Stratford

Private bus trip from London to Stratford, via Oxford where the group enjoys a private guided tour of the university with some time for lunch or a visit to the world-famous Ashmolean Museum.  In Stratford, the group is housed in B&Bs in walking distance to the town center and Royal Shakespeare Company’s theatres.  Each student receives a pass to all Shakespeare properties, including Shakespeare’s birthplace and trips to Mary Arden’s farm and Anne Hathaway’s house. Two-three plays at the RSC. One group fish and chips dinner at “The Dirty Duck” pub.

Beach Day

Private bus trip from London (transport included in program tuition) to nearby beach towns like Brighton, Hastings, Dover or Margate, just for the sake of sun and ocean air and getting out of the city for a day.  If Brighton, the group will have a guided tour of the bizarre Royal Pavilion.  If Hastings, the group might stop at Hever Castle or the site of the battle of Hastings.  If Dover, the group might also visit Canterbury.  If Margate, the group will have prepaid admission to the new Turner Art Museum.
