Educational Tour Preparations

To make the most of an educational tour, students should find out as much as possible about the country they will be visiting prior to their trip. This means reading both travel guide books and travel books written by authors who have visited the country. These travel books provide a different perspective on aspects of a country's history and culture. Examples of famous travel books are those written by Bill Bryson about his travels in Australia, the United States and England. These books cover language and slang, ancient and recent history, food and drink, customs and much more.
