"The best thing you could spend your money on. I promise you. Changes your life. Signing up for my 3rd trip with them today."
"EF College Break was an amazing experience, but it was not perfect. On the London, Paris, and Rome trip before the pub crawl we were promised that transportation was going to be provided, so alot of the girls got really cute (including myself) with high heels. What EF really meant was that they were giving you a map outlined of where the pubs were and a tour guide. That was the transportation provided. Our feet hurt so badly by the end of the night! I felt terribly misled and if I knew that was how the evening was gonna go I wouldn't have done it. In Rome, the hotel we stayed at was beautiful. It was close to the Vatican but far from the nightlife, and Rome barely has public transportation so expect your feet to hurt some more. The one suggestion I would give to EF CollegeBreak is that we do soooooooo much walking and it really takes a toll on the body so providing other ways to get around the city would be greatly appreciated."
"I have traveled with EF three times so far and am traveling for the fourth Tim in a few months! I have never experienced traveling with a company like EF before. Everything is so well
Organized. I've tried comparing prices of trips between EF and other companies, and EF is always the one I choose. Not only does it give you more for your money but it makes the traveling affordable and fun. I have made many friends over the years that I still keep in touch with. The guides are always so helpful and make the trip much more exciting! I recommend this company to everyone in college looking to
Travel. "
"Last summer I went on EF's grand tour of europe for 30 days, and it was the best 30 days of my life! I saw so many amazing sights, and bonded with my fellow travelers. I love that I didn't have to plan too much -- EF took us to see the main sights, and then gave us great suggestions for places or things to do during our free time. I would definitely recommended traveling with EF, and I hope to do many more trips with them! "
"I have used EF College Break. I'm an actual customer and not some paid idiot sitting behind a desk, trying to make up some review to get your attention. I went through EF for 2 reasons.
1: They have AMAZING trips
2: Airfare IS included in the price.
Also if you are a bit leery about shelling out that kind of cash, they have monthly payments that work just as well. I have told my friends about EF and they are AMAZED at what you get for the price you pay. It's well worth it.
I took a deep breath and signed up for the European Panorama trip. 25 days in Europe when I have NEVER left the U.S.A. before. But WOW! The sights and things that I saw and had the chance to experience was well worth it. History class doesn't do it justice. And now I'm using EF again and going to China for 12 days. If you have the chance to use EF do SO! Stop saying "tomorrow." And do it TODAY!"
"I absolutely loved EF College Break! I had a terrific experience throughout the whole process from booking to departure and even better through the actual trip! definitely recommend and plan to book with them again! "
"This was my first major trip outside of North America and EF made it well worth it! The best thing about traveling with EF was having our flights, trains, buses, etc. taken care of. The transportation really adds up if you try to do this on your own. I went on the Grand Tour of Europe so I was able to see tons of cultural things but we also had plenty of opportunity to go to bars, relax on beaches, and do other "fun" stuff. So it might seem pricey compared to planning the trip on your own but the extra cost for the convenience was beyond worth it! "
"EF College Break is a fantastic company. I had the time of my life on my tour of the 'Emrald Isle' last fall and met so many great friends along the way. I encourage anyone 18-26 to travel with them they are so helpful and affordable because of the payment plan option! If you are scared of traveling alone, don't be! I did and I wouldn't have changed it, I met more people that way and got out of my shell! Honestly, my trip with EF changed my life if it wasn't for them I wouldn't be moving to Ireland in the fall!"
"Absolutely amazing, can't think of anything bad to say about EF. Great tour guide, great hotels, great customer service."
"EFCB is deceiving with their "2 days and 1 night!" You arrive in the city at around noon, check in, possibly change/ freshen up, then go out and see the city. The next day, you leave after breakfast. My idea of 2 days is 48 hours. I was disappointed because it felt like were always rushing from city to city, with never enough time to see everything that I wanted to see. I met some great people, and our tour guide was awesome, but all in all, I wish they would be a little more honest upfront. Maybe they could not try to cram so many cities in?
Also, who picks the hotels?! Our hotel in London was a 15 minute walk to the nearest tube station (through a not so nice part of the city), then another 15+ ride into anywhere in the city that you would actually want to go. Our hotel in Florence was at least a 20 minute walk into the city. We visited a lot of beautiful places; its a shame we didn't get to experience them more by being able to roll out of bed and walk outside right into the heart of the cities we've all dreamed about."
