We are so glad our daughter had to explore this trip with a well organized and professional team from Educational Tours.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Our guide, Dan, was known and friendly. We were busy the whole trip and enjoyed it immensely. We visited so many amazing places and learned so much about the areas we were in. We loved the sights, the food, and the people. Would absolutely do it again!

It was a well planned trip and was able to see a lot of historic sites

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

We had a great guide, and overall the experience was incredible. We saw amazing places and will remember this trip forever. That said, the main challenge was the timing and pace of the itinerary. The schedule felt very fast, and our son ended up getting sick, which we believe was partly due to the lack of time to acclimate after arriving. In several cases, the trip began activities immediately upon landing, with limited free time to rest or explore at a comfortable pace. This did improve later in the trip, but the pacing was not consistent across each country. We also experienced issues with inaccurate name details on some inter-country flights, which caused avoidable concern and delays—something we would not have expected from a professionally booked and managed trip. Overall, we appreciated the highlights and the effort that went into organizing the journey, but a more balanced pace and closer attention to travel details would improve the experience significantly.

Tour was amazing, well planned, and we had the absolute best tour guide. Adeline met us in Rome, and traveled with us everywhere. She was able to offer suggestions on where to eat, what to see, and where to shop when we had free time in the big cities. As a parent who went with my child, I know this was a lot of walking and a lot of times where we didn't have a say in where we went or what we did. That's just part of group travel - the travelers go with the flow and appreciate what EF has set up for us.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

My European trip was an unforgettable experience because everything was well organized, allowing me to focus on learning about the culture and enjoying each destination. The tour guides were knowledgeable and engaging, and the itinerary offered a great balance of sightseeing, education, and free time. The company does an excellent job of planning, communicating, and providing support throughout the trip, making travelers feel confident and cared for from start to finish. Thank you EF for your caring staff, for the awesome trip and for the great memories...

Would recommend adding a day or removing a location. Everything felt rushed and alot of kids were exhausted without being able to fully take everything in.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

We loved touring these major cities, enjoying the historic sites, the food, history and of course the shopping! We could have used an additional day in both Paris and in Madrid. The 3-5 hours lost in flight travel also wore on us on travel days so maybe no museums on days we fly. We also would like to have one of our hotels in a city center so that we can move freely back and forth to our hotel for a longer chunk of time. Our chaperones always accompany students for evening walks through local streets, but some of our hotels were so far removed from anything at all. Our hotel in Rome was in a parking lot with a small supermarket and a "Best Buy" type department store across from us.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

My daughter had an amazing experience in these top European cities. She saw all the major landmarks with a very well organized itinerary and informative tour guides. The whole trip was very planned to the T and she will definitely have memories for a lifetime. The food options that were included with the tour could have been more and of better quality but overall the trip was a success and highly recommended. As a parent safely is on of our major concerns especially with our children traveling so far and I felt at ease.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

I would recommend this travel experience to other parents for their children. Very detail-oriented and easy to follow. I do wish there was an option for parents to attend, as well.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This tour was AMAZING! Although it was fast-paced, we were able to see it all! We gained access into all of the ticketed sites and did not have to do any alternative experiences. The hotels were great and the tour director was the BEST!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

It was a great experience, students were able to see first hand what they’ve read about in school. They learned culture and enjoyed an authentic cooking experience.
