Guaranteed or your money back. In the
unlikely event you don’t like a hotel, we’ll change it to your
satisfaction within 30 days – or give you a full refund. Take a look

on each hotel.

Choice of Menu
Tired of Wiener Schnitzel or chicken and fries every night? Often wish
you had a choice? We know how you feel. At the European Institute we cater
not just to individual dietary requirements, but we offer you a choice
of menu. A nation’s cuisine is an important element in its culture
and a travel program should reflect that.

The Best Tour Directors in the Business -Guaranteed.
At the European Institute, we can afford to handpick our tour directors.
Our tour directors are selected from the cream of Europe’s Universities-
Oxford, Cambridge, the Sorbonne, etc. They have all proven themselves
in the field – we do not accept rookies as European Institute tour
directors. Take a look at some of our typical tour
directors and you’ll see why we can make this guarantee: in the
unlikely event of your feeling dissatisfied with your tour director, we
will replace him or her in 24 hours.

Educational Focus
At The European Institute our mission is to provide you and your students with
the ultimate educational experience. We have the best colleagues in the world to
help us in this aim – you, the teachers!
Individual members of our academic board work with us on the general shape of
the tour – then you come in! If there’s a topic you’d like us to include, please let
us know and it’s as good as done.
Every day spent with us, every city visited will be spent having fun, participating,
and learning.

Flexibility
Whether you have a large or small group, we can tailor your program –
even your catalog program – to your individual needs. You’d
rather visit Padua than Ravenna? – no problem. The more obscure the
request the better our tour coordinators like it!

More Included Activities
At the European Institute, we try to pack as much value into our programs
as possible. For example, in Paris we include a trip up the Eiffel Tower
and a boat ride along the Seine in most itineraries. (Your students could
pay as much as 50$ with some other organizations.)

No Need to Play the “Educational Travel
Lottery”
One teacher we surveyed memorably described her experience with a large
quality travel organization as being “like a lottery: one year the
hotels are fine and we have a terrific tour director, the next, the hotels
are in the boonies and we have a rookie who can’t speak the language.”
As a midsize organization, we’re able to offer a consistency of product
the rest evidently find difficult.
