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 can’t 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 it’s brought our family closer together. Albert Englewood, Parent Saint John, New Brunswick EF Educational Tours
