EF Traveler

So I know that there are some reviews that say that this app is trash but I don’t think that’s true it’s good for keeping track of your travel schedule it also helps with big groups it doesn’t have many flaws except one which is if you’re going by yourself don’t waste time downloading the app okay?

EF tours at the start seemed like a good way to help me and my family travel for a lower cost. However, the cost difference, no matter what it is (unless it is free) will never be worth what they have put us through. When we had all payed off our trips, we threw a celebration party as our accounts had said $0 left to pay for the entire trip. Unfortunately, they added 4,500 dollars a few weeks later just days before our trip. We have called them multiple times and they have said “don’t worry until after the trip” to us. It is hard to not worry about such a large unaffordable cost though. Also, the group we got paired with is EXTREMELY RUDE! When we were touring with a guide, they would talk over him about their friends or something irrelevant. Also, on the train, they told us to be quiet and wear headphones as some were trying to sleep, however, they talked so obnoxiously loud the entire time, unaware of their actions. After I talked to them about it and being respectful, they laughed in my face. VERY RUDE! Also, our tour guide is continuously rushing us everywhere and then we end up getting there with hours to spare and time that could have been spent exploring or seeing more. Such as when we left for the 2:30 train at 11. We waited in the station for over 2 hours after getting rushed out of London tower. Also, after a 7 hour plane ride (overnight) the next day we got no rest and the tour planned for us to walk 7.5-9 miles on less than 3 hours of rest and sleep. Overall it is not worth it to go with EF and most of us ended up disappointed. BOOK WITH A DIFFERENT COMPANY ‼️‼️‼️

LOVE IT!!! This app was a game changer for my travelers, but I suspect it was only as amazing as our Tour Director made it. She posted *everything*- breakfast times, daily departure times, and very detailed daily itinerary info (including free time suggestions- with links, prices, and info). Having the evaluation tools at my finger tips was great, too. Much better than passing the tablet around! Like other users, I had some initial problems logging in. Those issues were magically resolved after some follow-up with EF, and it started working a few days before departure. I didn’t use the payment tool, but in addition to paying for the excursions, I would like to see an update that allows me to see which travelers paid for each excursion. (Sometimes they forget or don’t know they were signed up.) I know this info is available on the website, but the app is easier to load and use while traveling.
