Custom-Designed Tour in England
Christina S., English Teacher
We helped Christina S., an English teacher from Orlando, Florida, design her very own London and Cambridge itinerary to focus on her curriculum. Christina wanted to specifically create an itinerary that aligns with Florida’s Advanced International Certificate of Education curriculum and philosophies. Using our AP English Literature tour as a baseline, Christina incorporated several unique highlights of her own, including visits to Cambridge University and Norwich Castle.
