FAQ
We want to offer all participants maximum flexibility when traveling to Great Britain. Therefore, we have chosen London Heathrow Airport. There are several daily flights to Heathrow from all major cities in Germany and other European countries.
All participants are responsible for booking their own flights to London Heathrow. It is crucial that the exact arrival date for the first day is strictly adhered to. The flight should arrive at London Heathrow between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM on the arrival day. The transfer time to the camp in Kentish Town is approximately one hour.
We guarantee 100% that our Camp Team staff will be waiting at the airport exit to greet all participants. Our staff will be wearing green "Camps for Friends" T-shirts and name badges, and will be able to provide identification.
On the last day, our camp team will escort all participants to the correct check-in counter at the airport and assist with check-in. It is also very important to note that the exact departure date of the last day must be strictly adhered to. The return flight should depart from London Heathrow no earlier than 1:00 PM on the departure day.
Important note for parents: If you cannot find a suitable flight, please contact us. We will be happy to help!
Our camp manager can always be reached by mobile phone in case of emergency – you will receive all emergency numbers after booking in the customer center.
The safety of all participants on the language course in London is our top priority. Therefore, the teenagers are allowed to keep their mobile phones during all excursions and leisure activities outside the accommodation. At the camp itself, the teenagers may use their mobile phones for one hour after dinner.
Yes, they are teenagers after all. However, we do prepare the kids for this: At the beginning of the language course in London, we always travel together on the London Underground or by bus, so that the camp participants can get used to the routes of the big city. Our accommodation is located directly on the Northern Line and only 6 stops from the city center, so navigating the city is easy. To ensure everything runs smoothly, we will set up a WhatsApp group for all participants on the first day.
Even on shopping trips, the young people are free to move around in small groups of 3-5 people and pursue their own interests. A time and meeting point are always agreed upon, where someone from our team of supervisors can be found.
We recommend spending money of £75.00–£100.00 per week for everyday expenses while traveling, plus possibly more for gifts, souvenirs, or clothing. It's more practical to buy British pounds in Germany, as the exchange rates in London are considerably less favorable. Alternatively, you can pay almost everywhere in London with a debit or credit card.
Your child does not generally need separate insurance for the holiday camp: your family's health and liability insurance is perfectly sufficient. However, please note the insurance information we provide during the booking process – without travel cancellation insurance, we unfortunately cannot reimburse any costs in case of illness or similar circumstances.
