Why I partner with EF…

19 of 25

Our safety partner

Local support and insight worldwide

EF’s Safety and Incident Response Team

Rigorous health standards

24/7 Tour Director and chaperone team support

Let’s talk about safety. I’ve done my research and feel incredibly confident partnering with EF.

EF has our back, they’ve thought of everything, and I trust their safety policies
They have multiple programs in place to help keep us safe
EF will be right there to support us (locally, globally, pre-tour and on-tour) to help us through any situations that arise
Bottom line: we are safer traveling with EF than we ever would be on our own.

They have policies to protect our investment pre-tour (which will cover in a minute), but they also provide us with a lot on tour:

Local support and Insight

As you have already seen, EF is a global company! Because of this, EF has local knowledge to keep our groups safe no matter where we are in the world.

Safety & Incident Response Team

• EF’s has a team of experts located around the world, their #1 priority is safety

• They are always ready to respond to ensure that a train strike or a sprained ankle won’t slow us down

Their emergency support team is available 24/7, 365 days a year

Rigorous health standards

EF has enhanced safety precautions and procedures that cover everything from cleanliness to adjusting tours as needed.

24/7 Tour Director and chaperone team support

• In traveling with EF, there is a support team, from our Tour Director to myself, to my chaperones

Flexible payment options

September 22nd

And finally, here is why we’re planning so far in advance. EF offers a variety of ways to pay for this experience. The easiest and most common ways to pay are the bi-weekly and monthly payment options, which allow you to budget for your tour just like any monthly expense.

Bi weekly

Bi-weekly payments are (X dollars) after the initial $95 dollar fee

Monthly

The most popular way to pay with EF is on a monthly basis, and if you enroll by our deadline, the monthly payments are (X dollars) a month.

Pay in full

For those who want to pay in full you can do that too

Adults can travel too

Same easy options. The price is a bit different.

Discount

And another reason I’m planning right now, is that if you enroll by my deadline – you will get a discount off this price.

Manual Payment Plan

If you need more options, you can also select EF’s manual payment plan which follows a set invoicing schedule. Just give EF’s Traveler Support team a call and they can help. This plan does require some additional fees paid upfront to enroll in in addition to the $95 fee. This plan is not valid for EF’s Risk-free enrollment period.
