During their stay in US the Millennials explored America's most reputed universities like Harvard, MIT and Georgetown University, where the delegates had a guided tour of all the campuses provided by senior students themselves and had a chance to interact with them about the campus life, applications etc. The delegates also visited Mary Baker Eddy Museum to explore the history of the world and how nations were formed on the world's oldest map - the Mappariumat Boston Massachusetts.

The most proud moment for the Millennials was when they had a guided exploration of the United Nation Headquarters. Followed by the interactive session about UN mission to US with the diplomats.

The Millennials took the Ferry to Liberty Island and explore the Statue of Liberty and some of the most iconic sites in Manhattan like Grand Central, Wall Street, and 9/11 Memorial.

They visited the US Capitol and various National Memorials like Abraham Lincoln Memorial, Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, World War II Memorial, Korean and Vietnam War Veterans Memorial in Washington DC where they all got a taste of the American Government and its history. They also set out an adventure in the International Spy Museum at Downtown Washington DC and later the day took that perfect set of photographs in front of the White House.
