FOR STUDENTS

This is your tour

This whole experience revolves around you and your classmates. You’re going to try new foods together, after ordering them in a different language. You’ll discover new cultures, while uncovering new things about each other. On an EF Tour, the norms and routines of the school year disappear—suddenly, your world is full of new possibilities. The only question is... how will you explore them?

FOR STUDENTS

This is your tour

This whole experience revolves around you and your classmates. You’re going to try new foods together, after ordering them in a different language. You’ll discover new cultures, while uncovering new things about each other. On an EF Tour, the norms and routines of the school year disappear—suddenly, your world is full of new possibilities. The only question is... how will you explore them?

Let's get you ready for your trip!

Whether this is your first time travelling or not, you might be nervous about going on tour—here’s our advice: if you go into this experience with a willingness to step outside your comfort zone, we promise you’ll have an amazing time.

What to pack

You’ll have a backpack from us that stays with you throughout the day—this is for things like sunscreen, snacks, your water bottle, and stuff you would want to have on you. For everything else you need on the trip, a carry-on bag or suitcase should be able to hold your clothes, toiletries, and other items while being able to fit into an overhead bin.

Hotels & accommodations on tour

You'll spend most of your time on tour exploring and learning, but you should also know what to expect when you settle in for the night.

Travelling mindfully

The people, places, and cultures we visit welcome our travellers with open arms; the least we can do is be respectful in the way we behave in their home. When we’re on tour, we represent not only ourselves as individuals, but also our country as a whole; you might be the first Canadian a local has ever met (or will ever meet). Our Rules of the Road are designed so that everyone can enjoy their tour experience—your class, your teacher, and the wonderful locals you’ll meet.

Featured tours

Crafted by experts with decades of travel experience, our tours are built to provide relevant educational material, authentic cultural experiences, and most importantly: fun.
