Payments made easy

We believe travel is for everyone, which is why we strive to keep our tours affordable and offer families flexible options. When you enroll your traveler on their teacher’s EF tour, we’ll provide three payment plans for you to choose from. We recommend our Automatic Payment Plan, which breaks your price down into smaller installments, connects right to your bank account, and allows you to schedule payments in the way that makes the most sense for you.

What I like about EF is that they have payment plans. You can decide if you’re going to pay once a month, bi-weekly, or just through lump sums and pay as you go. It’s worth it—it is an investment in the future.

Risk-free enrollment

When you sign your traveler up for their teacher's EF tour, you can cancel their trip for any reason up to seven days after enrollment for a full refund.

  • To be eligible, the traveler must:

  • Enroll on the tour at least 110 days prior to the scheduled departure date

  • Either pay in full or sign up for the Automatic Payment Plan at enrollment

  • Remain either paid in full or enrolled in the Automatic Payment Plan at the time of cancellation


If a teacher in your traveler's school is leading an EF tour, they have a unique page with all the details about their specific trip. If you have their tour number (which unlocks this page!), you can enter it here. Find itinerary details, pricing, requested travel dates, and the enrollment form.

After you’ve signed your traveler up for their teacher’s EF tour, you’ll gain access to your traveler account, which will include an entire section dedicated to payments. You’ll see your total charges and remaining balance, access your history, and make payments any time you’d like.

Great question! We have an entire page for that.
