About Us

Galina International Study Tours Ltd is a family-owned company that has been organising educational study tours across a wide range of curriculum areas since 1989.

 

Our Tours

All our tours can be tailored to your specific requirements.  Whether it is for the purposes of completing GCSE / AS/A2 controlled assessment or revision, as a KS3 curriculum enhancement activity or as a cross-curricular school experience, we pride ourselves on being able to provide a prompt, supportive & reliable service.

Our tours are designed by teachers & examiners to ensure that they directly relate to the current National Curriculum & to the relevant GCSE / AS/A2 specifications produced by AQA, OCR, Edexcel, & WJEC.  We also offer tours to Scottish schools relevant to SQA Standard & Higher Grades & the Scottish Curriculum for Excellence.

 

Our Study Packs

Each tour is accompanied by a study pack & teachers' notes included in the price.  They provide maps & information together with suggested tasks & discussion points relevant to your examination specification.  The pack can either be used on tour or as the basis of follow-up work.

 

Our Guides

Galina’s experienced Study Tour Guides & Tour Directors ensure that your Galina Study Tour is as enjoyable & as educationally relevant as possible.  Their knowledge & experience of the locations you are visiting can help you & your students get the most out of your tour

 

Our Administrative Staff

Our Tour Administrators provide each group leader with a direct & personal contact who can offer advice & deal with all aspects of the arrangements in an efficient & friendly way.  If you have a question or a problem, our Tour Administrators are there to help.

We have always aimed to achieve the following:
