I did the come with nothing program, three weeks with total strangers in rural villages. Best 3 weeks of my life! Rustic Pathways made me feel comfortable and safe throughout the whole trip, and I'Ve only been home for a week but I'm already searching for programs for next summer. I would recommend doing a trip through Rustic to anyone interested in having an new adventure.

Rustic Pathways change my life! Every person I met, both in the Rustic group and in the villages we visited, made me reflect on my life and how I can be a happier person. My trip balanced the perfect amount of fun and service and I regret nothing. I connected immediately with everyone in the group and I am so happy I went!

Rustic Pathways goal is a big one but each summer they continue to achieve success within the communities and the youth. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone.

16 year old daughter had a wonderful experience. Staff was helpful during travel delays and in the actual program I have no complaints. She came home a more enlightened person about the world missing her new friends but happy to be back in her air conditioned house.

This was an incredible experience for my daughter! She signed up for the Fiji program- not knowing anyone on her trip. She was a little nervous at first but became great friends with ever person in her group- saying that with the help of the wonderful team leaders the group worked together beautifully. This trip opened her eyes to life on a global scale and the reward of community involvement... and as if that were not enough- she jumped out of a plane on the last day and now says she knows she can overcome any fears she will ever have!

When I was on my way to my airport at the beginning of July I was having so many doubts. When I arrived in Newark by myself I was scared to meet and talk to new people. Yet, it was so easy with my leaders’ being so kind and outgoing, that it made all of us the same way. I would never change this trip for the world. Thanks to Rustic Pathways I have siblings from all over the US, Canada, Lebanon, and Switzerland.

My trip to Costa Rica was amazing. I met so many great people and we had very fun activities during the week. Learning about conservation was eye opening and I have already started to change my habits for the better!

I had an amazing time on my trip to New Orleans. The trip allowed me to experience the unique culture of the city and do my part to support it. Building houses was difficult but rewarding and it was great to see the positive impact it had on the society. Additionally, after my flight back home to New York had to turn around, the trip leaders helped me find a new flight and made my extra night a great one.
