EF Tours offers students and adults the opportunity to explore the world up close. It's an incredible learning experience! The tour guide, who stays with us throughout the trip, gives continual information about the historic sights and the cultural differences. EF tours offer students and adults a life-changing experience that remains with them forever! International travel builds confidence, increases cultural awareness, and gives students the opportunity to meet interesting people who, in some cases, become lifelong friends.

Why Travel with Gwen Leonhard?
Gwen, an English teacher at Bonnabel Magnet Academy, has been leading student-teacher groups to Europe since 2000. She provides her group with an in-depth understanding of what they can expect during their travels and gives them background so they'll be able to appreciate their experience. She intercedes when her group members have pre-departure conflicts with EF by directly dealing with them. She adeptly handles on-tour dilemmas and knows how to get the tour guides to "go the extra mile" for her group. With Ms. Leonhard, parents can be assured that the students are well supervised. Because she has traveled to Europe so many times, she knows her way around the various cities and uses this knowledge to take her groups beyond what the tour includes. She's one of the few EF tour leaders who has created her own website to keep her travelers fully informed. Most of the travelers -- students and adults -- are REPEAT travelers; they've traveled with Ms. Leonhard before and have thought it worth a second, third, and -- in a few cases -- fourth trip! This speaks volumes about the value of the experience!
Who Can Join Us?
We welcome all Bonnabel students, teachers, parents, brothers and sisters, and friends. Students and teachers from other schools are also welcome to join us. Students from other schools, including St. Joseph's Academy in Baton Rouge, Jesuit High in New Orleans, and Chapelle High School and Lutheran High in Metairie, and teachers from Bay St. Louis and from local area schools have traveled with us. Parents have sometimes joined us for a "bonding" experience with their children before they head off to college. As long as someone in our group knows the person or if they are recommended by someone, he or she is welcome to join us! Because the EF trips are such a bargain, more and more adults have joined our ranks and have far outnumbered the number of students. Any adult desiring to sign up should be comforted to know that they will have NO chaperone responsibilities. That's my job. Whoever joins us, however, must remember that this is a trip designed for students. Lots of educational information and lots of fun, but nothing fancy. We don't stay in 4-star hotels nor do we eat in expensive restaurants; but we do stay in safe, clean hotels and we always have lots to eat. Because of no-frills, you get a price that can't be beat. Anyone who decides to join us should be aware that we get up early and go to bed late (Sooo much to see!!!) and we often walk long distances quickly. What a great opportunity to get in shape!!! You don't have to be an Olympian, but you should be able to keep up with us.
