Why Choose The Netherlands For An Educational Tour?

A hub of culture, creativity, and ideas

Did you know that the Netherlands is the second-largest exporter of agricultural products in the world? For one of Europe’s smallest countries, that’s highly impressive.

Huge investments in technological research and sustainable farming have pushed the country forward. It is just one example of the Netherlands punching above its weight when it comes to innovation.

It has, of course, always been a creative country. In Amsterdam, for example, students can stand before iconic works by Rembrandt and Van Gogh, before seeing how smart urban planning has created one of the world’s most liveable cities.

Perfect for cross-curricular learning

Our school trips to the Netherlands are ideal for a cross-curricular focus.

Business students can explore Amsterdam’s role in global finance and technological innovation. Geographers can examine flood management and water engineering systems that have proved so successful that they’re being exported to coastal cities worldwide. Art students will find endless inspiration in a country that has given the world many famed artists. And for history students, everything from the Dutch Resistance to the impact of global trade is brought to life in real-world settings.

Safe, easy to explore, and full of charm

The Netherlands is compact, well-connected, and famously bike-friendly. In other words, it’s perfect for school groups.

It’s also welcoming, diverse, and packed with character. Whether your students are exploring the canals, trying stroopwafels, or soaking up local life in a market square, a trip here encourages curiosity, boosts confidence, and develops a broader perspective of the world.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    This depends on where you go and how long for. Plus, there’s the cost of different activities. We’ll keep it budget-friendly by organising a mix of activities tailored to your objectives. This will include both free (e.g. street art) and paid (e.g. the Anne-Frank Museum) attractions.

    You can visit the Netherlands with your school group at any time of year. Winter is quieter, but can be quite cold (similar to the UK), whereas summer is warmer, but can be busy with tourists. The best compromise is often the shoulder seasons, especially for larger groups.

    Students only need a valid passport, which must expire more than 3 months after your return date. There are no visa requirements for British citizens travelling to the Netherlands, provided none of your students have visited the Schengen Area for more than 90 days in a 180 day period.

    One of the best parts about the Netherlands, and the reason it’s so popular with schools, is that it’s easily accessible. There are ferries directly to Amsterdam and other ports along the coast, or you can travel via the Dover-Calais ferry. Going by coach not only saves on costs, but it’s better for the environment and it means you’ll have transport for the entire time you’re away.

    Plus, the Netherlands is compact. So it’s easy to base your group in Amsterdam but use the coach for day-trips to Zaanse Schans, Valkenburg, and the Hague.

    Berlin doesn’t shy away from its history. It confronts it head-on.

    That’s what makes a school trip here so powerful. In the morning, your students are standing where the Berlin Wall once split the city in two. By the afternoon, they’re deep in a Cold War bunker or quietly reflecting on the horrors of the past at the Holocaust Memorial.

    While the past is important, modern-day Berlin is also a creative, energetic place. Street art plasters the walls, subcultures thrive, green spaces bloom, bold startups innovate, and new fashion trends rise and fall.

    It’s a city that gets students thinking. About the past. About politics. About how cities (and nations) rebuild and move forward. It’s an obvious choice for history and politics groups, who love it here, but it works just as well for German language trips, art students, and general cultural tours, too.

    If you’re considering a school trip to Berlin, we’ll help you make it meaningful, memorable and completely hassle-free. Get in touch with our team today to get started.

    Why Choose Berlin For An Educational Tour?

    History comes to life

    Berlin is a no-brainer if you teach history. The city has been at the centre of the most course-changing events of the last 100 years.

    Your students will trace the rise of the Nazis and the horror of the Holocaust through visits to sites like the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, the Sachsenhausen concentration camp, and the Topography of Terror.

    Or, focus on the Cold War. You can walk along the remnants of the Berlin Wall, visit Checkpoint Charlie, and stand in the very places where East met West.

    For GCSE students, seeing these places in real life will give them a deeper understanding to draw on in their exams.

    Rebuilding democracy

    Berlin’s recovery from dictatorship, war, and division offers a powerful case study for students of politics and sociology.

    Take them to the German Bundestag, learn about life on the Eastern side of the wall at the DDR Museum, or dive into debates around freedom, surveillance, and civil rights at the Stasi Museum.

    It can be heavy stuff, but that’s the point. Afterwards, you could always grab some currywurst and head to the local parks to relax.

    Modern capital city

    Berlin feels young. That might sound odd given the city’s unique and storied history, but it’s true.

