Bespoke School Trips to

Geneva

CERN is the largest particle physics laboratory in the world, and a CERN school trip puts your students at the place where the Higgs boson was confirmed.

CERN switched off the Large Hadron Collider on 29 June 2026 for Long Shutdown 3, the biggest upgrade since the machine was built. It changes nothing for your group. School visits do not go down into the tunnel, so the surface experience runs as normal. Shutdown periods can even open up access that is not possible when beams are circulating. Your students still get the Science Gateway, its exhibitions and lab workshops, and a guided tour led by a CERN scientist.

Geneva gives you plenty around it. The History of Science Museum, the United Nations and a boat trip on the lake are all reachable on the city's free public transport for visitors. We have taken over 10,000 students to CERN and we are the UK's leading CERN school trips provider, so we know how the days fit together.

Please note, the CERN visit itself is booked directly by your school, and it is a very popular one, so it pays to enquire early. We handle everything around it.
