Go Ahead Tours–
A leader in group travel experiences since 1990, Go Ahead specializes in Europe group tours – with a current offering of over 90 different tours to Europe alone! As part of Education First, Go Ahead provides enlightening cultural experiences all over the world. In addition to their customizable group tours to Europe, they offer tours to Africa, Asia, Australia, the Americas and Antarctica. They negotiate the best rates with leading hotels and airlines and promise that if you find a lower price on the same tour elsewhere, they’ll match it!
All groups are capped at 35 travelers or less, and tours to remote natural landscapes have even smaller groups, allowing access to hard-to-reach locations and more authentic lodging.
For more active travelers, they currently offer Walking Tours to Switzerland, Ireland, Tuscany, Spain and Provence. In addition they offer specialty tours like The Wines of Eastern Europe; London, Paris and the Chelsea Flower Show; several Christmas Markets of Germany or Eastern Europe tour; Oktoberfest: Historic Germany; Beers of Belgium and Germany, and several others.
Their Tour Directors are local insiders with years of experience in sharing knowledge of regional culture and history with travelers. They handle all the logistics and give you tons of background on each place you visit – from knowing where to get the best cup of coffee to giving a dramatic retelling of the history behind an iconic landmark. In addition to your Tour Director, your local guides will be true experts on their specific cities, whether that is a rustic village in the Italian countryside or a bustling cultural capital. With their global EF network, Go Ahead boasts some of the best and most experienced guides in the industry.
