London - a great place for children in the summer: there is a warm comfortable weather, there are numerous combined programs that combine academic load and unforgettable vacation. London schools are very popular during the vacation period, however, the leisure options for students in the suburbs of London are equally attractive and in demand, because thanks to the favorable location one can get to know the cosmopolitan capital of the United Kingdom, while staying in quieter, picturesque places (but not less interesting!).
An hour's drive from London is Oxford, the oldest student city in which the luxurious architecture of colleges and universities creates a unique look: the eye can be relaxed from the metropolitan diversity, and one can walk around the whole city for one walk. Near the capital there is another popular university city - Cambridge: you can get to London from it in less than an hour, and walking around the city will be struck by unusual Gothic architecture and flowering daffodils, green lawns and parks. Dover is another city in the vicinity of London: a port city where tourists from all over the world come to view the alabaster rocks and the view from the view of the English Channel. Canterbury, an hour's drive from the capital, is the site of the oldest buildings on the UNESCO World Heritage List. And, of course, we can not fail to mention Stonehedge, in whose territory the buildings from the Neolithic times were preserved. Summer camps in the suburbs of London - this is an excellent opportunity to improve language skills and learn a lot of interesting things in excursions and trips around the capital of the Foggy Albion.
