Camp America

I found that people were very supportive, nice and always willing to listen and/or understand what I was saying and needed help with.

Afraid to start, ready to go

At first, I was really scared because I had never traveled in my life. But when I heard about this opportunity, it immediately caught my attention. Deciding to join has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Now I have all my documents ready, and I’m just one week away from going to experience what I know will be the best summer of my life.

What made my experience amazing was all the support I received from the Camp America team from the very beginning. You can tell they are experts in what they do, and they never left me alone during the process. They were always there to guide me and help me every step of the way.

A life changing experience !!!

I attended Camp for two summers in 2018&2019 and it was the experience of a lifetime! I made lifelong friends and bonds, while also learning things about myself and growing my confidence! The camp America staff were extremely helpful every step of the way and the process from applying to getting to camp was seamless! I would have gone back every summer for the rest of my life if I could!

Camp America hidden fees and no support

Camp America was far from the experience I had hoped for, and I feel it's important to share the hidden costs and lack of support. I had to pay over £1200 before even going to America, covering sign-up, travel to the London embassy, a doctor's note, and towards flights and insurance. And, the expenses kept piling up, with a £50 interview fee and numerous other unexpected costs.
I thought the financial investment would be justified by the experience and the earnings at camp. However, I discovered shortly before leaving that my earnings would barely cover the initial costs. Despite this, I tried to be optimistic, hoping the experience would make it worthwhile. While I enjoyed my time traveling after camp, a real shock came when I was hit with a tax bill of nearly $200 the following April. This process was daunting, and the platform Camp America recommended charged fees just to provide the necessary forms.
Now, a year after returning, I've received another tax letter, which Camp America failed to adequately warn me about and provided no support in navigating the complex and stressful process. When I reached out for help, I was simply told they couldn't assist me. In my opinion, Camp America is not all it’s cracked up to be. If possible, I strongly recommend going directly through a camp to avoid these hidden fees and lack of support.

Resposta da Camp America

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re really sorry to hear that parts of the process felt stressful and didn’t meet your expectations.

We’re always transparent that Camp America is a cultural exchange program rather than a money-making opportunity, and the fees cover visa sponsorship, 24/7 support in the US, and the infrastructure needed to run a regulated J-1 program. All expected costs are outlined during the application process, but we understand that it can still feel like a big investment.

In terms of tax, all J-1 participants are legally required to file US tax paperwork after their program ends. While we’re unable to provide direct tax advice, we do share guidance and recommended services to help make the process easier.

We’re genuinely sorry that this felt overwhelming for you, and we appreciate you sharing your perspective. If you’d like to discuss anything further, please feel free to contact us directly at enquiries@campamerica.co.uk

Flights

Don’t include flights on the way back just from New York City. Had to pay extra

Resposta da Camp America

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for your review. We always aim to be as transparent as possible about our costs, including how our flight packages work. All applicants receive detailed information about flight options, and this is also available on our website and within the Flights tab of your Camp America account.

It sounds like you selected one of our Flexi flight packages, which allows you to choose a different return date or departure location. That added flexibility can sometimes come with additional costs, but we offer this option because it gives participants more freedom to travel — something many people really value, and not all agencies provide.

We’re sorry if anything felt unclear at the time. If you’d like us to walk through the flight options again or clarify anything further, please feel free to email us at enquiries@campamerica.co.uk
and we’ll happily go through it with you.

My son has just been fired from a camp.

My son has just been fired from a camp.

You see the info about being fired and think- that will never happen.

But beware- it does- and all he did was shout at a colleague as a child had been in danger due to her.

What happens? Within hours you are removed from the camp without even a chance to say goodbye.

You do not receive any written evidence of why you have been fired.

Then you are dropped at a hotel with your bags and that’s it. The camp has nothing more to do with you.

Now the reason I have given three stars is that is when camp America step in to help and I have to say they have been wonderful so far.

They have been in touch with my son, helped him to travel to another state and are trying to get him into another camp.

That’s the story so far!

But believe me- you can literally be fired for anything and the camp totally washes their hands of you immediately.

The camp my son said is in such a mess with very poor management; staff being fired; staff leaving or threatening to leave; lots of staff not paid yet; terrible food….but despite all that he said that he did enjoy himself!

I’ve been with camp America since 2019

I’ve been with camp America since 2019! Always been my agency of choice as I go back for my 5th summer in the states. Emails are replied to almost instantly and the staff seem to genuinely care about the program experience. I got hired at a recruitment fair and what a fantastic opportunity to meet loads of camps and get hired on the spot.

Unforgettable summer

I worked at a Girl Scouts summer camp called Camp Favorite on Cape Cod in Massachusetts during the summer of 2024 and had the best time! I have always wanted to have the experience of working at a camp in the States as I’d heard such positive stories from older family members and friends who had done it themselves.

Camp America made it so easy. The online portal is so helpful as you know what stages come next after applying. It also stores your flight information, embassy appointment and placement details all in one place which helps with the process.

My experience at Iroquois Springs

The sense of community, bonds and memories made make the experience invaluable. From the moment you step off the bus till the minute you fly home you’re surrounded by people who you will come to call family. As well as getting the chance to instil your own values in your campers, in turn you will learn things about yourself. My favourite moment is when the campers arrive back at their summer home and you get to reconnect with them after 10 months; very special feeling. After this will follow 2 months of activities, experiences and new things. I have been going for 3 years plus for a reason….

I’ve been to camp for 2 summers now and returning for a third this year with Camp America. They are the best agency and so helpful before, during and after summer. They are so supportive throughout your whole time with them and are always willing to go above and beyond to make your summer the best possible.

I couldn’t imagine signing up for camp with any other agency than Camp America. They’ve been great for my two summers at camp especially when I got poorly in the month travelling after camp and they did everything they could to help and advise me and stayed on the phone / in touch until I got the medical help I needed! Both summers I found the process of getting my visa really easy with Camp Americas clear instructions :)
