Camp Leaders Reviews 663

Camp leaders were so helpful with every step of the application process. I was ringing a few times a week asking a million and one questions as I was so nervous but they were always patient and willling to help every time

Camp Leaders supported me through the process of my J1 visa and getting over to America and back. They made the process easy for me to understand and they always answered the phone when I had any questions or concerns. They made me feel very supported and looked after during my time there, as I knew if I had any problems they would help me! Jack was an absolutely superb guy to talk to and really helped me. I am returning to camp in 2025, and I have no doubt they will be as excellent, if not even more excellent, than this year. Thanks CL!

always felt supported with camp
leaders, the process last year was so easy and this year it is just as good. helped me find my second home and i have recommended it to many of my friends who have also wanted to do camp. will definitely be using for the next few years<3

Camp Leaders has always been super reliable to work with, they are constantly super quick to respond to any queries I've had in the years I've used them, and have always been incredibly helpful

Great experience from start to finish. The website is great to use, and so is the customer service!

Really good support overall! Would really recommend! Quick replies and help is always there if you need! Pretty straight forward application and all the hard work is done for you!

I have had an amazing experience with camp leaders for the last two years of going to camp with them. They are really helpful with any questions that may come up and always answer quickly when you try to get in touch with them!

Helped me sort my visa out even though I was travelling and made the whole experience super smooth and easy!

I have been to the US with camp leaders for 3 summers each time the help I have received is invaluable. Despite my past experience with the programme I always had questions which were never treated ad unimportant and were responded to promptly via both email and telephone.
This experience has been life changing and was a huge leap so having support before, during and after the programme is vital. I will always be grateful for the summers I have experienced and the people I have met.

Very helpful throughout the whole process. No job like it. Highly recommend

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Camp Leaders clearly know their stuff and are always so helpful. They always answer any questions I’ve had, and are super friendly in doing so.

Camp is genuinely life changing, I would recommend to anyone who is feeling hesitant, to speak to anyone at Camp Leaders. All their staff have so much experience in the world of camp, and they are so passionate!

I cannot recommend camp leaders enough. They were so helpful throughout the whole process, answered all questions that I had and made the process extremely easy and straightforward. I used them five times and never had any issues whatsoever. The staff were exceptional, pleasant and friendly. 10/10.

great experience connected me with a camp that genuinely changed my life for the better I'm committed to go back to the same camp for my 3rd year, very helpful you can phone in and ask any question you like even if you feel silly asking it they'll help you out and spend all the time you need to figure it out

From the beginning this was my first ever time going to an American summer camp and it was a confusing experience to start off with, but the amazing team at camp leaders helped me through everything and made my whole experience smooth and stress free. A special thank you to Meg who was always there to answer any questions I had, especially with this being completely new to me and not knowing what was a stupid question and what wasn’t, she was able to answer all questions and assured nothing was stupid and it’s better to ask than guess.

I couldn’t have asked for any better staff to help me with my preparation to go to America and will 100% be returning and with camp leaders. I would recommend camp leaders to anyone I know who is interested in going to America, they are all amazing and wonderful people who are always ready to help.

That “Rachel Ring" review is basically exactly what happened to me back in June 2012. I had to pay camp leaders £1015.00 due to not completing my contract. I was dismissed by Camp Caribou because, after 4 days, in a nutshell, Camp Caribou staff were incredibly lazy in doing the due diligence and didn't bother even interviewing me, and the dialogue I had was virtually nonexistent as well as their job description or requirements before and after I departed, I remember vividly they didn’t even pick me from the Logan airport on time they showed up 9 hours later. Because I paid the "Admin" fee of around £555.00, I was obligated to attend camp. When I returned to the UK, I didn't hear from camp leaders for about two months, and then they sent an invoice that had to be paid in 14 days, I remember I had to deal with a mouthy individual name Pete Hanbury at some point he argued it was all my fault and I embellished my application.

US camps have a massive labour shortage due to US workers paying huge college tuition fees who would rather obtain a career elsewhere or internship after college. Then work at summer camps.

Camp leaders and the rest of placement agencies have vested interest in placing participants and obtaining their placement fee, that why show up universities job fairs.

Any advice to anyone interested in applying? Don't bother! 

By far the greatest thing I've ever done in my life!! What started out as a 'once in a lifetime opportunity' turned into 5 summers and I would keep going back to camp forever if I could. Camp Leaders were very supportive and helpful the whole time and super friendly.

Staff were really good, they gave me a lot of support and helped me find the right camp. Highly recommend.

Camp leaders have been amazing! Everything is laid out very clearly and whenever I have a question about anything I ring them and they are happy to talk me through it. They have made the whole process so much easier. Thank you!
