Everything was great except for 1 hotel in France with Horrid management and dangerous conditions ( zenitude Maestria Antibes) They put my daughter in a room where the ceiling was literally raining in front of their door. They spoke to management and they called them drama queens and refused to move them to another room. By morning chunks of the ceiling had fallen down. I am sorry but that is far from safe conditions or good customer service

Incredible trip with amazing experiences. We were a small group that got blended with three other schools. Our tour director did an amazing job making each school and group feel special on our tour of Ecuador and Galapagos. We saw so many amazing things and had great experiences.

My daughter mentioned everything was as planned and was looking forward for another trip.

To be honest, the trip was amazing. There were just a few inconveniences such as the last four or five days.The air conditioning went out of the bus. We had to stop a couple of times to have a mobile mechanic work on it, not fixing the issue and we missed a couple scheduled events. Our tour guide Benedict was also amazing! He made our already amazing tour in Europe even better.

We loved the different perspectives for each of the cities. It was a good balance to go to two great big cities (Ho Chi Minh and Bangkok) with one awesome small let city in between (Siem Reap)

Had a tour bus with a bathroom, yet the driver wouldn't let anyone use it. Tour guide would tell people that there was not enough time to use the bathroom once we were off the bus due to running behind since the driver would do 20 under the speed limit. Preplanned meals were cheap and awful. Hotels were located in towns with nothing to do around them. The fondue meal in Switzerland was literally just dipping cheese then a normal crappy meal which was completely miss marked. Tour locations seemed completely unorganized going back and forth to the same locations. Tour company should give more detail about the travel time on the bus. I paid for 3 individuals and convinced 7 other people to attend to be completely let down. Was hoping this was going to be wonderful so we could start doing solo tours, but what a complete and utter disaster! Return flight was ridiculous

Most amazing trip

The whole trip was well coordinated. Our tour guide, Catou, was the absolute best! The upgraded food package was wonderful. I would highly recommend this EF Tour to others interested in traveling to France!

I love EF Tours. I think it is an awesome, transformative experience for teens. This trip was a bit more difficult because we switched EF reps and there was some lost communication. That coupled with the completely unfriendly school we traveled with made some parts difficult. But Greece is beautiful!!!

We had a good trip and wonderful tour director. We were not happy to be matched with 6-12 yr olds.

It was amazing to sit back and not have to worry about the logistics of scheduling all the activities we did let alone traveling between them. Our guide was amazing and kind, as were the 3 other local guides we met with on the tour. We saw a little of a lot of things on our trip. And there is the crux; the pace of the tour moved so so fast there was not enough time to soak in and immerse ourselves in each experience. It was a bit too fast paced. We were being taken to these amazing places and it was all a whirlwind of take a few photos, and then get 10 minutes to visit a gift shop and then be bustled back onto the bus. There was so much to see that we missed out on, so it is hard to imagine thinking there should have been less stuff on our daily schedule, and yet, it would have been nice to spend more quality time at the places we were viewing.
I am glad I accompanied our child.
I would go on another tour if I was able to, but come knowing that it is very fast paced and mindful of times that kids are not supervised potentially.

I loved my EF Experience. Our tour guide Sjouke Van De Meer was a spectacular host. She kept us safe, seeing everything, and in the best places for sightseeing. This trip met all of my expectations for my group and so much more. The hotels and food all gave us a glimpse of culture we don’t have in the states.

Our EF Tour (Alps & Mediterranean Coast) was an unforgettable experience, made extraordinary by our incredible guide, Valentina. Her impeccable planning skills, intelligence, and calm leadership made every day seamless. From navigating busy cities to organizing complex travel logistics across multiple countries, Valentina handled everything with grace and precision. We always felt informed, prepared, and cared for—and that’s a testament to her extraordinary talent.

Huge shoutout as well to our amazing group leader, Sarah Morris, whose attention to detail and preparation ensured that our entire group was ready for every country, every cultural moment, and every unexpected twist along the way. Her leadership set the tone for a safe, organized, and truly enriching adventure.

EF Tours is lucky to have leaders like Valentina and Sarah—this trip wouldn’t have been the same without them!

The entire experience was well planned and they provide an easy to follow plan from signing up through the return home. All of the accommodations were top notch and safety was a top priority.

I was so impressed with EF from beginning to end. Excellent communication and they were always there to help anytime the
unexpected happened. The tour itself was extraordinary and is one of the best trips I’ve taken. Highly recommended!

Prior to travel my EF coordinators were awesome. If they didn’t know the answers to my questions or concerns they would get right back to me. I loved the trip but I would suggest a hotel early on that had a pool maybe 2nd or 3rd day, as the students really got more acquainted/ice breaker. Temperatures were extremely high so maybe not so much walking even though EF is a walking company.
