    EF-Go Ahead is an incredible company. Our trip through ***********, *******, ******* and to ****** was nothing short of amazing! From our tour guide, Christian to the hotels, meals and excursions, it was top notch from start to finish! It was our 2nd trip with our family and we will definitely be going again!

    I fully recommend EF-Go Ahead Tours as an excellent travel company! A very good experience start-to-finish. Sales representatives were fully knowledgeable and helpful in answering all questions. Organized quite well and received helpful information prior to departure with reminders on items needed. Once group arrived, continued great service by tour coordinator and very thorough local guides. Experiences offered as part of package were well-curated and balance between included and free time was perfect. Hotel accommodations were very comfortable, and meals included in package were tasty and delicious. Overall, enjoyed every aspect and recommend highly.

    This was my first EF Go Ahead solo tour. It was fabulous. I just had to get on the plane, and everything was taken care of, down to the last detail. When I arrived in ********, there was a gentleman waiting(slight delay-but no worries, we found each other) to take me to the hotel to meet the others. The gentleman was professional and courteous. Upon arriving at the Hotel, I was warmly greeted by the Tour Director. He, too, was professional, courteous, and welcoming. This gentleman was very informative, knowledgeable about Portuguese and African history. He took us to all the assigned points of interest and places the locals frequented. He had backup plans for just in case (weather/closings), we didn't miss a beat. Most importantly, he made sure we had the opportunity to taste the local wines, desserts, and the local foods. He spoiled us and spoiled us!. Safety wasn't an issue. ******** is one of the safest countries in the world. Watch for the "Pickpocket" crime, which is non-confrontational/non-violent. Children cause a diversion, then young, well-dressed girls/women work in twos and 3's sweep in carrying large pocket books with side pockets to slip your items in. Our Tour Director versed us on how to carry ourselves (no backpack-left it on the bus. Carry inside the jacket. Some of us wore the slacks with the front zipper pockets. One of the ladies had a cell phone wristband. I ordered 5 for **************** when I got home. Trying to take pictures on the go and not having it slip out of your hands, or misplacing it, or having it snatched can be risky. Make sure you get the brand that has the adjustable wrist strap. Thank you, ****. I got away with a roll carry-on and a small backpack for a 1-week tour. I packed some toiletries that were not necessary. The hotels provided shampoo/conditioner/body wash. Do bring a washcloth or scrunchie loofah, ******** doesn't provide these in hotels. We had a great, personable group. I can't wait to book another Tour!.

    This is my second trip with them and it was just as wonderful as the last, our tour guide was wonderful and when she had to leave due to an illness she was replaced with another guide and it was smooth as can be. I like taking tours because the only thing we have to worry about is having a good time. We have already booked our next tour for 2026. All the people I have met on these they have all been going with the company on many many tours. We have been very very pleased with our experience so far it's like anything you have to be an aware consumer as well..

    EF go ahead is my go-to tour company. I have used them four times and found the company and the guides to be tiptop five stars. I'm already looking for my next one and I highly recommend EF to anyone who asks.

    Recently completed our third tour with ** in 3 years, and each one was well organized and delightful. We have found them to be excellent at communication, including thoroughness and follow-up. The tour director, who stays with the group throughout, has been dedicated and thoughtful in each case, and the local guides are knowledgeable and pleasant. Hotels are often much nicer than we would stay in on our own, and the food is usually very god! We love not having to plan the details ourselves! Prices are mid-range when compared with other tour groups, even considering the anticipated tips, for which they send envelopes in advance and are easy to plan for. We will be going on future tours with EF soon!

    I have taken two overseas trips so far and have two more scheduled. Everyone I dealt with, those making the arrangements, the tour directors, local guides and bus drivers, were professional and friendly. I would never have had the nerve to travel by myself if it were not for EF.

    A ********** had booked a tour to the Holy Lands shortly before the ***** epidemic shut down international travel for a substantial time. I elected to have my funds held by EF Go Ahead Tours for future use. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I was unable to do any international travel for quite some time but still had Go Ahead hold my funds. When travel abroad finally reappeared in my life, I was happy to see that the company had instituted solo ************************** began looking for somewhere to go! This past May I was able to travel to ******** with a group of likeminded solo travelers. The trip surpassed my expectations. I would recommend Go Ahead to anyone wanting to travel abroad but who is looking for a solo experience. Group members were primarily "of a certain ************* and we all got along very well. My return flight had a slight glitch requiring an unexpected overnight stay in ******************* regarding the disruption was dealt with very well. I'd recommend Go Ahead for anyone not wanting to travel alone but who also doesn't want or need a travel partner.
