Study Tours
Travel with qualified lecturers worldwide and explore new cities, art and architecture

Launched in 1997
We launched our travel arm in 1997 with a study tour to Japan and since then we have run tours throughout Europe, America, China, Egypt, India and Turkey.
Our aim is to make the tours as exciting and friendly as possible. So whilst many of those travelling on the tours are students on our teaching programmes, you are welcome to bring along family and friends.
Safe & Secure
The tours are arranged by us but are facilitated through bonded agents, so you have the security offered by a large company while enjoying the flexibility of an independent organisation.