    There are more students here than anywhere else in Germany, spread across four main universities. That youthful energy gives rise to creativity – you’ll find abandoned buildings turned into galleries and all manner of spaces filled with startups, artists, and activists.

    It’s also a hub for tech and innovation, making it a key location for the European markets. For study groups, there is an opportunity to visit businesses in the area and gain an insight into their success.

    Example Itinerary

    There’s so much to see and do in Berlin, so here’s a sample itinerary we’ve put together to give you a few ideas. Please note that this is only an example of a tour that we could organise, everything can be adapted to fit your needs.

      Architecture, culture, tradition and beautiful landscapes.

      Germany is a fascinating country, especially for school groups.

      Sitting at the centre of Europe (and we don’t just mean geographically), it’s brilliant for a diverse range of subjects and interests. Trace the footsteps of history, get hands-on with science, or help your student’s perfect their pronunciation.

      Regardless of subject-focus, your group will enjoy some truly unforgettable experiences. Stand at the Brandenburg Gate, visit the legendary Bauhaus Museum, explore the wonders of Neuschwanstein Castle, take in the art of the East Side Gallery, or reflect at the poignant memorials of World War II.

      We’re here to make your educational trip to Germany happen. We’ll make sure every moment is packed with purpose and fun.

      There’s something for everyone. Just drop us a message, and we’ll help you plan, book and deliver a trip that students will remember for years to come.

      Why Choose Germany For An Educational Tour?

      It has a storied history

      Germany has been at the political and cultural heart of Europe for centuries.

      From the Romans crossing the Rhine to the rise and fall of Prussia, from the World Wars to the Cold War, there’s so much for students to see, do, and learn about.

      That said, on most of our history school tours to Germany, groups generally focus on the rise of the Nazis, the Holocaust and the Second World War. Your students will learn more about the barbarity of war and fascist ideologies in a range of engaging and thoughtful experiences.

      It’s brilliant for STEM

      If you want to ignite a passion for STEM subjects in your students, you need to show them real-world examples. And for that, Germany is the ideal destination.

      In Frankfurt, the financial capital of Europe, students can peer behind the scenes of the German Stock Exchange and other major institutions. In Munich, they’ll look at the engineering might of the world’s most famous car manufacturers (like BMW). While at Mathematikum, they’ll learn more about maths through unique hands-on exhibits.

      It offers easy language immersion

      There’s nothing quite like an immersive, real-word scenario for practicing a language. Giving your German students the chance to test everything they’ve learnt in the classroom is so valuable. From Year 7’s learning how to respond to “Wie Geht’s?” to GCSE pupils preparing for exams, it can make a huge difference at any stage of learning.

      Plus, Germans are polite, friendly and, generally, speak excellent English. If your students make a mistake, forgiving locals may even help explain where they went wrong.

        Germany is a great destination all-year round. The cities, in particular, are fine to visit in any season. Berlin is always busy, but peaks in the summer, so bear that in mind if you want to reduce the chance of huge crowds. In Winter, you could time your visit to coincide with the country’s famous Christmas Markets, but make sure to wrap up. Meanwhile, in Summer, the Black Forest is truly stunning and offers the chance to get outside.

        Students only need a valid passport, which must expire more than 3 months after your return date. There are no visa requirements for British citizens travelling to Germany, provided none of your students have visited the Schengen Area for more than 90 days in a 180 day period.

        It’s possible to reach parts of Northern Germany by coach, although expect longer journey times. It’s around 10-13 hours from London to Cologne, for example. For other parts of Germany, especially for cities like Berlin and Munich, flying is the best option due to the distance.

        A truly moving place to visit.

        From the remains of the Somme battlefields to those of Verdun and beyond, the World War One Battlefields in France tell of the terrible cost of War.

        No trip to Belgium is more memorable or poignant than a visit to the World War 1 Battlefields in Ypres, where students experience the living conditions in the trenches and the destructive power of war. As one of the most visited parts of the Western Front, where 250,000 soldiers died during the Great War in the defence of Ypres, battlefield sites include Hill 62 Sanctuary Wood Trench Museum and Bayernwald Croonaert Wood Trenches.

        They shall grow not old.

        A trip to Flanders Fields, where a million soldiers were wounded, missing or killed in action, reinforces the destruction and impact of war. There are hundreds of monuments and cemeteries, which have great historical significance for peoples of many nations. Visits include the Menin Gate Memorial to the Missing that contains the names of over 50,000 officers and men.

