A: That depends upon how many teens are on tour with us for Teen Tour "2010". We usually have one adult teen advisor for every 20 teens, plus one junior teen advisor for every 10 teens on tour, plus one full time security person on tour per each 40 teens. We assign no more then 40 teens to a single motorcoach. We will take no more then 120 teens on tour this summer for a total of 3 buses, and a staff of 42 people.

A: All teens must carry proof of Citizenship on them at all times as now required by international law to enter into Canada and for re-entry back into the United States. For non-citizens you will need a passport from your country of origin as well as the necessary visas necessary to enter into Canada and re-entry back into the United States. On June 1, 2009 all adults and children alike now need proof of U.S. Citizenship for all land crossing into both Canada and Mexico alike. All travelers by land have a choice between a US Passport or the new passport card which can be obtained for only $45.00 and allows land travel only in North America between the United States, Canada and Mexico. All US Citizens traveling by air into Canada & Mexico or within the Western Hemisphere need a valid US passport which is good for 10 years. Back on Tuesday January 23, 2007 all U.S. citizens need a passport to enter or re-enter the United States by air from Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, South and Central America, and the Caribbean (otherwise known as the Western Hemisphere). This is all part of the Department Of Homeland Security air & land portion of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) and affects both adults and children alike from the United State of America, Canada, Mexico and the British Overseas Territory of Bermuda. While United States citizens are currently required to have passports to enter most countries in Central and South America, this rule makes clear that the passport must be presented upon return to the United States as well.
