Bespoke School Trips to

Cornwall

A Cornwall school trip gives your secondary group big landscapes, world-class visits, and a proper change of scene without leaving the UK.

Cornwall packs a lot into a few days. The Eden Project alone is worth the journey, with its huge biomes and education sessions that work for biology, geography, sustainability and design technology. Beyond Eden, your group can climb to St Michael's Mount, take in modern art at the Tate St Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum, meet rescued seals at the Cornish Seal Sanctuary, and finish with a day at Newquay Zoo on the way home.

Because the trip is bespoke, it works as enrichment, a cross-curricular tour, or with a single subject focus. We shape it around your year group, the dates that suit your school calendar, and what your budget will stretch to.

Trusted by teachers across the UK since 1994. Your tour is ABTA bonded. Your students travel through TourTrust audited suppliers. Risk assessments are made simple, with all the supplier information, audits and safety detail handed to you in one pack. SLT questions answered before they reach your inbox.
