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.

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.
