This trip was just perfect. I know it’s fast but you got a sample of everything in each city. Know that these are starter trips, designed to spark a lust for travel in your students. Know that, when EF provides hotels that are not city centered, it’s for your students safety, not aggravation. Our tour director took time to make sure my students were just as happy on the bus as they were exploring the city. This tour is flexible with free time and was just enough fast and slow.
Could have been much better. Dinners planned-food not good and no option if don’t eat what serve (1 item) and a lot of wait around and down time. Layover OTW to Europe ridiculously (over 6 hours)

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We apologize if the dinners planned during your tour did not meet your expectations. We understand that having more options for meals would have been preferable. However, due to the logistics of accommodating large groups and time constraints, it can be challenging to provide multiple choices for each meal. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.
We also apologize for the lengthy layover during your journey to Europe. While layovers can sometimes be unavoidable, we understand that a six-hour layover can be inconvenient and frustrating. We will take your feedback into consideration when planning future itineraries to minimize such delays and ensure a smoother travel experience for our participants.
Your input is valuable to us, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. We will use your feedback to improve our services and make necessary adjustments for future tours. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.
I was a parent of a teen who went in the trip. I just filled out this whole review on trust pilot so please refer to that one.
We LOVED Mario. He was not only our guide but our caregiver for the week
Amazing adventure for everyone! Students WILL learn life skills, and have a better understanding of the countries and each country's culture and people. Wish we spent 3 days in each country ! So much to explore and so little time :) Thank you EF for everything! Especially the support you gave before, during, and coming home from the tour! I couldn't ask for a better consultant, Tour Director, or support staff!
EF offered a great adventure for the price. We enjoyed being exposed to the different countries. It sparked the desire to see and do more with our vacation time than the usual trips. Having all aspects of it taken care of from transportation to lodging to tours allowed us to just enjoy ourselves and not have to worry about putting that all together. I would recommend EF.
The trip was wonderful, the countries, sites, history and our guide Jose were top notch. I gave a 4 star only because the schedule was a bit brutal. There was not enough time to rest and recharge between jam packed days, and that hindered my ability to take in all the info at the end of the trip. I didn't mind the walking, and there was a lot! I got my best photos while walking. I just would have liked a little more time to recharge between. I would suggest either a longer trip time for all three cities or break it up into just two cities for the same amount of time.
beautiful!
Hotels were sub-par and the trip was changed too many times. Things were taken away and replaced with other things. The time in Paris was shortened and things were not seen. There was also no down time, to much go go go and not time to enjoy the surroundings.
For the amount of money we paid for this trip I would have expected more. The hotels we stayed in were horrible. They were dirty, hot, out of the way, and as low budget as it gets. The meals that were provided weren’t any better. They were cheap, basic, and super small portion sizes. We didn’t get a choice of what to eat, we were just served a plate of food that I could’ve cooked better myself at home. As an adult on the tour it was obvious that the choices made for us by our guide were the cheapest possible options. Our tour guide had poor time management skills. We walked everywhere and the pace we had to walk in order to make it everywhere she wanted us to go was ridiculous. She literally had us walking all over the place all day from one end of the city to the other and then back again. I understand the tours are designed for students but even my student was miserable and says she wouldn’t want to go on another EF tour again.

We are sorry to hear you did not have an excellent experience, Elisha. Many time for meals the restaurants will provide one or two options to help the students all eat within the allotted timeframe and continue on with the tour or go to sleep for the next day. Thank you for sharing your experience and feedback, we appreciate it.
It was really fun! 100% would do it again!
Best experience
Saw everything I hoped for and more!
No delays with travel, accomodations were clean and safe
Got to see a lot of sights. Very fast paced. Our tour director Eduardo Martin did an outstanding job. The hotel in Paris was not so great. Also need to schedule some rest stops during the tours.
