Oxford is ideally situated to allow easy access to the wealth of attractions in England. Every weekend and on several weekdays, we'll travel to fantastic, historic sites. A schedule of afternoon and evening activities and outings will be organized around your interests. You will be fascinated by:
the Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology - Britain's oldest public museum
the Pitt-Rivers Museum - with its own world-renowned anthropological heritage
Modern Art Oxford - Oxford's MOMA, for more current artifacts
If you believe the play鈥檚 the thing, catch one at the Globe Theatre, an exquisite replica of William Shakespeare's famous London theatre. Also be sure to visit Stratford Upon Avon, Shakespeare鈥檚 birthplace, where you can attend a performance by the Royal Shakespeare Company.
If government is of interest to you, imagine visiting the Houses of Parliament, where you will learn about the workings of British government from a Member of Parliament. You may also visit the Royal Courts of Justice, the Old Bailey (criminal courts), Buckingham Palace, and so much more!

Study Abroad Program Comparison
NEW! See the Oxford video Yes, my sister went there a couple of years ago. She claims it was one of the best expiriences in her life. I don't remember much else (I stopped listening), but she wouldn't stop talking about it for weeks. So I can assume that yeah, it's pretty much worth it!
Hope this helps! :p
