ABOUT EF
For over 55 years, we’ve dedicated ourselves to one global mission: Opening the World Through Education. Our programs help students expand their knowledge of the world around them, discover more about themselves, grow more confident and independent, and understand new people, places, and cultures.
At one time or another, each of these cities was among the most important in the world.
Venice was a major naval power, and it still has a firm grip on the world’s romantic imagination. Florence was the birthplace of the Renaissance, and that artistic tradition still thrives. In Rome, majestic sights like the Colosseum recall its long imperial reign.Due to national and/or religious holidays, some sites may be closed and your itinerary may be modified on the following dates in 2024: March 19, March 29-April 1, and June 29. These dates fluctuate each year—please contact us for more information.
