Sustainable Development University Tour to Copenhagen
Example study tour
Created for the Cardiff University
As a trusted partner in higher education, we’ve supported numerous institutions in transitioning their trips to more sustainable options such as rail and coach travel.
At StudyLink, we collaborate closely with each university to understand their unique needs, tailoring our approach to student travel at an individual establishment level.
This commitment to sustainable travel has been embraced by many of our customers with great success. For instance, Cardiff University required a flight-free comprehensive group travel package to Copenhagen.
StudyLink arranged their journey by rail and Eurostar, along with arranging visits aligned to sustainable development to ensure the course learning requirements were met.
