Carlsbad location of Camp Galileo, a national Galileo Learning day-camp program built around STEAM projects, collaborative design challenges and outdoor activities. Campers are grouped by rising grade (K-1, 2-3, 4-5 and 6-8), ages roughly 5-14, with six weekly themes for younger campers and three for older ones so each week differs. Part of a national camp chain.

Powered by GoogleWe went to the Pasadena location last year. It was educational and worth it. We found out on the first day of camp that they standardized their "curriculum" this year for consistency throughout all the campuses. Their "curriculum" has absolutely no educational value. We are paying top dollar for glorified babysitting. I will be demanding my money back.
Camp Galileo is one of our favorite summer camps! The staff is always enthusiastic and the projects are engaging. We attend quite a few summer camps each year and Camp Galileo stands out for its great hours (9am-3pm + extended care to 6pm), time spent inside and outside, lots of games and activities throughout the day and cool projects that are always fun to explore at the end of the week.
Our two children attended Camp Galileo in Carlsbad last summer and I was really impressed with the camp. They created some really cool STEM based projects, played fun games and enjoyed water day. The group leaders had a lot of fun with the kids and the camp was well organized during drop off and pick up. Looking forward to attending again this year.
I've had a TERRIBLE experience so far with Galileo. They processed a reimbursement for sessions they had to cancel and it's been a grueling process to get the reimbursement back. After almost 10 days and phone calls they processed 1/3 of my reimbursement when they said I would be fully reimbursed. They have yet to process the remainder and It's nearly impossible to get someone on the phone.
Galileo has been at Aviara Oaks the past 2 years. This is an excellent camp! My kids love Galileo and alway shave the best time! I love it because they come home with creative ideas and are excited to try new things! We'll be back again this year!
