I went to Tenerife last summer with air-pro and ended up staying for over 8 months, air pro was a great way to get started, I got on very well with the reps who managed to get me various jobs in the first week, were I took a pr job at Mett bar and worked there until I went home, I absolutely loved all the late night banter and the heavy drinking sessions, I’d do it all again and have kept in touch with lots of people that I met over the summer, 2009 was definitely the best summer of my life and I don’t think I’ll ever top it, thank you air pro

I went with Airpro to Tenerife at the end of July 2009. It was THE best summer of my life and I met some amazing people who I still keep in contact with even now. The reps were lovely and gave you all the advice you needed should you want to party every night or get involved in the working side of things. I am definitely doing something similar this season thanks to an amazing experience with Airpro :)

Southern Sun - Just a quick email to brighten up your day; my name is Gareth Greer and in the summer of 2005 I was part of one of the 'Southern Sun' Treks.

On the first day, travelling from New York to Washington I sat on the minibus next to a girl called Melanie Plevin-Gustar, which to cut a long story short I am pleased to say has recently become my fiance after I proposed in the hills of Tuscany whilst we were travelling around Italy! So I guess a big thank you should be sent to Air-Pro, and everyone who was on our trek!

Atlantic Dream - It's nearly two weeks since I came back from the Atlantic Dream trek and I am still remembering all the great new experiences I had on this tour.

We had Tiffani as our tour guide, who was extremely organised, friendly and helpful at some points it was just like having another trekker with us...

My favourite activity had to be Whitewater rafting... It was amazing and if you're brave enough (like I was) you can get out of the boat and go down some rapids by yourself!

I have made 11 new friends and we're all staying in contact and sharing photo's with the help of Facebook.

My favourite place was New Orleans, it's such an amazing place and friendly too! The night life was the best of course... the bars and clubs put on a real show to bring customers in!

Overall I would have to say this has been the best holiday of my life, so far! And I intend to do another trek next year!

Atlantic Dream - I have just got back from the best two weeks of my life. The Atlantic Dream tour was absoloutely amazing, from the beginning of day one right up until the last minute in Miami. Paul (our Trek leader) was an awesome guy and contributed so much toward our trip being so good. I will never forget my time spent in the US with my group. I miss it so much already.

Atlantic Dream - If you are considering doing the Atlantic Dream trip, I would say: Stop considering and just book the trip because I've had the time of my life. I had an amazing group of people I travelled with and a great tour guide. I came back home last week and all I want is to turn back time. Warning: You will have the biggest post holiday depression ever!

Atlantic Dream - I just finished this trek the day before yesterday, and just wanted to say I had the best two weeks ever :)

Not only was there a fantastic itinerary, our leader (Andy Christensen) was proper awesome too and went out of his way to be funny and friendly and easy to get along with through-out. Obviously best of all was the great people I met who were doing it as well, though - who I hope to see again as soon as is realistically possible!

For anyone considaring this tour I say, quit procrastinating and get it organised - you will love it. Other advice I would add that I wish I had been given pre-tour would also include the following:-

a) Whoever tells you an old-fashioned backpack is the only way to bring your stuff is WRONG! I listened to this and was the only one there with one - which was uber annoying as it meant I had to physically empty my whole bag everytime we set up camp to find anything. Also - there just ain't the room for all you'll have (because lets face it, if you've spent the summer working here as I did you will have accumulated A LOT). My advice is bring a proper suitcase, the big kind u can pull along behind u that u don't mind getting a bit bashed up.

b) Don't waste your first few days being shy, or having incredibley early nights or being hesitant on the bus. I know its weird at first, but I really wish I could have those first 4-ish days back to spend with people whom I now love properly, not awkwardly! So basically, sit around the campfire and chat... possibly with a few beers :p

c) The tents are really easy to put up. REALLY easy!

d) The gateway hotel (Secaucus, NJ) is a bit difficult to get to from NYV - taxi drivers don't like to cross the Lincoln Tunnel due to their being unable to pick anybody up for their return journey in NJ (and they have 2 pay their own fare back). If you do get a driver generous enough to take you you'll have to foot the $8 tunnel toll yourself and the price of the meter doubles once you cross the state line. Worth it if your alone and a bit nervous, not if your with any1 else and can get a train or a bus. The Holiday Inn is rather awkwardly place h/e, so u will need to find a taxi once you get over to take you.

e) Get a cheap sleeping bag from Walmart down the road. Careful when u cross the main road, the crossings are really weird!

and fiiiinally

f) Definitely don't book a 6am flight to leave the very next morning after your trek has ended from your gateway city. U may not think it now, but you'll probably want to spend an extra day or two there with your new found friends. I made this mistake and paid the hassle-some price of rearranging flight and accommodation details, which may result in my being homeless in Boston tomorrow night!

And, one essay later, thats about it! hope somebody found that useful... :)
