Views of Edinburgh from from above 🩵

📍Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh

What is Arthur's Seat?

This large, grass covered hill is the remains of an extinct volcano that erupted 350 million years ago. Arthur’s Seat is the highest point of this extinct volcano.

Although the origin of the name is unsure, some claim that there is a connection between Edinburgh and King Arthur. Arthur’s Seat may have been the location of legendary Camelot.

There is an opportunity to climb Arthur's Seat in your free time on our Edinburgh & The Highlands trip. It's an optional trip but we highly recommend it for a fresh start to your Sunday morning on the trip.

The Cotswolds is an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It’s home to some of the most beautiful, quaint English villages such as Bourton-on-the-Water & Burford. We give you time to take in the peacefulness of the countryside, take photos and breathe in the fresh British countryside air.

After enjoying a cream tea, we head over to Oxford for a walking tour, free time and lunch to walk the streets of Oxford. See the river where Lewis Carroll took the real Alice in Wonderland, Hogwart’s dining hall (when available) and the colleges where CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien taught. Picture perfect.

This is your chance to experience 1000 years of history in the grounds of Dover Castle. During the visit, we walk amongst tunnels used during World War II and marvel at the beauty of the White Cliffs of Dover.

Our Story

PUTTING EDUCATION FIRST

SomewhereNew (first trading as Proscenium) was established in 2001 as an alternative to other educational tour organisers. Founded by an educator rather than a travel agent, we have always believed that travel should provide an in depth, individualised and unique cultural experience – whether it be a 3 week study tour, or just a day out! A cursory, mass produced travel experience is just NOT good enough.

At SomewhereNew we believe a slower more measured pace and an itinerary that is relevant to your curriculum will make the most rewarding experience for your students. Therefore extra care and time is taken to provide you and your group a “local’s” experience with all its cultural touches.

Since our early beginnings, we have been involved in the sphere of higher education. University professors, their students and college study abroad programmes know they can trust SomewhereNew to deliver an excellent in depth experience. Among these clients we are known for our professionalism, our flexibility and most importantly, for giving students that something extra that leaves an indelible impression that really does make the experience last a lifetime.
