"I was very displeased by this trip and regret signing up for it because I feel I could have gotten more out of my money. I paid almost 4000.00, actually probably a bit more of that because we had to pay for the "extra trips" which should have been included. The locations of the hotels where we stayed were really far away from the actual cities and having to share one bed with a total stranger was a bit too cheap. The prices at this time were lower than the high season so there should have been no problem getting us prime locations. If that happened we would not have to pay for the extra fares to get to the various cites. I feel this company is ripping college kids off. Although I made the best of the experience, I would not recommend this trip to anyone else. Hopefully many changes will be made. "

"I went on New Years 2014 London and Paris not knowing anyone and having never been abroad before, and I can easily say that it was the best experience of my life. There were a few issues, mostly with the Ministry of Sound excursion (no shuttle to it, a lot of other things promised that we didn't get) but honestly I look back and remember nothing but the good times like how I partied in a DJ booth with my new best friends and met some crazy locals, so it didn't really matter in the end. I did so many things that I never would have imagined and met some amazing people, both locals and fellow travelers; it's life-changing. They're not kidding when they say that your group connects instantly and you make life-long friends! One tip? Don't go with everything planned out. Of course a few things that matter to you, but know that you won't see/do everything and that it's okay if you don't! Having an open mind and a willingness to go outside your comfort zone is the best way to travel. Our EF tour guide, Vasilis, really allowed us to have that exploration time as well as fit in important and touristy things which was perfect. It's hard traveling alone, especially if it's your first time abroad, but I think that's the best way to do it. Everyone's new and everyone's looking for something or wanting an adventure, and that bond really connects people together in a way I don't think any other group setting could.
Go."

"I wasn't sure exactly what to expect on a group tour, I just knew that after already traveling Thailand and Paris as a solo traveler I wanted to give it a go. I'm so glad that i did. Everyone in this group was so great! i have made amazing friends and the TD, Fran was so sweet and funny and such joy to be around and to learn from. Campaigning for a reunion! :) Thank you EF!"

"It was really cool. Loved it. Would do it again."

"This trip was a lot of fun and it was so much fun to meet knew people. Realize this though, it is expensive in Europe and you do not realize how expensive it is until you get over there. That part was kind of a bummer. Only having breakfasts included can be difficult. The hotel we got in Berlin was amazing! It was in the middle of all the action, however, in Prague we did not find that at all. We were far away from everything and it was a long train ride there and back and then a ten minute walk. Also, in Munich we had a decent location, still a long train ride in."

"My trip exceeded all my expectations. My tour director was awesome, the places we went in Spain were incredible, and the people I met on this trip were amazing. I made plenty of new friends and will remember this trip for the rest of my life. Hands down best trip I've ever taken."

"EF College break is amazing. This company is extremely trustworthy, efficient, organized, and most of all it helped me live my dream of touring Europe. I went to the New Years Europe tour and I could not have picked a better tour. I was a bit hesitant at first on how a group of 30 students were going to be able to explore and take-in 9 countries and countless cities in only 16 days...but EF made it happen. The flights, transportation, hotels, excursions...all taken care of immaculately. Even though it was only a few days in each city, we were all still able to immerse ourselves and made unforgettable memories. The best part of EF college break are the fellow college students you meet during the tour; and of course your tour director! We were all like a famly by the end of the trip. Were all already planning for our next trip with EF very soon!"

"I went on the 16 day new years European tour. I had a blast! I went with my roommate from college which was a very good idea because it made rooming situations better since I already knew and trusted one of the people I was staying with. I thought my tour director was very good at organizing events outside of what was covered through the tour. Everything that costs a little extra, I feel was worth it. There is plenty of free time too so that you can see other things. I would recommend EF College Break to anyone who is new to traveling and wants to experience the both the tourist aspect of travel as well as gain local experiences."

