children. Didn’t actually meet many or any children in most camps, even though we were told we would and get to talk and play with them. We were told it would be cold at certain points but no one told us it would be winter or that it would be around -10 degrees at night and there weren’t enough blankets for us all because the camps were overcrowded. My group was put straight into the highest camp without any acclimatisation so no one felt brilliant and a few of us even had to leave the camp. Food was lovely for the most part, and so were the few project days we did do.

Hello, Thank you for sharing your feedback about your expedition. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed the food and the project work you were able to take part in, but we’re sorry some aspects of the trip didn’t meet your expectations. Our teams work hard to provide a balanced itinerary, but some activities, like project work or meeting local children, may vary depending on circumstances at the time. We aim to give students meaningful experiences, even if specific activities differ from initial plans due to unforeseen circumstances. Regarding the cold weather, we do highlight the need for layers and suitable sleeping bags in the kit list and pre-departure session. However, we’ll always aim to provide extra blankets if needed. We strive to ensure clear communication with parents and appreciate how important this is. Our Travel Support Team, in country staff and expedition leaders follow a specific line of communication to ensure all information is directed through the correct channels. Thank you for your feedback - it helps us to continually improve. We’re glad you took away some positives from your experience. All the best, The Camps Crew
