School Trips to the UK

International Schools visiting London & the UK

On a school trip to the UK, international schools are spoilt for choice. We have laid out this website into subject and location based trips, though we do find the London page is one of the most popular for international schools travelling to the UK. If you decide to take a tour of London, we work with a number of tour operators who can tailor make memorable tours of the capital for your school. Visit the King's residence at Buckingham Palace, perhaps historic venues such as Blenheim or Hampton Court and get a unique insight into this world city. Please use the short form to allow us to find the best trip for your school.

There are a number of different associations and governing bodies involved in the provision of British style, and even DfE approved, education systems around the world. One thing many have in common is their desire to take school trips to the UK to learn more about British culture and do some quality sightseeing.

Short on time? We can help!

Let us find a suitable UK trip for your school.
