Wazi campers come from all over the world, flying into Boston, Massachussets or Portland, Maine. Those coming from nearby in the USA can come to camp by car or join our private, chartered group bus in Boston.
As soon as your travel plans are confirmed, please update the “Transportation” form in your campers’ CampInTouch profile. This information MUST be entered by June 1st to ensure transportation in camp vehicles. Please do not send us itineraries- this information must be entered into CampInTouch by a parent or guardian to ensure that nothing gets lost in translation.
IMPORTANT: Flights to and from camp must arrive within the arrival and departure windows or we will be unable to pick up or drop off your campers.
If you have any questions about your travel plans, please reach out to Amanda (amanda@wazi.com) to confirm BEFORE booking.
By Car
Many campers arrive with their families by car. Drop off times will be sent out to families via email as we near the start of our first session.
By Bus
We offer chartered bus service from Logan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts and from the Riverside T Station in Newton, Massachusetts, and sometimes from New York City depending on interest. To ensure that your camper will have a seat on the bus, please make sure that it is selected in the “Additional Options” section on page three of the Camper Application.
By Plane
Campers arriving by plane come to Boston’s Logan International Airport (BOS) or Portland, Maine’s Portland International Jetport (PWM). They are picked up at the airport by our staff and join our private, chartered bus or shuttle. Please follow the below guidelines when selecting flights. First session flights (and possibly second session depending on interest) from Miami, Florida are chaperoned flights.
Please be aware that we ask the families of campers who will be travelling unaccompanied on domestic flights to ship their bags to camp instead of checking them. ShipCamps, FedEx, and UPS all offer this service.
