EF Go Ahead Tours for Positive User Reviews
✓ Christian Tour of IsraelAll your communication from EF was excellent. Our tour guide Rami Abu Hanna was superb. I can’t imagine anyone knowing more than him. He cared so much about us and simply made the trip for us. Our bus driver was incredible. The hotels were really nice with a large amount of food selection. The only negative for me was the fact that there was a minor change needed on my wife’s ticket. United Airlines charged us $920 to do this. As a partner airline of EF Tours, I would have thought that someone in the company could have gone to bat for me. That was very disappointing. I’m upset that the airline would feel okay about doing this to someone that was already paying a lot of money to fly with them. It’s just not right..Version: 5.2.8
✓ Landscape of Scotland and IrelandTom was superb and extremely knowledgeable. He seemed to anticipate our needs and addressed them accordingly. I have traveled many many places and I can honestly say that he is the best guide I have had the pleasure to travel with. Patience, humor and respect combined with knowledge is quite unique. Hope I’ll have the honor to travel with him in the future..Version: 5.1.0
✓ My EF TravelsMy experiences with EF Tours have included 3 trips to Europe with middle and high school students. Besides the incredible sites and sounds that we were introduced to, the EF guides took us to another level of travel with their knowledge, expertise, and ability to entertain and engage young people (and adults) in the history and interesting stories of the places we visited. I’m thankful to continue my travels with EF Go Ahead Tours..Version: 4.3.5
✓ Italy tour by Randolph RommI must start with congratulating David, he was a superb tour director. His knowledge and sense of humor made the sightseeing very enjoyable. I was very dissatisfied with the location of the hotels. They were all so far away from all the sights there was absolutely nothing to do when we went back to them. You could not even get a snack or drink at neither of the hotels in Venice or Florence. They had no room service and most nights the restaurant did not even open. While I enjoyed the tour very much I felt it could of been much better if our accommodations were more centrally located..Version: 5.1.2
✓ Greatest TripI went on my first EF Go Tour the end of October. I went to Egypt with cruise on the Nile. I had Hala as my guide, I was a single traveler. It was the best!! They thought of everything. It was so much more than I could have imagined! It would not have been 1/2 as good without our excellent guide. She was so informative and friendly. I recommend this tour to everyone!!!!! Love it!!!.Version: 5.1.2
✓ This app is super helpful!I was recently on a tour and this app was so helpful! They have a daily itinerary which helped remind me what we were doing. Our group had fun sharing our favorite pictures through the photo album. We were traveling through several countries and were dealing with 3 different currencies. The app has a currency converter that — IS EVEN AVAILABLE WITHOUT BEING CONNECTED TO WIFI !!! When I discovered this I literally told everyone on the bus. Super helpful!.Version: 5.0.9
✓ Hanoi, VietnamThis was a lovely trip. One thing I would add is a shopping trip in the Old quarter for people who arrived earlier in the day. This option is easily added as an optional excursion. While driving through was a fun way to explore old Market, shopping there would be an awesome addition..Version: 5.1.3
✓ Interesting history n beautiful countriesWe really enjoyed the historical details and stories given by our Tour Director Nicola and each city and area we stopped at were really interesting and beautiful. I loved the drive around the Adriatic Sea and the greenery that we saw. Pero, our driver, was great at getting out of tight spaces. Don’t miss the tour if you want to see an unspoiled country with a history of many invaders..Version: 5.3.6
✓ Sicily tour, ending October 2.Ione Kerr, our tour director, was superb. Knowledgeable and well spoken, she described things with an unusually articulate eloquence and precision. Humorous and generous as well. Our tour was impacted by Covid. Nine of us had to spend five days in isolation in our hotel. Ione made all the revised arrangements so as to make us as comfortable as possible. We regret to have missed so much, but remain impressed by EF Tour’s’ efficiency and excellence..Version: 5.3.7
✓ Great travel appI have been using EF app for a three trips, what a great app. One of the main reasons I travel with Go Ahead tour due to the app. Please engage the tour director and other tourist in the group to use it too. Two of the trips I took , only hall of the tourists in the group are actually using it, that is a shame and defeated the purpose. One of the beauties I really appreciate the app —my old trips are still in my account that I can always go back, even to chat with old friends👍.Version: 5.2.6
✓ Must have travel app!For anyone traveling with Go Ahead Tours, look no further: this is the king of apps. Being able to access your tour info while offline and traveling is so convenient. Before tour it was so easy to make payments, buy excursions, and prep for my trip. Would recommend..Version: 4.0.9
✓ Terrific TourI just completed an EF tour of Portugal. It was my first group travel experience, and I was somewhat skeptical at first because I have always travelled alone or with just one other person, but I found it satisfying, stimulating, and fun. Every step was well planned, under expert guidance, with enough free time for individual exploration. I enjoyed the company of my fellow travelers while learning a great deal from the guides who gave us a fascinating overview of each major site along the route. I enthusiastically recommend this tour!.Version: 5.1.4