        Discover the terrible cost of war.

        From the remains of the Somme and beyond, the battlefields of the First World War offer a thought-provoking reminder of our past. Naturally, they also make for an enriching experience for students.

        After all, there is no greater history lesson than standing where the fallen once stood. Your group will trace their footsteps and learn about life on the Western Front.

        They’ll explore the devastating nature of the Great War. They’ll discover how each side dug into the muddy fields of France and Belgium, losing hundreds of thousands of men on each advance, often for little gain. They’ll find the stories of WWI in museums, surviving trenches, memorials and cemeteries across the region.

        It’s our job to plan and create a school trip that packs all of this in for your group. Our tour advisers are experts on the WW1 Battlefields, including the best activities and accommodation options for school groups, so we can handle everything for you.

        Why Choose The WW1 Battlefields For An Educational Tour?

        Real-life lessons

        There’s something quite profound about standing on the very ground where some of history’s biggest events unfolded.

        For your students, it helps them grasp the scale of the conflict in a way no textbook can. Seeing these sites in person provides context to carry forward into lessons and exams, in a way that simply reading about them cannot.

        Plus, you can turn the battlefields into a cross-curricular trip for your school’s History and English departments. There are plenty of opportunities to dip into the poetry of Wilfred Owen, Siegfried Sassoon, John McCrae, and many of the other great writers.

        Memorable experiences

        Across Northern France and into Belgium, there are a huge number of memorable experiences for your group. Some of the most well-known include the Thiepval Memorial to the Missing, Lochnagar Crater, Tyne Cot Cemetery and the In Flanders Fields Museum. You can even take part in the Menin Gate Last Post Ceremony.

        For younger pupils, these activities introduce them to the foundational lessons of WW1. For older students, it adds to their understanding of events they may have previously read books, watched films, or even played games about.

        And when the learning is done, there’s always time to explore the local towns and villages, maybe even sneaking in a delicious crêpe or two.

          A school trip to the USA is an unforgettable adventure.

          Most students have never left Europe. And while they’ll be familiar with American culture from TV, film and music, the reality is more than they could ever imagine.

          This is a country of big dreams and bold ideas. Moments that have shaken history and shaped the modern world. Whether they’re walking up the steps of the Lincoln Memorial or looking out from the top of the Empire State Building, this is an experience that will stay with them for years.

          But, for teachers, the thought of booking and organising such a big trip can be overwhelming. That’s why we’re here.

          Our tour advisers, who have real, genuine experience of visiting the US, will guide you through every stage – from planning a suitable itinerary to supporting you while you’re away.

          Why Choose The USA For An Educational Tour?

          See history and politics up close

          The USA’s story is one of revolution, change, and ambition.

          For students studying history or politics, there’s no better place to understand how the ideas that shaped a nation continue to evolve today. We can organise visits that help support this learning experience, from the stories of immigrants at Ellis Island to the fight for Civil Rights.

          Witness American ambition and innovation

          Take a look at cutting-edge science at New York’s American Museum of Natural History. Witness the world’s financial centrepiece, Wall Street, in action. Visit world-leading universities and tech hubs where the next generation of ideas is already taking shape.

          For your students, this is a chance to see how curiosity, research, and ambition have changed the world – and continue to do so.

          Enjoy the culture

          Music, art, film, and food. The USA’s cultural influence is everywhere. Students can soak up the buzz of Times Square, see world-famous art at The Met, or walk through the monuments and museums of Washington, D.C. They’ll hear new stories, try new flavours, and see the world through a wider lens.

          And yes, they’ll probably grab a New York hot dog along the way.

            Frequently Asked Questions

            Our school trips to the USA are a bit more expensive than other destinations due to the distance involved. Prices depend on where you go and how long for. If you have a certain budget in mind, we can try and plan a trip to match.

            You can visit the USA at any time of year, but there are some considerations in regards to weather and tourist numbers – depending on where you visit. We generally recommend the shoulder seasons for school groups.

            To visit the US, students will need an Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA) or an appropriate visa. Students may also need to provide information about their trip (purpose, location and length), along with a letter of consent from their parents. We’ll advise on all requirements and documentation required.

            Our groups fly to the USA, usually from one of the UK’s major airports (London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh, etc). We will organise all travel while you’re away, which may include using public transport, like the New York City Subway.

            While most of our trips have a clear educational focus, we admit that a school trip to Disneyland® is more about having fun.