"Great travel agency. Affordable, thorough and always reachable for questions and help. I had the time of my life and cannot wait to travel again!"
"I had the absolute best time on the EF College break trip I took. I got to see the world and meet amazing people. Thanks to EF the logistics of the trip were completely taken care of and we got to enjoy Europe without any of the stress! I would take another EF trip in a heartbeat! "
"Last August, my sister and I spent eight days in Ireland. It had been a long time dream of mine to visit and I finally saved enough money to make it come true. The EF College Break tour group was perfect for us because it allowed us to pay monthly until the trip took off. First day, we visited the Guinness brewery in Dublin and had a ‘welcome mixer’ to meet our fellow travelers. Everyone was really nice and fun to travel with. Especially our tour guide Kaytee and our driver Phil. They definitely made our experience much more enjoyable. Their knowledge and their hilarious stories on the bus made our trip extra special. The next day we took a sightseeing tour of Dublin, where we saw the Ha’penny bridge and Oscar Wilde’s house. We also visited the 800 year old St. Patrick’s cathedral. We then left for county Cork and spent the day there. The next day we went to the Blarney castle to kiss the blarney stone. We had some free time in Blarney and hung out with locals. Be prepared to laugh and drink when you hang out with the locals. They are all true comedians and will offer to buy you many pints. We then drove to county Kerry along the beautiful scenic route of the ring of Kerry and visited bog village; a recreation of a rural Irish village from the early 1800’s. On the way to the city of Galway on the west coast of Ireland, we stopped and viewed the gorgeous, 700 ft tall, cliffs of Moher. On our free night in Galway we met some awesome people at a pub and ended up hanging out with them all night. We exchanged info and still keep in touch. My sister and I plan to go back and visit our new Irish friends! On our last day we took a trip to the Aran islands, where Gaelic is the official language. The highlight here was Dún Aengus, a 2,000-year-old fort whose walls go right up to the side of a cliff high above the sea. Ireland is a fantastic and breathtakingly beautiful place. Never had I met so many kind and funny people in one country. It's truly an experience I'll never forget and thanks to EF College break's help, I made one my life long dreams come true. "
"Ef college break really had an impact in my life. As a young traveler I got to experience life in other places, while alone with complete strangers who then became family. EF will make life easier in a couple of days without asking for much. I met wonderful people, learned different cultures and witnessed breathtaking moments. Thank you EF college break for creating trips of endless laughs and blissfulness. "
"I've used EF for two trips. I went on the NYE Amsterdam, Paris and London and Spain, France and Italy trips! Both times made life long friends and had the time of my life. I leave later this week to go with EF on the Costa Rican Adventure trip and I am so excited! All my tour directors have been so helpful and made the trips worry free and fun filled :)"
"I went on the Amsterdam, Paris, & London tour last summer and it was awesome!!
It was my first time in Amsterdam and it was the perfect way to start the trip! We did have a lot of free time there so my friends and I really got to know the city. Check out the Artis Zoo during your free time and the "IAMSTERDAM" sign is less crowded later in the day. Also try the fries with mayonnaise!
I have been to Paris and London but during winter and it was freezing so going again in the summer it was like a brand new experience. EF does all the work so you just have to show up! They got us into the Chateau de Versailles, to the top of the Eiffel Tower, hop-on hop-off bus tour in London (best way to explore the city), and other neat things. It was nice not having to worry about buying tickets and scheduling things. There are a lot of other optional opportunities (bike ride in the Netherlands countryside, cabaret show in Paris, etc)... TAKE THEM ALL! Everyone in my group did everything and they're all worth the costs.
It's kind of a shorter trip so it did feel a bit rushed, I would've liked some more time to appreciate my surroundings (especially in Paris) so make good use of your time and wear comfortable shoes!
Our tour guide Matt was AWESOME. He really made the trip so much better and was patient with the rambunctious group of American college students. Also, you'll make a lot of new friends on the tour! My whole group got along wonderfully and we all became friends.
Why you should go EF College Break tours:
-fun opportunities
-no stress
-great guide
-cool group"
