Why go?

Choosing where to go in Europe is tough, so why not see it all? This month-long adventure offers all the culture, art, history, and nightlife you’d get on a semester abroad, but we replaced the classrooms with Mediterranean beaches, the Swiss Alps, and the canals of Amsterdam. Disclaimer for Rome in 2025: Please be aware that due to the Jubilee and associated events taking place in Rome, there may be changes to our scheduled activities. This could include modifications to timings, relocation, or cancellations.

What you'll get

  • Round-trip flights & airport transfers (or book 'em yourself)
  • 28 nights in handpicked accommodations
  • 28 breakfasts
  • 2 dinners
  • Expert Tour Director
  • 24/7 support from our travel gurus
  • 8 insider city tours with a local guide
  • Seine River cruise in Paris

Picture yourself

  • Gazing at the lights of the Eiffel Tower, sipping champagne
  • Biking past windmills in the Dutch countryside
  • Yodeling from atop the majestic Swiss Alps
  • Witnessing the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace
  • Tossing a coin into the Trevi Fountain (tip: right hand over left shoulder)

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, enjoy a Welcome Dinner of local cuisine and drinks with fellow travelers at an authentic local spot. Afterwards, you’re free to take the party elsewhere!

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 Convent Garden.
