My group had a wonderful experience visiting all of the notable locations of the literary greats. This tour was a wonderful balance of history, nature, and time to explore on your own.

Abundance of experiences missed the Windsor castle trip due to lack of enroling , maybe a refund?
Our tour guide Alistair was the best! He was entertaining and knowledgeable. It was a great experience.
Our tour guide was AMAZING, through planned activities and bumps in the road. Students were able to step back in time to envision how well-known authors lived and worked. Locals were friendly and helpful, and the local guides were incredibly knowledgeable.
Excellent trip overall. The phone communication with EF ahead of the trip was very poor. I experienced long wait times or no call back on several occasions. This experience was so poor that I didn't feel secure about sending him on the trip. The itinerary was great as well as my son's tour guide and I appreciate that he was able to room in a mixed gender situation. This flexibility and understanding was as I shared much appreciated. I would suggest booking hotel rooms in Europe during the summer months with AC moving forward. My son and his peers spent a miserable night trying to sleep in the heat and it made them all very tired the next day and took away from the enjoyment of the trip. Overall, it was still a positive experience. Thank you.
Fun, safe and just an amazing experience.
This was a wonderful tour. We got to see lots of really cool locations associated with classic British Literature, and without exception the local tour guides were knowledgeable and interesting. There were a couple of activities advertised in the tour description that we didn't get to do, but those were not things EF Tours had any control over--we weren't able to tour any of the colleges at Oxford University, but that was up to Oxford, and we weren't able to see a performance at the Globe, but there wasn't one scheduled that day. Our time touring the Globe Theater felt a little bit short and rushed, but otherwise there was a nice mix of structured activities and free time. I would definitely recommend this tour.
My daughter had a wonderful time
My daughter had a great time, learned much of the culture and literature aspects from Shakespeare!
Marvelous Experience! I'm now officially depressed.
EF did an amazing job at finding us a fun and enthusiastic local tour guide. Jez did an amazing job providing relevant history and fun facts. EF did great at filling up our schedule with tons of fun stops and made the trip even more memorable.
Everyday felt rushed. No time to soak it in.
Literature gave me the opportunity to take a group to England and see some other places. I do wish we could have done some other things while on London. We did see the changing of the guard. Local tour guides were amazing. Try to change up evening dinners to a restaurant in the city and not at the hotel. My group did not get to experience riding the tube. :( Give choices at dinner. One hotel did that and it was great. Some People don’t like fish and that was all they had prepared for the travelers. I will adjust my questions to ask what you will not eat, not allergic to it, you don’t like it. Maybe that will help
The "Literature in England" tour was very informative and the tour guides were personable, approachable and very welcoming. Their knowledge and hospitality made the experience engaging. The places we visited were that much better in person than seeing photos online or in a magazine.
Great!! An unforgettable experience. Will go back again.
Overall great experience. But travel arrangements were less than ideal. Overnight connecting flight with long layover straight into a tour day was absurd. Chris crossing the countryside daily instead of staying at hotels close to the locations is a waste of time. Included food was sub pare.
We were able to see so much of England and it was very informative and interactive.
Son loved his tour director. Only complaint was some of the food choices and wishing they had more down time.

My son had a wonderful time. Thank you.
Three things that were pretty bad, tour guide was disrespectful, workshop was very inappropriate and last hotel kids stayed in was disgusting! Rest of the trip was pretty awesome.