✓ Go Ahead APPThis app is great and easy to use! It is so easy to track every detail needed to prepare for our trip! It is convenient to understand everything we need to know traveling to Italy. The invoice and payment section is great to keep on top of all transactions! Thank you to EF GO AHEAD TOURS!!.Version: 5.3.7
✓ ItalyFrom start to finish this trip was exceptional! Our Italian group guide Alessandra was One of the best parts of the whole experience! She is a great communicator and made sure all 21 of us had our needs met. The places we explored were the highlights of the area. All the travel arrangements were well thought out and ran so smoothly. This was a trip of a lifetime I will never forget!.Version: 4.1.2
✓ Central America Tour-Costa Rica partOur Costa Rican part of the Central American Go Ahead Tour in January of 2024 was guided by Gerardo L. He was an excellent guide in that he knew the historical country origins well and gave us a great education forthwith. Gerardo was also humorous and very flexible as he was able to accommodate the weather and specific needs of fellow travelers. To our delight he spontaneously and in a timely manner was able to avoid crowds and make sure we that experienced the extraordinary biodiversity of the region. We highly recommend going on tour with Gerardo. Andy and Julie.Version: 5.3.8
✓ Australia tourThis trip was one of the best trips of my life!! I give it five stars. Jose was the guide and was excellent. He did over and above to make everyone s experience excellent. I’ll only use EF from now on. Australia was beautiful. Everyone should get to experience it. The penguin parade was “ the best day ever”. Australian people are flriendly and so helpful!.Version: 5.2.0
✓ Egypt and the Nile - WOWFrom the very start of the trip we were taken care of, the program and tour director were top notch and the excursions did not disappoint. It seemed each day was better than the last. The pinnacle was how our group bonded throughout this shared adventure. Truly one of the best trips I’ve ever experienced..Version: 5.1.8
✓ Highlights of England Scotland and Ireland tourMy first tour with EF It went wonderful! In 10 days we visited so many new places, meet amazing people, tried delicious food! The Tour Director Kurt who took care of every details along the way made this tour very pleasant and memorable! The local excursion guides were knowledgeable and friendly, the special thanks to amazing drivers! I am planning to book more tours with EF Maggie Azadova.Version: 5.1.1
✓ Belize 9 days tripThis trip was my first solo traveling after many years of traveling with my husband It was a very nice trip. Our tour guide Roberto when above and beyond to make our experience excellent. The choices of Hotels was great and the food most of the time traditional and satisfying. I will only add more time in the last Hotel called Sleeping Giant in the rain forest because that resort is excellent..Version: 4.2.0
✓ Great Travel Company!Go Ahead has served us well with all the trips we’ve taken with them. The tour guides are top notch; friendly, very knowledgeable and go above and beyond to make the trip fulfilling and enjoyable. We’ve been pleased with the accommodations, as well as any included meals. It’s always worth taking the extra excursions as they add so much to the trip. I love it that they take care of everything! All we need to do is show up!.Version: 5.3.7
✓ First day in LondonIt was helpful that Mike, the guide, was aware of our need to rest after the all-night flight. And having the substantial meal after the introductory meeting was pleasant. I wish there had been some excursions planned to cover the ones that had to be cancelled. It was a disappointment to have not had any excursions in London due to the group travel technicalities. As a new comer to European travel, the excursions are important especially when promised at the get go..Version: 5.2.8
✓ Epic Time in GreeceThis is our 5th tour with GoAhead Tours! With every tour we want to go again. Unfortunately, time is at a premium. We have to fit so much in and taking a tour is the best way. Artemis was our main guide. He handled everything with our group. Three islands in one week. The bus drivers on each island got us to our hotels, ships, and tours. Most of our group had big check-in, plus carry-on luggage. We had packed light with a carry-on only. We bought olive oil at our first stop, and had to check in that bag with the rest of our group. Everyone was wonderful. We would recommend taking the catamaran excursion for a fun swimming party. Love you ❤️❤️❤️.Version: 5.3.2
✓ Solo tour Ireland October 2023How green can you be? Green with envy that my property doesn’t look like I saw in Ireland? Wonderful trip although far to short to take in so much history and historic places. Many great solo travelers that made the trip so pleasant. The people in Ireland were so kind and informative. Already making plans for a revisit so I would have more time to spend at historical venues and less time shopping ..Version: 5.3.7
✓ Great before, during, and after TourLove being able to not just dream but plan future adventures. Then, once booked and then on tour, I can see the full itinerary add optional excursions easily, connect with the others on the tour, share pictures with my group, and chat with my tour director. After- I live I can stay connected with my group, pool pictures, and do it all over again!!!.Version: 5.1.1
