Our Tours

 Did you know the United Kingdom is the world’s 10th biggest tourist destination?

To fully understand a country and its culture it is important to learn about the past history and lifestyle. As in any other nation, the people and the culture are what make us so distinct. By attending our programmes, one of our priorities is to offer you the possibility to embrace this experience and have an unforgettable time.

In order to do that, our team has been working for years to gather a range of historic, cultural and entertaining options to complement our School Integration Programmes. We build tailor made programmes to suit your needs.

You can choose to start your day either by visiting the historic Tower of London or with a fantastic view over the city from the modern London Eye. London has countless tourist attractions and some of these landmarks are world famous. We will do our best to accommodate your needs and design a suitable sightseeing trip for you: let us know what your interests are!

From Red Brick University tours to Harry Potter and Madame Tussauds, every weekend KSC will organise daytrips to the most known cities in England for a comprehensive experience of the country.

 We want to ensure you will have the chance to soak up some of our culture by trying our most typical dishes, visiting the Queen at Buckingham Palace and our best museums.
