The International Ecotourism Society (TIES)

This course has been developed and is delivered with these issues in mind and offers you a real world learning experience with experiential learning concepts embedded throughout your course.

Adventure Tourism

Adventure Tourism is off piste! It's around the world, around the country and around the corner in the Peak District. It is a new area of study that combines the classic tourism offer of sun, sea, sand and Sangria with sustainability, style and snow. It's about being forward looking, entrepreneurial and challenging the classic notions of the tourism experience.

You'll study in the beautiful spa town of Buxton in the heart of the Peak District - it's a perfect place to develop your skills in adventure related activities.
