4 Destinations That Add a Touch of Glamour to School Tours

Educational excursions evoke images of long museum hallways and students carefully taking copious notes. On the other hand there are those trips where students spend their days whooshing down slopes on skis or playing round-robin sporting tournaments.

But, believe it or not, there are also some destinations that can add a dash of glamour to an educational experience.

Fabulous Florida

Florida has a reputation for providing visitors plenty of entertainment and fun in the sun. The US state is blessed with wonderful weather and draws thousands of people to its beaches, resorts and wildlife areas year after year. Students on school tours, too, can taste a little of this Miami-style glitz. The Keys offer glorious sun-kissed piers and beaches, while Miami Beach itself is a mecca for the fashionable and tanned. Further north, there is the irrepressible lure of Orlando's theme parks and the educational fun of the Kennedy Space Centre. Students will be enthralled and excited by every moment they spend here to the point that they may not even be aware, at first, of how much they have actually learned.

Fancy Los Angeles

When many people think of Los Angeles, they think of Hollywood. The glamorous edge and siren-call of the LA lifestyle is renowned through film and television. Students who are lucky enough to take school tours to the West Coast of the United States will no doubt be on the edge of their seats as they near Hollywood and the famous movie studios. The great benefit of Hollywood is that outside the glossy sheen of celebrity and aspiring celebrity is the real town of Los Angeles, as well as other cities in California such as San Diego and San Francisco, all with unique histories and vibrant cultures.

Posh New York

New York is many things to the many people who visit, and is even familiar to those who aren't so fortunate! The world over, people have an image of this iconic city even if they have not come close to stepping foot in it. Such is its grand and teeming bustle of life, students on school tours who are fortunate to step within its iconic aura will be awed by the fullness, diversity and complexity of its many faces. But they will revel in the chance to explore places like Times Square and inspect some of the avenues that boast the heights of fashion, art and popular theatre.

Glitzy London

Students embark on school tours to London for many reasons. They visit for the superb museums; they visit for the theatre and art shows from the Barbican to the Tate Modern; and they visit for the architecture that ranges from medieval times to the present day. But they can also take in a bit of glitz and glamour in a city that has long carved out a reputation for lovers of fashion and high culture.
