What travelers are saying

"We purchased two backpacks from Rick Steves Europe. One of them arrived damaged and unusable. Their website says that you must contact them if you receive damaged merchandise. I have attempted to email them through their website and I have left 3 voicemails (nobody answers the phone, ever!) and nobody has contacted me back. At this point, it seems like I've been ripped off. Buyer beware. Extremely disappointed."

What travelers are saying

"I’ve been traveling with EF Ultimate Break since 2018 and could not recommend it enough! Thanks to EF, I have been able to see 26 different countries over 9 different trips and will get to cross 2 more off on trip number 10 this summer! Not only has EF given me the ability to see the world and experience new things and places, it has also introduced me to some of the best friends in the world! Traveling solo doesn’t have to mean traveling alone and EF makes that happen. I would highly recommend using EF to book your next travels!"
