Not worth the price Many things that were done throughout this program were available for free from the City of from our Wake Up! Hostel

Gap Year to Australia Leah was extremely helpful during my whole process of going abroad. She was quick to answer all my questions, to the extent that she would always respond with an email within 24 hours. I was so appreciative of this because sometimes I was stressed about visas, doctors appointments, and other requirements. I found that First Abroad allowed me to travel, earn some money, and have experience in a school, all in one. Doing this program was one of the best decisions I've made. Thank you Leah!

Comprehensive, seamless, and easy! Leah has been awesome from the beginning. I had a bit of an atypical journey here, and she has accommodated me very well…so easy to work with. She's walked me through every step of the way and I am certainly enjoying my time in Thailand. Can't wait for more!

A fantastically worthwhile volunteer project - lots of kitten cuddles too! I spent a month at this amazing Wildlife Sanctuary in South Africa that I found through First Abroad's website. Naturally I was worried about going, it was my first trip away without my family and I was planning on doing it completely alone.. eek! Thankfully First Abroad were so welcoming and made me feel really at ease.. apparently lots of people were as nervous as I was (although I think that's just them being polite) They put up with my endless questions and prepared me so well before I went away. I found the info in my online account really helpful as well, especially the Kit List as I had no idea what to take with me! The Sanctuary itself was a wonderful experience, exactly what I was after. A really hands-on project with a huge variety of weird and wonderful animals that you're able to get up close and personal with. I was even lucky enough to hand rear a Serval Kitten (google them, THEY'RE SO CUTE!) I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. Was the best experience of my life!

My last-minute planning savior from insanity. I planned my trip through first abroad only a month in advance and the trip I would have preferred to go on was already booked and they sent me many alternatives that were almost identical for me to go on. They responded very quickly and were very friendly. My trip was amazing and I didnt run into any problems. Well worth the money and would recommend to anybody.
