Sjoukje was an absolute pleasure to travel with across Europe! She was knowledgeable and fun. The accommodations were in general, wonderful. The food was outstanding! We saw so many ch. it was disappointing to miss the Louvre and I was glad to have been the teacher to take a group to the Picasso museum instead of the bike tour, but other than that, it was AMAZING in every way! I was glad to ge to see Rena Sophia. The highlight was swimming under the Pont du Gard! Magical!
Sjoukje was the absolute best!
This was a fast-paced exciting trip for students who love art and adventure! We saw it all! To make it even better we added the neighborhood package for more centrally located hotels and upgraded dining. It's a great tour! I highly recommend it! And if you get Sjoukje for a guide, you win!
Flight delays outside of EF's control caused our traveler to miss the first two days of the trip. While I understand that these situations happen, I believe EF could have handled the disruption better by providing accommodations and activities for the students during the 48-hour wait for their next flights. The hotels were generally located on the outskirts of the cities, which resulted in students spending a significant portion of many days riding on a bus to reach the tour destinations. My daughter absolutely loved the EF tour director assigned to her group. However, I was incredibly disappointed in my daughter's teacher, who seemed to treat the trip as a personal vacation rather than an educational experience for the students. I believe EF should establish and enforce clear expectations that educators leading these trips are responsible for ensuring students are engaged in learning, remain safe, and are properly supervised throughout the experience. Despite these concerns, I am grateful for the many valuable experiences my daughter had, including meeting students from other schools and being exposed to different cultures. One disappointment was that most dinners were preselected, leaving students with little or no opportunity to choose from a menu. We also understood in advance that lunches would be on the students' own. However, because of the packed itinerary, there were several days when students did not have sufficient time or opportunity to eat lunch. This is unacceptable. Additionally, on mornings with very early departures, breakfast was not available before leaving the hotel. In these situations, EF should provide snacks or a boxed breakfast so students are not traveling for hours without food. Overall, while my daughter had many memorable experiences, I believe EF has room for improvement in its planning, student supervision expectations, and meal logistics. Based on our experience, I also believe there are other tour companies that offer comparable educational travel experiences at a more affordable price.
I wish we had just planned our own trip. This trip failed to meet expectations, fell short of what we were promised, and feels like a scam.
Incredible.
EF Tours was amazing. Everything was planned to perfection.

We love to hear it! Thanks for sharing and for being part of the EF Tours family.
Great experience and wonderful trip! Would recommend.
It was organized very well! My son loved all of it! He had the time of his life! He had nothing to complain about! They saw so much! Incredible!
My daughter had the time of her life. She said she felt like she grew up on this tour. Highly recommend it!
Packed with tons of valuable sites and local tours.
The trip was a great experience after the arrival in London. Our daughter was placed on a plane by herself from California to Heathrow, and no one from EF Tours notified this change before it was too late to make any changes for her to go with the rest of her high-school group!?!? And airlines are UNABLE to help since these tickets purchased by EF Tours don't allow them to even make a change, nor a credit. Customer representatives at EF were not helpful in the least. Encouraging our high-school to use a different company when making school trips abroad!
thank you!
My son had the time of his life
My daughter had an amazing time! Thanks for making everything so safe and easy.
