This is my second try with EF go ahead. My first trip was last summer, which was absolutely memorable experience, with great excursions and activities offered , great tour organization, and great leadership and personality of tour director Gweanel. I started this trip to Spain...

The Ultimate Conundrum

1st-time traveler Eric

The Ultimate Conundrum Why only 3 stars? It’s a tough one, because our tour guides, Julio and Isil, were an easy 5 out of 5. The bus drivers were just as great. The locations themselves? Also a 5. So how does this trip end up with only 3 stars? Honestly, I wanted to give it a...

Overall the tour is not impressed for a recommendation or a return for another tour from EF. Almost all hotels are lack of minimum bathroom essentials. Except a few updated but overall nearly all are old and not support for older travelers. With only 1 suitcase allowed for...

This tour was advertised as including porter service, but unfortunately, no assistance was provided for our luggage. Additionally, the route could have been better planned to minimize the length of bus rides.

this tour is very aggressive with long hours every day. a lot of walking and hours in a bus—so make sure you know you can handle a lot of walking. My personal opinion is that too much is packed into individual days. So maybe don’t sign up for all side trips.

2nd-time traveler Anonymous

The air line stunk. Communication damn near impossible. We all want straight thru flight, not 2 hrs layovers. Too much time on bus. 2nd day to last was terrible. 2 straight days of travel. Couldn't even change for farewell dinner. Dinner only consisted of one cheese rollup &...

All-in-all an incredible journey

Iceland: The Golden Circle & Ring Road

“Our tour has become a favorite for me. I credit our tour guide (Triggvi) with his incredible ability to educate and inform as we went. (Iceland has such history that I was unaware of, and I learned so much.) In addition, the amazing sights of volcanos, waterfalls, & glaciers, with all that formed around and because of them, is an experience I am so appreciative of having. Loved seeing the many horses and sheep, tasting good food, learning about Icelands folklore, and meeting nice people. Our bus driver was also a good part of my experience and was very much appreciated as well. Shout out to Steiny! The Northern Lights were amazing to see. We were fortunate to have perfect conditions and fellow travelers who stayed up watching and alerting the rest of us. All-in-all an incredible journey.”

Must do, must go trip!

Italy & Greece

“Although I had a few mishaps on the trip, I had someone to guide me the whole way. Being in a foreign country for the first time when things don’t go as planned can be very scary. After things settled down for us, we were able to enjoy new friends and experiences. Must do, must go trip!”
