School Trips to Belgium

School group visits to Belgium and the Low Countries offer an educational experience focusing on subjects like history, culture, and language. Students have the opportunity to experience exciting cities like Brussels, Bruges, and Antwerp, where they can visit historic landmarks from the Grand Place to the Magritte museum. The trips below include guided tours that highlight the region's medieval architecture, the European Union institutions, and the significant role the Low Countries have played in European history.

Examples of interactive activities you can include on your Belgian school trip range from a visit to a chocolate factory, to the mechanisms of the European Union at the parliament in Brussels. In the Netherlands you may wish to study art history at one of the many galleries. There are very moving and educational visits to some of the locations which were fought over during the First World War. And of course the fantastic Christmas markets, which delight and capture the imagination of so many people every year.

Easily accessible from the UK, with a short hop across the channel via the Eurostar, Eurotunnel or the ferry, a visit from southern England does not involve a long tiring journey; a key consideration for any party leader!

There are lots of areas of the curriculum you can study too, with both Belgium and The Netherlands having English as a second language, and French and German being widely spoken too, this area is perfect for combining a language trip with a second subject area, like history, politics or business studies.
