How Does It Work?
Your J-1 work and travel visa will limit you to a maximum of 30 days after your camp placement ends, but where you go and what you do in the USA is entirely up to you! After-camp travel is completely independent from your work placement at camp, and most participants start Camp America with a rough idea of travel plans, but once you make new friends at camp you might find new opportunities and inspired ideas with the best local knowledge.
This could be you!
Where Do I Go?
The USA is enormous, with iconic cities, landmarks and national parks from coast to coast. You might try to see as much as possible in one go, or dive deep into a state or place you’ve always dreamed of visiting – you can always come back as a Returner and see even more sights next season! If you’re stuck for ideas, or want to make sure you have at least some after-camp travel arranged before camp starts, why not check out our partners at Intrepid for some epic road trips and adventures?

Where Will You Go?
Check out the real travel experiences of our past participants for some inspiration on where after-camp travel might take you.
Camp is a truly life-changing experience and there is no better way to finish it off than travelling the USA after with all your new camp mates! I have done this every summer and had an incredible time.
I have been to some amazing cities such as Chicago, Las Vegas, LA, San Fran, Nashville, and New York. I have a new love for so many cultures, cities, and music after my travels in the States!
After my 6th summer, we headed to Boston! You can visit Harvard, explore the aquarium or eat at the famous Quincy market! Personally this was my favourite place to travel after camp.
Travelling after camp has enabled me to visit amazing places, such as two islands of Hawaii, New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles! I wouldn't have had the opportunity if it wasn't for Camp America.
Were my post-camp travels worth it? Would I do it all again? Well, this year will be my third summer in a row… so you tell me!
After camp, I finally got my dream trip to New York. I had a blast exploring with some awesome friends I made at camp! It felt like a dream come true, and I'll always remember it!