✓ ItineraryI’m wondering why there is nowhere to load the TD itinerary for my travellers to view? I am having to use the chat to provide the travellers of the days itinerary. My travellers and myself are not receiving notifications when additions or changes have been added to the app..Version: 5.0.16
✓ Two Texans’ 50th Anniversary Trip to IrelandIreland was everything we hoped and much we could never have expected! Our bus driver, Tommy was perfectly skilled and charming. Cathal, our tour director, was the best of the best. His love for his country, people and culture was contagious. We came away feeling an affection for all the things he shared with us. He answered questions after questions patiently and thoroughly. A great mixture of big city and country side, I especially enjoyed the sheep farm and being treated to the local singer at lunch. There were too many thrills to mention! We met a bunch of strangers in Dublin on day one and left a great group of friends in Belfast on our last. Thank you for an experience we will never forget!.Version: 5.3.7
✓ Sept 21-October 4 with Michael Z group coordinator Maureen HerrityThis was such an awesome trip. Everything was first class and the attention to detail and making sure we had everything we needed and more. We were treated like royalty everywhere we went. I would highly recommend this trip with tour guide Michael Zlottis to everyone..Version: 4.1.2
✓ Linda and CharityVanesa , our tour director , went above and beyond with her job ! Not only was she Extremely kind and helpful, she was by far the most knowledgeable historian I have ever listened to !!! She also tells you stories packed with humor , as to keep you interested , because the amount of history she teaches you is mind blowing ! The only thing I would suggest is double checking with the group in the hotel lobby ( before we get on the bus ) to make sure everyone has their passports (if necessary that day ) . Also , making sure (if passports are need that day ) to post it on our guide sheet. One day when passports were mandatory, it was not posted at all on the guide sheet , but it was posted on the app . There is probably always one idiot in the group that forgets to look at the app!!! In conclusion , Vanesa was by far the best tour director we have Ever had ! She is absolutely the best !! We love her and hope to do future tours with her !.Version: 5.2.8
✓ Germany Switzerland Austria tourThis has been the best tour of a life time. Although I had a hard time waking I was so pleased with my tour director and fellow travelers who were extremely patient with me. My husband was tested positive for Covid on the last day and as soon as I found out, I informed our tour director immediately. We were both quarantined for 5 days, making sure all other travelers were safe. Our flight home was delayed however, the travel agency made arrangements for us to leave on the 6th day. I will definitely take another tour with EF in the future..Version: 5.0.15
✓ The best4th trip with go ahead and will continue. Always reliable and they’re committed to the best experience for all in all respects. I always know the lodging food excursions and transportation details will be good and I’ve never been disappointed. Sign up and then relax and enjoy for they sweat the details.Version: 5.0.8
✓ Amazing tour, Fantastic companyTravel is different these days, but Go Ahead is there every step of the way making your trip the best it can be. While in Scandinavia last week, there was a SAS pilot strike, my incredible tour director chartered is a bus and even found a quaint little town to stop for lunch 🥰 no words can describe how perfect it turned out. ❤️✈️🌍.Version: 5.0.12
✓ Great Customer ServiceI did a little research on tour groups so it was like taking a leap of faith that this company would take care of me & my concerns. So far, everyone that I’ve spoken to has been really helpful & kind. Looking forward to my trip in September..Version: 5.2.7
✓ Is Messaging Working?I am very happy with the app and have used it since my first tour in 2018. My only concern is the messaging and sharing comments on the traveler page. Are the other travelers seeing my comments? I have received zero responses. Are notifications triggered? Thank you..Version: 5.0.12
✓ Venice, Florence, RomeSeveral scheduling issues before the trip. Also a big fashion event happening in Florence while we were there limiting hotel choices. The hotels were nice and EF did make accommodations for problems. Our tour guide, Carmelo, was the best. Great personality and able to deal with all the different people in the group..Version: 5.2.8
✓ Grand Tour of EuropeI saw what I wanted to see but there was so much it is hard to recall details. The pace was fast and somewhat hard for me to keep up. A variety of ages in the group which became a positive moving baggage onto and off the trains. Good food. Hotel rooms satisfactory ranged to very nice. Tour director Kurt had extensive background and made us laugh. Good shopping in Italy..Version: 5.2.7
✓ Food and Wine : Campania, Puglia and Amalfi coast September 5-18One of the best tours I have taken. Anna is an awesome tour guide. She was engaging and attentive. She took care of every detail, even when the water was too rough for our excursion by boat, she managed to come up with an alternate plan. The small size of the group was great as it allowed for everyone to get to know one another. All of the sites we visited were wonderful. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone interested in visiting southern Italy. I would consider another trip if I was assured that Anna could be my tour guide..Version: 5.1.1
