New York school tour

New York, the city that never sleeps, is probably one of the most exciting cities in the world and certainly one of our most popular destinations. Arguably the capital of the USA for Finance, Art, Music and Theatre, the Big Apple is an exhilarating ethnic and cultural concoction that will take several visits to consume.

As well as cultural trips taking in all the main sights, we also specialise in Business and Economics trips, including guided walks of the financial district, giving students an insight into the history and present day activities of this financial mecca. We also specialise in Art and Drama trips to New York, including some unusual workshops for your students to take part in. The city’s grid system makes getting around easy and our accommodation is ideally located for visiting many of the famous landmarks on foot.
