BELVEDERE

The skiing was excellent. I really improved because of the great instruction. The kids and counselors were awesome.
Josh Cerf

We knew this would be a great trip for Josh after speaking a few times with Symon. His voice speaks with such enthusiasm. Josh had an incredible trip. Everything was well organized, he made new friends, had great role models (the leaders) and his skiing has improved tremendously. We loved that we could talk with him occasionally during the trip. It is such a pleasure as a parent to talk with your child and they are having such a fabulous time. We look forward to more summers together. Thanks.

BURBANK

We think your organization is wonderful!  We were a little nervous for Jason, going on this trip, not knowing a soul.  He shares stories about the adventure with all his new ‘friends’.  This was a growing experience for our entire family.  Thank you for giving him such wonderful memories.

ENCINO

Every camper builds special, unique, and strong relationships with the staff and other campers.  I made so many new friends from all over the US and Canada.  This was a life-changing experience and I got to see so many places that I would've probably never gotten the opportunity to see if it weren't for Westcoast.  This trip helped me become more mature and independent.  I grew up along the way without even realizing it.  I will never forget this amazing experience! Thanks WCC!

Alexa Ottenstein

The places we've traveled to and the friendships we've made will remain in our hearts forever.

Jillian Davine

Jordan had a great time! He came home from his trip with lots of energy and full of stories. He really had a great time and we appreciate all the obvious love and attention that was given to him. This trip was a wonderful experience. Many thanks again.
Susan & Steven Richlin

I like the variety of activities- recreational & cultural. Kyle especially loved seeing the museums. Your tour combines freedom & supervision quite well! Just right for 18 year olds! Kyle enjoyed meeting kids from all over the country & Canada & even Aruba. It was definitely a worthwhile trip that he’ll remember forever!

Abby Sherkow

Based on Abby’s comments it’s clear that she had the time of her life. This was our second experience with Westcoast Connection when our son Jacob traveled with you 5 years ago and as great as his experience with you was, this was even better!
Randi Sunshine & Dan Sherkow

Scott had a great time on the trip.
Greg Lawrence

Will had a fantastic European trip which was enhanced by the great leadership and companionship of your counselors. He loved the well balanced schedule of sightseeing in major cities and then the quieter visits to small towns and beach resorts. Your inclusion of snowboarding, swimming, hiking, etc gave another dimension that young people really appreciate. We can’t thank the office staff and counselors enough for all their hard work that makes a trip like this so rewarding. Will’s e-mails reflected his excitement. Both of our sons got so much out of their European Experience. We’re sure you have inspired Will to take more languages and to travel whenever possible. Thank you all so much.

I loved all the activities so much. No one will ever understand what an unbelievable tour I had except my trip friends.

Thanks for leaving me speechless!

“The staff did a fabulous job controlling 42 campers that are teenagers. The staff was personable and responsible and should be commended on a job well done. We think that you should have a camp for parents! Thanks for making Warren’s summer a memorable, once in a lifetime trip. He will be talking about this for years to come and already speaks to the friends he’s made. We hope he’ll be taking another trip with Westcoast Connection soon.”

We appreciated your introduction letter. You certainly have done your homework! Your entire organization is highly developed & thorough. You have thought of everything to prepare campers and parents. Your emphasis on group dynamics & mixing the kids up to get to know each other is an excellent idea! Halley had an absolutely wonderful, joyful, esteem building & safe time. Thank you so very much! Again, this was a summer of a lifetime. I hope she chooses another trip with WCC next summer!

WOODLAND HILLS

Our tour director was amazing. The whole WCC staff was great! I had the time of my life on Westcoast Connection. The relationships I made surpassed any relationship made at home. The staff was spectacular and at the airport I noticed tears in their eyes, because they weren’t thought of as staff, but friends. I had the best summer ever on Westcoast Connection.
David Leeds

The Tour Director Ari was fantastic and accommodated our California schedule. It was a great experience for David—it will last him a lifetime.
