Study Tours are a great way to combine travel with education. There are a wide variety of study tours available, ranging from an exploration into the indigenous culture of a countries, to focusing on a particular issue or professional interest.
Study Tours often combine immersion within a local culture with special tours, seminars, and local contacts. These activities are sometimes affiliated with a local education institution and often can award transferable college credit.
Organizations such as Ace Study Tours in the UK, and the Smithsonian Journeys in the USA are good examples of professionally run study tours
