GBSchool trip went wrong We got to 2 bus accidents in one day in Paris. The tour guy was disrespectful. For dinner one day, we were fed pork; not everyone ate pork; therefore, I had to spend money to buy dinner. I asked for a vegetarian meal, but I was denied because I did fill out the form for vegetarian. So many things happened, which makes the trip unenjoyable. I felt like I waisted money for myself and my daughter

GBCaveat Emptor Our daughter enjoyed the itinerary and the country of Belize. However, the fact that we could not use a credit card to make payments as we had to initiate a bank draft of provide a debit card is ridiculous. Especially considering that the trip was greater than $4,000 and EF tours accepted our money for 2-years prior to the departure. Then the first flight departed at zero-dark-thirty from 110-miles from home when there is an airport 3-miles from home was also frustrating. Because we needed to arrive no later than 4am to the airport we opted for a $200 hotel room the prior night. We incurred a hotel night or leave would have had to leave the house @2am. Then a 6-hour layover, probably to save more money, really was upsetting. We were then told to provide $125/pp in cash tips for the guides just prior to departing for the trip which was also frustrating. So >$600/day for a vacation package from Expedia was far more reasonable for $1,253 versus ~$4,525 should make you think twice about this company and their super inflated travel packages.

GBEF Europe tour Just got back from a tour to Europe. We did Italy, Switzerland, and France in a week. We went as a group from Boonville, NY. We had the absolute best tour guide so I really just wanted to put that out there to thank her. Rossella Ibba spoke four languages, very knowledgeable, and tried to accommodate everyone’s needs. She has such a bubbly personality and set the mood every morning for positivity (no matter how early). ☺️ I was looking at all the pictures and really just wanted to put it out there that she is appreciated. She is such a good fit for this job and made our experience unforgettable! So thank you Rossella from the bottom of our heart. Dara and Englyn Payne 💕

GBLife-changing experiences for student travelers Have sent children abroad with EF on two different trips and each was extraordinary. EF puts traveler safety at the top of the priority list, and the local guides who are with them are incredible. Would highly recommend EF and their offerings. Life-changing experiences for student travelers.

GBOur daughter came home from this trip… Our daughter came home from this trip and could not stop talking about her experience in Costa Rica. She spoke very highly of their tour guide and shared that he made a difference in the trip.
