Your spot and your chaperones’ spots—covered by us
When 10 paying travelers sign up for your educational tour, we cover your spot so you don’t have to pay. And for every 10 additional travelers you enroll after that, you earn a free chaperone spot. So if you enroll 50 paying travelers, that means you and four chaperones go for free.

PRICING
Flexible payment options for families
When families sign their students up for your EF Explore America tour, they’re not just paying for plane tickets, hotels, and museum visits. They’re investing in an unforgettable and immersive learning journey, a global EF support system that has their back, and a variety of tools and resources to help manage costs.
We proudly invest $2.5+ million in annual student travel scholarships
We believe travel-based learning is essential to education, and that more students should have the opportunity to experience it. That’s why we invest more than $2.5 million in student travel scholarships each year. One important way we bring this commitment to life is through our merit-based Explorer Scholarship, which all student travelers are encouraged to apply for.
Travel coverage
Travelers can stay protected with individual coverage
Families can choose to enroll travelers in one of our Travel Protection Plans, all of which are designed specifically with EF travelers in mind. These affordable plans provide pre-departure and on-tour benefits, including medical expense coverage that may apply on tour and tour cancellation for reasons specified in the plan.

Tip from the experts
Most educators who lead EF educational tours require their entire group to enroll in a Travel Protection Plan. The price of each traveler’s plan will automatically be added to their pricing details when they sign up for your tour.
