But know tons of people who have gone all over with them and have never heard a bad review. I think DS2 will stick with going with them most summers through high school and add language or service components as he gets older. He has talked about wanting to work for them in college. Their language/hiking trips are excellent. We have friends whose kids did Chamonix language and hiking and loved it. I wanted mine to do Pyrenees and Spanish but this year they switched their Spanish trip to Costa Rica (for obvious Covid/travel reasons). I'm hoping the Pyrenees trip comes back in the future because that trip would be super easy to do while we are over in Portugal.
Thanks for the tip, they look amazing, especially the language trips.
