I'm going on an adventure! I'm off to New Zealand in the Fall, and First Abroad has been amazing answering any and all of my questions. Max has been helping me determine that this is the right program for me, and putting my mind at ease by confirming how the First Abroad Program fulfills all my desires and questions. He has answered with facts, and links online to back-up his statements so I know it is true. I booked over the phone with him and it was easy, quick, and the people are just excited for my trip as I am. The program coordinator has now sent me lots of helpful information on the itinerary, visa application, transportation, etc. As far as the booking process and build-up for the trip has gone so far, I would recommend others to look into doing this program.

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.

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.

First Abroad is DA BOMB I've been in contact with First Abroad for the past 8 months in regards to the AbsoluteOz program and they have been nothing but helpful and supportive. They have guided me through every step I've taken and made this process as easy as possible.

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!
