College Trip Ideas

A college trip is an excellent way to inspire your college students, bring your subject to life and give your students practical experiences which they can draw upon in their exams.

College trips also offer students an excellent opportunity to further develop their interpersonal skills. They’ll meet lots of new and interesting people and, if you choose to arrange a college trip abroad, they’ll have the opportunity to experience a different culture. 

A college trip is also a good option for developing relationships between students and their teachers, leading to a better learning environment once you’re back in the classroom. This is particularly the case at the beginning of the course, when students may not know many of their peers. Developing these relationships early on can really help them to become more confident and engaged in the classroom. 

At Halsbury, we specialise in tailor-made trips designed to suit the specific requirements and learning objectives of each group. So, whatever your reason for your college trip, and wherever you want to go, our experts will work closely with you to ensure your trip works for you. 

College Trips Abroad

We can arrange college trips abroad to a huge variety of destinations across Europe, North America, Asia and more. 

Perhaps you want your history students to deepen their understanding of life under Nazi occupation, learn more about how the Nazis rose to power or how the German capital was divided during the Cold War? Then Berlin’s the ideal option for you. 

Maybe you want your catering and hospitality students to explore Italian or French cuisine in Italy or France? If you’re willing to travel further afield, why not take them to New York, where they’ll find out how the city’s diverse cultures have come together to create one of the most exciting food scenes in the world. 

Teach art, fashion or design? Inspire your creative students with an unforgettable college trip to Paris or Barcelona

The options for your college trip abroad are endless but don’t worry, our experts will work closely with you to design a trip that supports your learning objectives and enhances your students’ course experience. 

College Trips in the UK

You don’t have to travel far to inspire your college students and enhance their learning. We have plenty of fantastic options right here in the UK, covering many different subjects. 

Do you want your art students to learn more about how artists can be influenced by their surroundings? Then why not head to the street art capital of the UK, Bristol, or industrial Manchester

Perhaps you want your geography students to get out into some of the UK’s most spectacular landscapes, including Cornwall, the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales?

Or maybe you want your history students to deepen their understanding of Tudor life, in which case a college trip to Stratford-Upon-Avon is a great choice. 

Let's start planning your next college trip.
