Our educational tours of Ireland provide valuable learning opportunities away from the classroom while also including plenty of options for having fun in a more informal environment.

Something that might not be so obvious is that our educational tours often lead to a better bond between teachers and students. It can work as an extra incentive for students to work particularly hard for a certain teacher as they are incentivised by the teacher taking them away and grateful of the opportunity giving to them.
In terms of personal development, a tour abroad can do wonders for an individual high school student's confidence. Often students return home with a newfound confidence and feeling independent.We can even organise a teenage disco in a safe environment if you feel it would benefit the group.

Students Groups have been trusting us with organising their educational tours of Ireland for years. We have received many messages when groups have returned home about how the group have formed such a strong bond as a result of the tour. This is a key secondary aspect of our educational tour after the learning, and we put a lot of effort into giving groups the option to have as little or as many leisure activities as they so wish. We do encourage having a nice amount of leisure activities as we know the power this can have for group bonding and giving students the opportunity to get to know individual group members they might not have known so well before the tour.
