Join us on a full-day guided tour to Skipton and the White Scar Caves, a perfect mix of history and adventure. Specially designed for teenage learners, this excursion begins deep underground at White Scar Caves, the UK’s longest show cave, where students will see underground waterfalls, stalactites, and fascinating rock formations. After exploring the caves, the group will travel to Skipton, a charming market town known as the “Gateway to the Dales.” Here, students will enjoy free time to wander the market streets before visiting the impressive Skipton Castle, one of the best-preserved medieval castles in England. With a balance of natural wonder, local culture, and historic discovery, students will experience the very best of Yorkshire — all under the guidance of experienced leaders and English-speaking guides.
