USA West Coast Group Tour with Equity School Trip
Equity - The School Travel People
The television and film industry that was born in the orange groves of Southern California has spread its influence all over the world. To maximise the West Coast's potential as a destination for educational trips, Equity has selected an extensive range of excursions for Film and Media students. This can include visits to Universal Studios, Warner Brothers Studios, Grauman's Chinese Theatre, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and the Dolby Theatre (formerly Kodak). Behind-the-scenes tours of sound stages, prop departments and back-lot sets will offer a detailed insight into the world of filmmaking. Speak to our specialists today about organising your Film and Media trip to West Coast USA. Alternatively, if you are just looking for a cultural trip to explore California and the surrounding regions, we have plenty of options taking in cities, national parks, beaches, mountains, and everything in between. Take your students on the road and enjoy a classic American road trip around this stunning part of the world.
