    together.
  • Experience the trip of a lifetime

What participants have to say
The most memorable part of my high school for me
was my EF tour. Going away with my peers to a
foreign country opened my eyes to different
cultures and societies and gave me an entirely
different perspective on life back home. Jamie
Ciardullo, Student Traveller Coquitlam, British
Columbia
I would love to travel with EF again! I felt
that our group was very well cared for and I felt
a great deal of reassurance knowing that I had so
much support from the organization and from the
knowledgeable people, It takes a lot of stress
out of a trip having so much done for me and the
group. I cant tell you how much I appreciate
all that you and your crew have done for
us. Sheryl Deimert, Teacher Grand Prarie
Composite High School Grand Prarie, Alberta
Travelling with EF was a life changing experience
for our son. He loved seeing the way other
people lived, the buildings and the scenery. So
many wonderful firsts. We have sent all three of
our children to Europe with EF, and its brought
our family closer together. Albert Englewood,
Parent Saint John, New Brunswick
