Read what girls, leaders, and others are saying about their EF travel experiences.
The girls in my troops have used these trips as building blocks for their future. Some have studied abroad and some have moved away from home, while others have found jobs that incorporate travel and meeting new people.
I use EF Educational Tours over other tour providers because of two concerns: safety and practicality. EF promises safety as much as humanly possible, and the trips are practical because you know upfront what is expected from EF and from you.
I never realized how important international travel is and the effect it has on girls not only in the U.S., but also around the world. The experience is one that I will never forget.
The trip opened up my eyes to the wider world around me in a whole new way.
The trip became my new most significant cross-cultural experience. I met Girl Guides from Ireland, Holland, England, and Japan and by getting to know them, I gained a new appreciation for our sisterhood.
The best experience of the entire trip was going to Our Chalet, learning about its history, and what they do for girls all over the world. To know that there is so much of the world outside of my own little sphere is not only comforting but also inspiring.
At Pax Lodge, we got to learn about WAGGGS, be part of a pinning ceremony, and we even got to indulge in a customary British tradition: high tea with scones! Going on this trip has inspired me to do more global projects, and be more involved.