✓ Super HelpfulI love how everything is organized in one easy spot! This is especially helpful while on tour since you can see the itinerary everyday, review things directly on your phone and it even has a helpful money converter! If you’re traveling with Go Ahead Tours (which you should) this app is a must have!!.Version: 4.1.2
✓ Budapest Vienna etc tour.Tour guides very knowledgeable. Pleasant made us feel welcomed Tour director the best I’ve ever had after 3 other go ahead tours. Goes out of his way to help each one of us. He’s is very knowledgeable about every city country we visited. He makes me feel at home. I highly recommend him. I will promote EF to my friends..Version: 5.2.4
✓ Food and wine tour of SpainWhat a wonderful trip to Spain. Our tour was guided by Ana. She lead us with a lot of knowledge and interesting facts that let know about Spanish local customs followed by great food and wine. Our hotels were lovely and our group was small and fun. Ana also looked after us so well and had a lot of information. We also had great bus drivers and guides. We will go again!.Version: 5.2.7
✓ Wonderful experience (Food and Wine Tour of N.Italy Oct 21-Nov 1, 2023)My arrival was remarkable. After a long trip, I was met by a driver who drove me 2 hours (in a nice car) from Milan to Turin. I slept most of the way. When we arrived at the hotel, I was greeted by Simone who expedited my room check-in. Simone was an outstanding group leader. I found him to be genuine, personable, supportive, and informative. I enjoyed his sense of humour. I appreciated the pace of the tour and Simone’s collaborative adaptation to same. Personally, I think I’d prefer less moving from hotel to hotel. Having said that, I most enjoyed the Truffle tour and the final lunch held at the Valpolicella winery. The hotels each had their own challenges — the Turin hotel was hot and noisy (the a/c had been shut down for the season) and my room opened onto a 4 lane thoroughfare so I had to make a choice throughout the night about what was more conducive to sleep — decreasing heat or noise; the Italian Riviera hotel had a very small bathroom & construction happening just outside it; the hotel outside Verona was lovely but quite a distance into Verona (think approximately $40 cab fare one-way) so suppers were on site and I did not find the restaurant staff to be very friendly. While at the Francone Winery, we were told the bus would be secure and I left my backpack on board. Guess I should know better! When I returned from the luncheon, the zippers on my backpack were open. I’m quite fastidious so that surprised me. I checked the contents and breathed a huge sigh of relief that my passport and some money was still in my Fanny pack. I was uncertain how much money I’d left in the pack and thought perhaps there were 2 100 Euro bills as I’d visited an ATM a day or so earlier and had removed $300 Euros. I rarely spent cash, preferring to use my M/C. Because I was uncertain, I didn’t report my unrest to Simone until group members encouraged me to do so. I was pleased to hear that there’s a camera on the bus and footage from that time frame could be reviewed. As of this point, I have not heard the results. EF tour staff were good until just prior to my departure when I stopped receiving responses from Jason (Canada). My package from EF did not arrive before I left so will be in touch to receive the cookbook this apparently came in the package if I’ve not received it when I check my mail. I retuned from the tour feeling run down and tested positive for Covid (as did another group member who, as far as I know, is still in a hotel in Italy). I’ve felt quite sick but am still grateful to have embraced Europe once again following a travel hiatus since Covid first became an issue. Sincerely, Jan Carew.Version: 5.3.7
✓ England, Scotland and IrelandOur trip to England, Scotland and Ireland was INCREDIBLE!! Lexi Adams was our guide and she is amazing, so knowledgeable. She always had “bits and bobs” for every country/city we traveled to. We were pleased with the itinerary; there was lots of time spent on the coach but this allowed us to really appreciate the countryside and the people. Huge thumbs up for Lexi and the tour!!.Version: 5.0.11
✓ First time travelerTraveled to Switzerland, Germany and Austria. Our tour guide, Sebastian was great. He was knowledgeable and handled any issues that rose. Which we did have a couple of problems. First my wife and I had to have our room changed due to a bad smell and our daughter had to have her room changed due to the power not working. Our bus driver did an excellent job as well and I felt safe on the bus. Really enjoyed Switzerland. The stay in Lucerne was great. The local tour guide there was knowledgeable regarding the history of the area and provided a lot information. The scenery was fantastic. I would enjoy seeing Switzerland again. Stopped in Liechtenstein on the way to Germany. Not a lot of things to do there based on time issues but it was nice just being in a different country. The stay in Germany was nice. The old section of the town was full of history. Going from place to place was tricky at times not speaking or reading German. The first night in Austria was really enjoyable. I attended the Dinner with Mozart with my wife and daughter and it was great. I would highly recommend this excursion. The next night and day I was sick and could not go on that days tour. A Go Ahead tour representative checked on my status by phone and text message. All in all, we had a very nice time..Version: 5.2.8
