Our itinerary:

All travelers are responsible for securing necessary documentation Carry a copy of your passport with you and also leave a copy at home. Non-U.S. citizens may require special visas or other travel documents. Passports and visas Valid passports are required for all travelers. Name and gender listed on your EF account must exactly match passport information. Passports must be valid for 6 months after tour.

EF will use the emergency contact list if they need to communicate any information while we’re on tour. Emergency contacts cannot be traveling with this group and must be available for the duration of the tour. Confirm your emergency contacts at least 30 days prior to departure. Make sure your information is correct and up to date. All changes can be made on your personalized website. If you are contacted with an emergency, call the next person on your list to relay the information. Emergency contacts

Bus driver: $3 per day per participant $3 per day x 10 days of tour = $30 per person Tour Director: $6 per day per participant $6 per day x 10 days of tour = $60 per person Local guides: $1-2 per local guide per participant Tipping Total: $92 per traveler

ATMs are the best way to get money. Don’t bring traveler’s checks, which can be difficult to cash. Notify your bank or credit card company that you’ll be abroad. Bring the equivalent of $ in the currency of your arrival destination. We are responsible for our lunches and tipping. Spending money

Packing Pack light: We will be responsible for loading our own luggage on and off the bus and into hotels. You are responsible for any luggage handling fees charged by the airlines. See the fees at eftours.com/baggage eftours.com/baggage Carry any valuables or medications in your EF backpack or carry-on. Pack a change of clothes in your carry-on in case your luggage is lost. A full packing list can be found in the Tour Handbook or at eftours.com/packinglisteftours.com/packinglist

In-flight meal requests Contact the airlines at least 72 hours prior to departure. Baggage allowance Confirm baggage allowance with each airline before departure. You’re responsible for any associated fees. eftours.com/baggage eftours.com/baggage Seat assignments Our seats will be assigned at check-in. Your ticket Frequent flier miles cannot be accrued, and tickets are not eligible for upgrade. Flights

We’ll meet our Tour Director once we have cleared customs and claimed our baggage. We might have to wait at the airport for other groups. We will start the tour right away and won’t check in to our hotel until the end of the day. Staying awake throughout the arrival day is the best way to beat jet lag. Taking a nap might make you feel worse. Arrival

Hotels Generally, hotel rooms are smaller than in the U.S. Most hotels will not have air conditioning or elevators. Wi-Fi will not always be available, and when it is there may be a fee. Late check-ins may be necessary.

Students are roomed 3-4 per room in a combination of twin and shared double beds. Adults will share twin rooms with other adults. Students may be roomed with EF travelers from different schools.

Meals Breakfast typically includes cereal, bread, juice, coffee and tea. Lunch is on our own. Dinners will be a mix of local cuisine and familiar dishes and will be a preset meal for our entire group, rather than ordering from a menu. Food portions are smaller than they are in the U.S. Table water is included; other beverages are an additional cost. Inform us of any allergies.
