High school art trip Our daughter and her classmates had a fantastic experience in Italy! The trip was fun, flawless, and educational! We travel often and this was a perfectly executed art trip with an extra large group of high school students. Wonderful opportunity for those who wouldn’t otherwise travel. She is looking forward to next years trip!

London, wales, and Dublin tour Our tour guide Patty was friendly, informative and very well organized. She communicated very effectively both verbally and via the app. We got to see so much in the places we visited with plenty of time for both guided tours and free time to explore. The variety of experiences was exceptional. Tours both walking a bus, shopping experiences, chance to ride public transportation, cultural activities like dancing and singing and music, museums, castles and even a farm. All the tour guides were amazing! This was an incredible experience for both my daughter and I.

When I canceled my automatic transfer… When I canceled my automatic transfer of funds you still tried to pull then charged me late fees. When trying to rectify the situation through you and the teacher that was working on organizing the tour you ignored the situation. My daughter didn’t like Juan saying he was bossy and pushy. I understand a tour guide has to move people along but this wasn’t her complaint ask my daughter for her reasons. I will say however it seemed well organized as far as what to take and when to have things ready. Times were reasonably accurate and things did seem to flow according to their plan.

Italy high school trip My daughter, Jordan, a sophomore at Burr and Burton High School in Vermont, went to Italy with about 30 of her classmates. Her experience with EF Tours was exceptional. Communicating with the parents helped us prepare her for the trip and feel comfortable with her abroad. I highly recommend them.

Costa Rica with Gustavo! I joined my daughter, her teacher, and other students on the Costa Rica trip. We LOVED it! It's a beautiful country and the locals were just lovely and very welcoming. The experiences we had were amazing and we learned SO much from our guide Gustavo. He was there every step of the way. We were very active on this trip - lots of challenging hiking, zip lining (it was awesome), and snorkeling/swimming. We saw and learned about so many birds and animals, and we hiked a volcano. It was surreal. The hotels and bus were comfortable. Our favorite hotel was the Buena Vista Lodge-the sunsets were breathtaking! Our only disappointment is that it was advertised as a week-long trip. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and our flights home were early morning the following Friday, so we felt like we were robbed of an entire day. We should have traveled home the following Saturday. We also had a very long layover (6 hours) between flights which was daunting, but we made the best of it as we had all bonded during this wonderful trip. I would absolutely recommend EF Tours, Gustavo, and Costa Rica. It's the most gorgeous place. Pura Vida!
