How to Participate<br />

What’s included<br />

Summer teen travel experiences include all meals,<br />

accommodations, touring activities, and medical<br />

insurance covering non pre-existing conditions. All<br />

programs in Israel, Europe and Africa include a round<br />

trip flight from New York City as part of the core tuition.<br />

<strong>BBYO</strong> <strong>Passport</strong> trips are staffed by a combination of<br />

licensed professionals and young adult leaders. Our<br />

teen-to-staff ratio is typically eight-to-one. Most groups<br />

range in size from 25 to 40 teens, and participants are<br />

assigned to age appropriate groups wherever possible.<br />
