We believe that the world is a better place when people try to understand one another. Since 1965, EF has helped millions of people see new places, experience new cultures, and learn new things about the world and about themselves. From our roots as a family business, we've grown into a global community of 52,000+ employees in over 110 countries. For nearly four decades, EF Educational Tours has helped thousands of Canadian students enjoy life-changing educational travel experiences. In that time, we've developed relationships with local experts and organizations in each country we design tours for, ensuring that we can deliver both authentic cultural experiences and a safe, hands-on learning environment that empowers students to evolve.

With offices in 115 countries, EF shows up for our travelers by already being there. We don’t just work in these countries—we call them home. In fact, EF team members live in nearly every one of our tour destinations. That means we have the local knowledge to keep our groups safe, and anywhere you go, you’ll have friendly faces nearby to offer a helping hand. When the chips are down, we have boots on the ground—you are always dealing with our team directly in any emergency.

Traveling with your students will be a group leader, chaperones and an EF Tour Director. EF group leaders and chaperones are all Canadian educators (past and present), invested in helping your teen discover the world through experiential education and immersive travel opportunities. Leading your teen on their trip of a lifetime will be an insightful, culturally connected Tour Director. Beyond sharing local insight and hidden gems, they’ll take care of your teen from the moment they arrive to the last goodbye. From hotel check-ins to route navigation, they handle the details so students can relax on tour and parents can breathe easy knowing your teen is in good hands.
