Future Uni Student Wanting To Study Abroad
I finish my A levels next year and afterwards I am really wanting to progress onto uni abroad but have no idea how to go about it. Was wondering does anybody know any experiences or and UK unis that have a campus abroad? Also wishing to study a degree in Tourism Management 
On the other hand, does anybody know whether the fees are the same, we can get a loan and pay it back in segments when we are employed and earning a certain amount?
thank you

Nottingham has campuses abroad (Malaysia and China, from memory). However, they have largely been set up to cater to the lucrative market for international students who want the name of a British degree, without necessarily having to travel to get it. They are not normally institutions that UK students study at for the full three years, although they may spend a year there.
Don't forget that most universities have study abroad programmes which allow you to study at an entirely different university. So, for instance, you could study at Tsinghua University rather than Nottingham's Chinese campus. Indeed, this is by far the more common way to study abroad.

Hi Glitterz,
There are many foreign universities that teach subjects in English, so you wont necessarily need to attend a UK campus overseas (assuming that was your concern?). Fees vary from country to country, take a look on our website to give you an idea of different costs.
Sadly, there are very few countries that offer student loans to international students. UCAS do not offer loans for UK students to study abroad either (tragic!). However, Nuffic (the equivalent to UCAS, in the Netherlands) is a helpful resource to find both courses and scholarships/grants. Furthermore, the Netherlands is a popular destination for international students to ascertain a high quality degree for a low cost (approx. £1,500 per year).
Both Stenden and NHTV Breda specialise and offer degrees in Tourism Management, so will hopefully be a good start for your search. Both of these universities will be attending our London fair on March 16th at Emirates Stadium. So will be a great opportunity for you to speak to them in person about all processes involved with studying abroad, should you see them as a good fit.
Best of luck in your search,

Nottingham in China has nearly 300 full time international students who spend their whole programme there. It's also common for students to go on exchange for a semester/year from Nottingham UK and vice versa.

300 international students accounts for less than 10% of the total (4832 according to wikipedia) and many of the international students will (unless there's info you're not giving here) be non-UK students, perhaps from Singapore or Malaysia.
Hence, it's not an institution that a UK student would normally spend three years at.
Yes, few of the students are full time undergraduate students from the UK due to loan implications. However, the international students come from 50+ different countries and are not just from SE Asia as your post may suggest. The proportion from SE Asia only accounts for approximately 30%.
A large number of UK students opt to spend a year in China as part of a UK based programme and this may well be a good option for someone wishing to obtain a study abroad experience.
