Itinerary

Day 1: Overnight Flight

Board your overnight flight bound for London. Your adventure begins tomorrow, so sit back, shut your eyes, and do as the English do and try and catch some “zeds.”

Day 2: Arrive in London + Welcome Dinner

Welcome to London. Home of the royal fam, tea, a wonderfully different form of the English language, and the largest city in Western Europe. Brimming with history and unique architecture, you’ll soon understand why it’s one of the most visited cities in the world.

In the evening, it’s time for your Welcome Dinner. Enjoy local cuisine and drinks with fellow travelers at an authentic local spot. Then it’s on to wherever your new friends and the party takes you.

Today’s highlights
  • Land at the airport and meet a waiting EF representative.
  • Transfer to your hotel to check in and check out your room.
  • Get familiar with the area around your hotel with an introductory walk with your Tour Director including the River Thames, Trafalgar & Leicester Squares, and Covent Garden.

This trip was awesome. I would say it's a perfect starter for those who are first time travelers and want a taste of Europe. You get to visit a lot of the major big cities and make some stops along the way to each city. Later on, if you want to come back to the UK, you'll know...

Incredible trip, but…

Anonymous traveler, traveled in Apr 2024

This trip was truly incredible. All the places we saw were amazing, and I left for home really feeling like I saw everything I had hoped to see. I rated this trip 3 stars, though, because some of the hotels were awful, the group dynamics were pretty degraded by the end of the...
