SUMMER 2026

This is a once in a lifetime trip, with unprecedented access to charities, World Heritage palaces and the Taj Mahal, allowing students to learn about important global issues, and world religions.

Due to the high educational value of this trip, all students will earn the widely recognised ASDAN Universities Award, which will look excellent on future UCAS University applications. 

The trip starts by exploring Delhi, the capital of India.  Delhi has a rich history that goes back many centuries and empires. We can enjoy an inspirational visit to a local charity to learn about poverty-reduction, and community education. We will visit The Red Fort – one of the most magnificent palaces of the world, and World Heritage Site. We also enjoy a tour of the sacred Masjid-i Jahān-Numā, one of the largest mosques in India, to learn about Islamic beliefs and worship, as well as to Gandhi’s tomb, which is an iconic site in a beautiful, quiet location.

We then travel to Agra, to visit the stunning Taj Mahal, one of The Seven Wonders of the World. The Taj Mahal is the most famous architectural icon of India, built by the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, as a mausoleum for his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal. Students will have an interactive guided tour, learning about the history of Islam in India, Islamic teachings and practice.  In Agra, we also visit the Agra Fort, one of the finest Mughal forts in India. It was the main residence of the emperors of the Mughal Dynasty. The Agra Fort is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and is a perfect place to relax towards the end of our trip.