"My name is Hassan "Hasi" Barzani and I just recently graduated as an undergraduate student from The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) in August 2013. I just recently came back from my first EF College Break Trip by doing the 16 days European Roadtrip. This trip was an post-graduate gift for all of my hard working years through schooling. While doing this trip, it was a life-changing experience that I will live with forever. Ef Tours staff did their job at all-times above and beyond their call of duty. The students attending in my group were like one big happy family at the end of the trip. I do plan on doing another trip with this amazing company this summer hopefully both in Spain and Greece. This will be a great way before late August 2014, I plan on taking my talents to the Windy City of Chicago, IL for work and graduate school. GO EF COLLEGE BREAK GO! GO EF TOURS GO! Sign up for a life-changing cause! "

"I traveled with EFCB this past summer on the 30 day Grand Tour of Europe that travels to eight countries. I loved that I could cross so many places off my bucket list with one trip. My favorite part was traveling with other people from around the country. We were all around the same age and had the same mindset: to get the most adventure as possible out of these 30 days and make this trip the experience of a lifetime. EFCB made my dream of traveling Europe come true because their trips totally eliminated the stress of finding hotels and how to get from one country to the next. Our awesome tour director, Anja, took care of that and we just got to focus on what fun things to do in each city."

"I had so much fun on my trip! I did the European Road Trip for 16 days and im so happy i did it. I did way more than I thought or would have done if I didnt travel with EF. My tour director was very informative and wonderful to be around, he was the guy we all went to with all our questions and needed advice on where to go, where to eat and what to do on our free time. I am planing my next trip with EF already and I am excited to go somewhere new and adventurous with new people."

"EF College Break is definitely the smart way to travel! Not only do you get a tour guide that stays with you the entire trip, but an EF Trip Consultant comes as well to ensure the trip runs smooth. I met some of the best people on the trip, and I still keep in touch with them! As a matter of fact, we are planning a reunion EF trip for the summer. I can't imagine having a better experience in Europe! "

"I recently returned from EF College Break's London, Rome, and Paris Trip, and it was one of the best experiences of my life! I had never been to Europe before, and I couldn't have asked for a better way to experience the best of each of these three cities!They are all great cities with awesome people! I have to thank EF College Break for such a well organized trip. Each hotel was great, and the balance between guided tours and free time was perfect for me. I never got the sense that I was being limited to only seeing what my tour guides wanted me to experience. I appreciated the opportunities to go explore on my own, and have my own little adventures. At the same time, having the hotel and flight arrangements taken care of for me allowed me to focus all my attention on having a great time, rather than worrying about all the trip details. Mark,our tour director, definitely exceeded my expectations. He did a great job of informing us travelers of the best spots in town to explore, shop, and dine. Not once did I ever feel that he didn't have things under control, or that certain plans were disorganized. He was very knowledgeable about each city, and he was very good at clearly stating important information to us, such as a particular rendezvous point, or time of departure. Once again, I want to thank everyone at EF College Break for an excellent trip. My life has definitely been changed by this experience. Not only has this journey changed the way I see the larger world, but also changed how I view my life back home. I am very blessed to have had the opportunity to experience new cultures, meet new people, and see how there is so much to discover in this world."

"EF is a great way to travel! I have gone a few times before without the company and it was a whole different experience. I did the European Panorama in Summer of 2013, and I had the time of my life! EF made traveling so much easier and less stressful! Everything is set up for you, all you need to do is show up and have a great time traveling the world with a great group of people. I didn't know anyone on my trip, but came home with 40 new friends. They allow you free time as well, so if you want to escape the plans at any time, you're able to! I loved traveling with EF so much, that I already booked my second trip (St. Paddy's Day in Ireland)! I highly recommend using EF!!!"

"EF college break has provided me with memories that will last me a lifetime. I've been on 3 trips and can say I've made friends that I still keep in contact with to this day with all of them and they are from all around the nation. I hope to inspire others to travel because it truly is a unique experience that I wouldn't trade for anything in the world. From the food, to the sights, and to the countless locals that I've met and shared many memories with. I could write on for days on end about my unforgettable memories and all the funny, wild stories I could tell. I only hope that anyone reading this finds the courage within themselves to take the step of signing up and wandering out into the world with this amazing company. EF college break has never failed to provide a spectacular trip for me in which I am worry free in terms of transportation and satisfying places to stay in each city. Words cannot describe my experiences with due justice. All I can hope is that you may take the step to experience it for yourself and cherish each moment because you'll miss it all dearly when you get back. I wish for you to have the same funny stories, priceless memories, and breathtaking moments that I've accumulated in different areas of the world thanks to ef college break. EF college break, thanks for all the memories and for helping me grow as much as I have as an individual. To all my fellow travelers, salude! "
