Our A+ Tour collection features exclusive educational programming and immersive experiences that you can only get through EF–they are rated exceptionally high by educators who travel with us.


In the land of the Hellenes, embark on a captivating journey where mythicized history, and historicized myth, paint our perceptions of Greece's ancient past. Traverse the time-worn paths and enduring edifices of the Acropolis, where the wisdom of Athena (patron of Athens) echoes across the ages. Marvel at the majestic Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion, as an expert guide recounts epic tales of the sea god’s might. In Olympia, witness the grandeur of 2,700 years of human athletic achievement through the relics preserved in its Archaeological Museum. Finally, you'll conclude your odyssey with hands-on history at a traditional pottery workshop, where you'll learn of the myriad ways ancient Greeks moulded, fired, and refined clay into beautiful works of art. This Grecian Odyssey is not just a tour—it’s another chapter in the epic of Western civilization, waiting for you to weave yourself into its storied folds.
