About school trips to France
France is a diverse country. From sleepy villages to bustling market towns and cheery sunflower fields to coastal fishing ports, France is the perfect destination for cultural visits.
Visit France to take in big cities boasting baroque, renaissance and medieval influences along with tree-lined boulevards, narrow cobbled streets and cafeteria squares.
Why should you visit France?
From the highest alpine peaks, through snowy pine slopes and past mountain chalets, from coast to coast down steep verdant valleys and undulating foothills, arrive at La Plage to plunge into the lapping waters of the French Riviera.
Wherever you venture, take deep breaths and savour the wild thyme and lavender fields of Provence, the waft of ripe camembert and freshly baked croissants (and of course, the garlic!)
The distinctiveness of the country is reflected in our France school trips. You can explore the natural beauty of alpine Annecy, the picturesque port of Sète or the gastronomy capital, Bordeaux depending on your learning goals.
