First Abroad has been so dependable! I booked my trip with First Abroad and they have been nothing but helpful since that has happened, answering any questions I have quickly and thoroughly and I would recommend this company to anybody!

Extremely helpful best program out there. I love this program, I'm headed out to Australia in a couple months and have extreme jitters, so much so that I was on the verge of an anxiety attack. In the middle of this I emailed my trip coordinator, (Leah is amazing guys!) with some questions and she was on top of it for me. Easing many of my fears that were causing my panic. I am still super excited and can't wait to see what's in store for me when I arrive. I'm extremely thankful that I found this program, I've been looking for a long while now to go abroad. First Abroad has helped me obtain that and for that I will always recommend them to anyone.

What a breeze! I cannot thank First Abroad enough for helping me coordinate my trip to Australia! After reading all of the positive reviews about FirstAbroad, I decided to choose this company and I am happy I did! No regrets whatsoever. Not only was the whole process cut out for me but the customer service is exceptional! Leah, my Travel Services Coordinator, was very detailed and addressed all of my questions and concerns promptly. I couldn't have gone on this trip without her! Thank you FirstAbroad.

glad I booked through them My only comment would be to inform people about the whole tour rather than just one week out of 3. Might have paid a little more for the whole package.

Orphanage volunteer: Made the process smooth and easy The thing I appreciated the most about First Abroad was how available the staff made themselves to answer my questions about my trip to Tanzania. I was never a pest or being inconvenient. There was no question that was too silly and I could never ask enough. I always got a timely, friendly and helpful response. And the enthusiasm with which they delivered it (not to mention the enthusiasm simply shared over my trip) made me feel supported through the entire process. Even after the US office I was working with closed and all contact moved to the UK (a move which left me feeling nervous and apprehensive) the transition proved seamless. My only quibble would be that some of the information provided to me about my volunteer service project was outdated. One of the orphanages I hoped to volunteer at had shut down, and another had moved. The information about being able to access money also made it seem like it would be much more challenging than it was. Overall, I would say that the packets sent out to volunteers could bear freshening up periodically to avoid panic (reading it made me feel like I'd be walking into an endless swarm of mosquitoes and blackouts with severely limited access to any funds despite the suggestion not to carry any on me) and frustration upon arrival onsite. But I couldn't be more pleased with the quality of the staff and their passion for the work they do.
