Support Services

Student and faculty accommodations
Anglo American offers a wide range of both student and faculty accommodations, in either apartments or hotels. We are able to arrange accommodations, ranging from one night to a full semester.

Orientation sessions
All our London groups are offered an orientation session. This covers living in London, security and safety and housing arrangements. We provide various orientation materials for the session, including maps, leaflets and tourist information

Meet and greets
If you require someone to meet your group at the airport then we can arrange this for you.

Taxis
We can arrange for a taxi to pick you up from the airport and transport you directly to your housing.

Airport transfers
Many of our groups like to arrange a private coach transfer from the airport. We are able to arrange this, so that you are transported directly to your housing in comfort.

Coach rental
Other than your airport transfer you might want to arrange for a coach to transport your group when you are on a day trip, or even just for a ½ day tour of London. We are able to assist in arranging coach rental, both in the UK and Europe

Train tickets
If you are travelling by train, then we can assist with arranging tickets. In many countries we can assist with both second and first class travel, if required, along with rail-passes valid for travel in specific countries.

Transportation passes
In order to utilize public transportation in the city where you are staying, you may require a travel pass. We can obtain these in advance and have them waiting for you at your hotel or apartment upon arrival.

Tours

As a starting point, many groups like to book a ½ day guided tour of the city they are staying in. We can assist in arranging this, with guides and coaches where necessary. We can also supply hop on hop off bus tickets in many cities, as an alternative to a guided tour

Cultural excursions
We are able to arrange all aspects of cultural excursions, including coaching, entrance fees, meals and guides. We have excellent relationships with sites, such as Stonehenge and Dover Castle, and therefore are able to obtain special educational rates.

Entrance fees
You can avoid the queues by purchasing your entrances in advance. We can readily assist in this process, ensuring that at busy times you can skip that long queue and go straight in.
