I went on an EF trip to France with my school in high school. My best friend went on that one and another one to Italy and Greece. Overall their trips were well organized however much of the reason they're so cheap is they rely heavily on walking tours (which are free) although the guide is nice. Also the hotels they chose weren't the greatest in accommodations, but they weren't gross or anything and hey, it's student travel.

I'd suggest going with a friend or two though. That way you're more likely to be not as bored on the trips and you can cut out and do your own thing once in awhile. Also, never ever wear those horrid backpacks anywhere. Ever. They scream tourist and I feel like them along would make you a target. A girl on my HS trip actually did, which is why I say that, although I'm sure you probably wouldn't ever want to anyway (I know I didn't). In short you get what you pay for but if you don't mind it definitely being student travel then I say go for it. They organize stuff for you and you have a guide that speaks the language. And budget for food too! Because very little is included.
