Boston University Zhangjiajie Adventure
Boston University’s Summer Study Abroad Program took a trip to Zhangjiajie with The Learning Adventure. Students ventured into what are now known as the ‘Avatar’ mountains (renamed after the film!) for three days of hiking and a walk across the world’s longest and highest glass bridge. The trip ended in Fenghuang – a perfectly preserved ancient town, placed within a stunning landscape and said to be one of the most picturesque settlements in China.
Now is the time for your students to visit the Tibetan Plateau

Travelling to China with Muslim Students
Organising a school trip is no simple feat. Even before you present the trip to students you need to get the school leadership team onboard. To do this, you need to choose a travel agent, go over the itinerary, and conduct health & safety checks to ensure you meet all school educational and safety requirements. Now throw in religious and dietary concerns. And planning a school trip just became a little bit trickier.
