Does anyone out there have a kid going on the the school s-trip next March or have any experience with this company. I have signed my child up and I don't want to live to regret it. I have sent an email asking about the initial payment which made no sense to me and what they sent back was an email that did not even answer my question not to mention incredibly back grammar!!!
Thanks.

Your sending your kid here? How much Volunteering do they actually do, looks more like a party

I know someone that is a chaperone for S- trip. Last trip they went to Punta Cana and he was chaperone for about 40-50kids. Their chaperones are also younger ppl. My friend is 25 yrs old. Before this trip he went to Cuba, Mont tremblant and Quebec City. They go in huuuuge groups of over 400 kids at the same time. Hope it helps

Did an S-Trip in Uni. It was basically a big rip-off with terrible accommodations where the person who signed up 10 of their friends got their trip for free. Still has a good time due to the people I was with, but man was the resort a hell hole. Company sounded very scamm-y and recruit-y in their meetings with us too.

Hello,
S-Trip stands for Student Trip (its a grad trip)
Her highschool is planning a trip to Cuba next summer.
IMHO, the cost is a rip off ($1500).

There are organized activities during the trip and I do beleive the 'ADULTS' supervising this are in their early 20's.

My neighbour son went to one last year and said he had alot of fun and it was a great experience.
They were very strict with any drug or alcohol consumption.

Hope this helps.

High price, poor quality resorts, debatable supervision.
