Custom-Designed Tour in England
Christina S., English Teacher
We helped Christina design her very own London and Cambridge tour for the summer of 2014. Christina wanted to specifically create an itinerary that aligns with her school's curriculum and philosophies. Working with a dedicated EF representative, Christina incorporated several unique highlights, including visits to Cambridge University and Norwich Castle.
