Taking these young people to Africa was an enormous undertaking - one to which I would only have trusted my son's amazing school and your remarkable tour company. We have had two children travel with EF Tours. The tours have been organized yet flexible. They have been wonderful value. Exposing these young people to history, life in other corners of the world and to other cultures has an immeasurable benefit. This trip to Africa exceeded all others. I think perhaps the moment that best encapsulates how special this experience was revolves around an inevitable little planning "hiccup." One of the vehicles transporting the kids got a flat tire. While the tire was being changed our students noticed children playing soccer - an unremarkable observation save for these kids were playing with a ball of rags. Our students located a soccer ball (many had been taken along to give to Kenyan students) and gave it to these children. The unscheduled stop became and opportunity for kids from our school to play soccer with delighted local children. The tire was changed and off our kids went - one soccer ball the poorer, but much the richer for the opportunity to play with these African children and appreciate that something they took so much for granted was a prize half way across the world. This tour was, in so many different way, a life changing experience - something that we believe will change our boy's perspective on the world. What a wonderful education travel provides, this experience in particular.
Where to begin? The trip was just absolutely amazing! I never imagined I'd get to see the things I did on this trip. Getting to experience all the different things EF set up for us was amazing. Seeing the glo-worm caves, learning about the maori, our time in Australia, it was all fantastic. The sydney opera house is beautiful and stunning from the outside, and just as stunning from the inside. The 2 weeks I spent on this trip will always stay with me and remain 2 of the best weeks of my life.
This trip really opened my eyes to how amazing the world really is and what's out there! I had fun the whole time! Our guides were excellent; very knowledgeable, outgoing and funny. I was very sad to leave them. Getting to see all of these fantastic places are great, but it's even better when you're surrounded by your friends as well! All the hotels, meals, transportation etc. were perfect! I especially liked visiting St.Malo! I felt very comfortable and safe (like I did everywhere else as well) and the atmosphere there was very serene. I would definitely recommend this tour to a friend because it's definitely an experience I will remember for the rest of my life! Thank-you very much for giving me the travel bug EF!
I really liked the tour. Everything was well planed, the guide was amazing. We had time to visit on our own which I really liked. I just wish I could always travel with EF:)
My trip to Rome and Paris was absoulutely amazing! The things we seen and experinced were awesome, I would reccomend this trip to anyone who wants to learn, and to become more fufilled. The things you learn on these trips are not things that can be learned from books or from school I really do feel experience is the key to learning! And this trip has most definitely made me a more rounded person. I thank EF tours for their stong commitment to their customers and they are absoulutely wonderful to deal with, I attended this trip two years ago and am going on another trip this coming year, which again, I know will be an unforgettable experince! Thank you EF tours!
Incredibly busy, varied, engaging, absorbing: this tour was all of these and culminated in a moving and memorable ceremony on Juno Beach at 11/11/11/11!
The trip was amazing, we saw allot of interesting stuff! And Ef tours was super organized. I only put four stars out of five because the food was okay not great. And there should of been more free time instead of going to see a billion churches. My experience with Ef tours was a great one and I hope all of you will enjoy it as much as I did!
I accompanied my son and his Spanish class to Spain and was very impressed with our tour. The guide was a lot of fun and provided a great deal of information about his native country. We visited many beautiful historical buildings and monuments. Although , the pace of our tour was very quick and I was exhausted when I arrived home , I was appreciative to have seen so much of Spain . We travelled by tour bus which was very comfortable . My only recommendations to other travellers would be to try and pack light as many of the Spanish hotels have very small elevators . Many of us ended up lugging our suitcases up many flights of stairs as there were lineups at the elevators. My only other challenge was the food. Even though our tour included breakfast and supper I found it difficult to please our group of teenagers at times. Some days were set meals and some days were buffet. If someone did not like the set meal , they would not eat or it would not be enough for teenagers. Otherwise our experience was great and we made wonderful , lifelong memories !
