How does group travel work?

• What is group travel?> Groups with similar tour preferences and departure dates are combined to share a

motorcoach

• Why does EF combine groups?> Makes tours equally affordable for groups of 6 or 40> Low prices means more students can see the world> Allows students to meet other travelers from around the country

• How does EF combine groups?> Flexible date range –

> Spring Break: can have groups depart for tour 2 days before or 2 days after requested departure date > Summer Tour: can have groups depart for tour to begin 4 days before and after requested departure date

> Similar tour options –> EF asks for 2nd and 3rd choice tours from all groups
