About
Urban Adventure Camps offers amazing daily field trip adventures to the Bay Area’s museums, science centers, parks, galleries, and other urban attractions and city centers. Groups take a different field trip every day of the week and navigate the Bay Area using public transportation while learning the public transit system, map reading, and how to get around the city. Each session focuses on subject areas such as physical science, natural science, history, and art, with camps separated into Explorer Camps and Active Camps.

The mission of Urban Adventure Camps is to give campers an experience to remember through the destinations visited and active days in small groups, with daily adventures that help to build confidence and independence.
