Bruce-Grey Catholic &
Travel for Credit

EF chooses reputable chain hotels that are safe and student-friendly, usually located outside the city centre. Students typically sleep 3-4 to a room. Twin rooms are available at an additional cost; please contact Traveller Support at 1.800.263.2806.

Daily breakfasts and dinners are included. Students choose and buy their own lunches and are encouraged to try local cuisine for a well-rounded tour experience. EF works with restaurants to best accommodate allergies and dietary restrictions (vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten-free). You can learn more in your tour’s booking conditions. Students’ food dislikes are not treated the same as allergies or restrictions—the fun of travelling is to expand not just perspectives, but palates!

Safety is our number one priority, including students’ emotional, physical and intellectual well-being. If they have additional or special learning needs that require support throughout summer school (in class or online), please contact your school board directly. For travel-related accessibility requests, including an additional chaperone or assistant, get in touch with Traveller Support at 1.800.263.2806.

Students travelling outside of Canada, are required to carry a valid passport (valid for 6-months after travel). If travelling to the US by land, students 15 years of age or younger may cross the border with their Canadian birth certificate or Canadian citizenship card. If a student is not a Canadian citizen, additional documentation may be required.

Don’t worry! It’s not uncommon for teachers to reach out near the start of summer school. Please note, teachers send information directly to the student’s email, so let them to know to check it.
