Overall, my experience with EF Tours had its ups and downs. While I appreciated the efforts of our main guide, Alistair, who was wonderful, helpful, and hardworking, I had both positive and negative experiences during the trip. Although the accommodations were decent, I found the food to be disappointing in terms of both options and quality. I was expecting more variety instead of having beef stew three days in a row. Additionally, I felt that the pace of the trip was often rushed, which prevented me from fully immersing myself in each experience. Furthermore, there were transportation issues that added stress to the trip. For instance, we missed buses that caused us to lose valuable time in London, and the poor communication among the members of the trip resulted in confusion. In fact, one night the bus driver even went to the wrong hotel! Moreover, the itinerary was not always followed, which made it difficult to plan effectively. Lastly, the last flight home was particularly unpleasant due to multiple layovers. In summary, while there were some positives about the trip, there were also areas for improvement that would have made it a much better experience overall. For instance, EF Tours could consider offering more food options that cater to different dietary requirements, and they could also plan the itinerary with more flexibility, so that participants can fully enjoy each experience.
