Fly across the International Dateline and arrive in the Land Down Under! Our journey to Australia and New Zealand is a TFT favorite, combining adventure with cultural exploration and major travel destinations with little-known gems. In New Zealand, we will experience the country’s famed natural beauty and enjoy a boat cruise on picture-perfect Milford Sound nestled in the mountains. During the cruise, we will keep an eye out for penguins, seals, and even dolphins! We will also take an exhilarating ride on the world’s fastest jet boat zooming through rock canyons.

After New Zealand, we’ll hop on a short flight for the ultimate Australian experience. ...

Volunteering abroad in Australia
by: Bryn Pierce - United StatesProgram: Travel For Teens: Australia and New Zealand ServiceStarting off, I would recommend any TFT trip. They are a very experienced company with staff that are very organized and familiar with the countries that you are visiting. This Australia and New Zealand trip had the perfect amount of volunteering time as well as excursions to have fun with. We had about 20 hours of volunteer service where we helped at a non-profit animal center. Aside from these hours, we would take trips to waterfalls and beaches to relax, but also immerse ourselves into the cu...
Best three weeks ever!
by: Alaina no - United StatesProgram: Travel For Teens: Australia and New Zealand ServiceIn the Summer of 2018, I had the amazing opportunity of traveling to Australia and New Zealand. It was absolutely amazing. I got to do once-in-a-lifetime activities such as scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef and the Sydney Bridge Climb. These are memories that I will never forgot. I had the most amazing counselors and met friends that I still keep in touch with. There was not a day that I did not love. If you have the opportunity to do this, you should, I can guarantee that you will not regr...
I had the best time of my life!
by: Wendy - United StatesProgram: Travel For Teens: Australia and New Zealand ServiceFrom paragliding in New Zealand to snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef of the coast of Australia, I had the best 21 days of my life with Travel for Teens.

The beauty of this foreshadowed the once-in-a-life time experiences I had the privilege of doing on this amazing adventure. The counselors made me feel so at home in places I’ve never been, and the friends I made g...

It has always been a dream of mine to travel to Australia. I have always been fascinated with that country. I decided one year to begin saving up to take myself and eventually, with the help of Travel for Teens, my dream came true.

What inspired me to go abroad was a chance to travel alone and experience personal growth. I also really wanted to travel somewhere where I could be immersed in the culture and try their amazing food.