            There are lessons to be had, though. STEM pupils can discover the physics, technology and engineering that drive rollercoasters. Business students can learn more about the marketing of a global brand, park management, and customer service. And performing arts classes can enjoy a Disney-themed workshop.

            But, there’s no escaping it, the big draw of a Disneyland® trip is enjoying everything one of the world’s most famous amusement parks has to offer. To make it into a more balanced visit, many of our schools include it as an add-on at the end of an educational French tour, including Paris or Normandy.

            To book your next trip to Disneyland®, get in touch today.

            Why Choose Disneyland® For A School Trip?

            A Reward For Your Students

            After a few days of a packed itinerary, sometimes students just need to unwind. Disneyland® Paris is the perfect add-on at the end of a busy trip. It’s something to keep spirits and motivation high during the more academic parts of a tour. It could also act as an end-of-term reward throughout the school year.

            You only need 1-2 days to get the full experience. During that time, you’ll have the chance to visit both Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios, where there’s something for everyone in your group.

            Easy, Safe and Super Smooth

            Organising a school trip isn’t always easy, but Disney makes this part simple. The park is compact, well-signposted and designed with safety in mind. The staff are used to school groups and things run like clockwork, which gives you, the teachers, a chance to relax too.

            With so much to do and very little to worry about, it’s a stress-free way to end your trip on a high.

            Example Itinerary

            Here’s a sample itinerary for a 3-day trip to Disneyland Paris. Please note that this is only an example of a tour that we could organise; everything can be adapted to fit your needs.

              Europe’s most enchanting city.

              Paris is the most popular European destination for our schools.

              Not only is it quick and easy to access, either by coach or air, but you can pack a huge amount into just a few days. Climb the steps of Montmartre. Witness the works of Monet, Picasso, and da Vinci. Practice French in a boulangerie. Study the world-famous fashion houses. Embrace the history of Versailles, or just blow off some steam at Disneyland.

              Such is the variety of attractions and experiences that the French capital always feels fresh and exciting. And that’s great for schools – with many of the teachers we work with organising a school trip to Paris every year.

              Whatever your focus, there are plenty of opportunities to create memories and support learning. And we’re here to help you bring it all together. When you’re ready, speak to one of our advisers.

              Why Choose Paris For An Educational Tour?

              World-Changing History

              Paris is a brilliant destination for groups studying the history of Europe. The city sat at the centre of the French Revolution and ensuing Napoleonic Wars, before suffering the terror of Nazi occupation until its liberation in August 1944.

              As they explore the city, students will learn about these events and how they changed the world. Stretching further back in time, they’ll find remnants of medieval Paris along the cobbled lanes of the Latin Quarter and in the beautifully restored Notre-Dame Cathedral.

              World-Class Art

              Paris has more art than you could see in a lifetime, but your students will love trying.

              The works of the Louvre are known across the world – from the subtle smile of the Mona Lisa to masterpiece sculptures like the Venus de Milo. But we find school groups enjoy visits to the Musée de l’Orangerie and Musée d’Orsay just as much. After all, seeing Monet’s water lilies or Van Gogh’s distinct style in person is a rite of passage for budding artists.

              Real-World French Lessons

              You can spend hours in the classroom covering vocabulary, sentence structures, and grammar rules. Why not put it all into practice?

              For students, seeing that they can turn everything they’ve learnt into a real-life conversation is a rush. It sounds so simple, but even ordering a pain au chocolat in a local bakery, chatting with market stallholders, or simply navigating the metro immediately boosts confidence and creates a love of French.

              Example Itinerary

              There’s so much to see and do in Paris, so here’s a sample itinerary we’ve put together to give you a few ideas. Please note that this is only an example of a tour that we could organise, everything can be adapted to fit your needs.

                Frequently Asked Questions

                The cost of a school trip to Paris will depend on the number of children, your accommodation, length of stay, and the planned activities. Please give us a call and we’ll provide a full quote for your group.

                Paris is a lovely city to visit at all times of the year. It is busier and more expensive in the summer months, so you may want to bear that in mind if you wish to avoid the crowds and keep costs down.

                The vast majority of our school groups choose to visit Paris by coach. The ferry across the English Channel is an easy route that will get you to Paris in a relatively short amount of time. Plus, that means you have a coach on hand for day trips – Versailles, for example, is over an hour from the city centre. If you wish, it is possible to fly but it will be more expensive.
