Cuba has been on my bucket list for several years. After searching the internet for programs, I settled on Discover Corp. From the time I made my first contact with them they were completely supportive, answering many questions and being extremely helpful with all my many concerns. My trip began Jan. 28, 2017 and lasted 8 days. From the moment we called our trip guide to let them know we were arriving in the country 3 hours early until the day we left we were in the best of care one could ask for. The group was small making it easy to get to know one another and giving us the ability to make, off the itinerary stops for ice cream or some of the best chocolate ever. Because it rained the first day of our tour, our guide was able to change our itinerary to accommodate the weather. I would highly recommend Discover Corp if you are at all interested in traveling overseas. They have my full support and confidence.

My daughter studied in Spain summer, 2011. We have YET to receive her transcripts. We have left numerous voice mails and sent numerous emails. NON RESPONSE from Chris. Daughter is graduating this semester and those credits are needed. I recommend you DO NOT use this company. Waste of money and time.
My daughter used Abroadco to study abroad in Paris Last year. The first semester went well the housing that we arranged was changed but she liked the dorm. Actually the program was not bad and she enjoyed herself. However since she has returned she has been unsuccessful in obtaining a transcript for her spring semester. She did not receive the deposit for her housing as well. Chris will not return any calls or emails. Basically once they have your money it's gone. If there is anyone else out there having the same problem obtaining a transcript or getting deposits back please fill out the Arizona Attorney General consumer complaint form.

I am currently abroad with Abroadco. It's been almost two months, and we have yet to receive dates for our excursions and extras in the program. Chris is not responding to emails.
Before I left, I was told I would be living in one place, and when I arrived, I was brought to another. Chris blamed the housing company, but I spoke to them personally and it appears my original booking was cancelled because Chris failed to pay on time.
There were several negative reviews on the Abroadco facebook page which have since been hidden or taken down.
Avoid this company at all costs!
My daughter went to Spain. The director in Spain was wonderful . My daughter really enjoyed the program. I would recommend Abroadco if you don't care about getting the class credit. She finished July 30 2011. It is now January 2012 and we still do not have the transcripts. Chris who is in the office in the US will not return phone calls and stopped returning email. I don't know if we will ever get the transcripts.
