​

On Saturday, you'll take an inspiring  day trip to historic Windsor Castle, iconic Stonehenge and the ancient city of Bath.

​

On Sunday students will be escorted by a dedicated tour leader on a bus tour that showcases the best that London has to offer. This is an ideal way to see a snapshot of our amazing city and provides context for the MasterClasses, activities & learning of the following week. And you'll enjoy a Walking Tour and River Thames Cruise.

​

Your tour takes you past:

​

  • Tower Bridge & Tower of London

Experience Diverse Cultures

Gain a new perspective from mixed classes 

Although you're visiting one country, your students will benefit from exposure to multiple cultures as they take their Masterclasses and Site Tours and socialise alongside students from a variety of countries and cultures.

 

By setting programme dates and mixing classes, we not only provide the opportunity for smaller groups to take part in a study tour, we offer all size groups the chance to expand their horizons and perspectives through multicultural interaction.

 

By offering your participants this study tour and the opportunity to mix with groups from different countries and cultures, you'll be promoting the development of respect and tolerance. And providing learning experiences that are significantly enhanced by gaining perspectives from a range of diverse students and their teachers.

Experience Social

We know your students are here to study and have invested in an amazing learning experience in an amazing city.

​

And...

​

There's still a time and place for fun!

​

Taking time out to chill or socialise with classmates, especially from other countries, is all part of bonding as a group, developing  cultural  knowledge and growing as an individual.

​
