USThe tour was educational and fun The tour was educational and fun. The tour guide was the best we've had in a long time. The aspects about the trip we didn't like was the hotel in Florence - dirty and it was filled with truck stop drivers. The food choices and quality for dinner was mediocre. The day we went to Rome to see the colosseum there was a large crowd to get through security, which took long time. This then rushed th Roman Forum and lunch so we could get to the Vatican on time. Maybe separate out these two area tours to different days during the busier months.

USHigh 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!

USEF 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 💕

USThe tour guide for our students was… The tour guide for our students was fantastic. The hotel accommodations where decent. The only big change I would suggest is letting the families know of the change in return travel documents that EF requires with the hard deadlines in order for families to pick up there students and travel after the school trip is complete. I would also let school or students know ahead of time that the student is responsible for purchasing lunch daily. We did not know that we had to purchase lunch ever day making the cash brought on the trip a bit different for our student.

USLondon, 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.
