Schools into Europe - Wales
Schools into Europe provides a range of school trips to Wales, whether you’re looking for a Welsh language themed school trip, or a History school trip taking in Roman life at Caerleon or the adventure of a school trip to Oakwood Theme Park, then Schools into Europe will be able to provide the school trip to Wales to suit your needs.
In North Wales you could visit the lovely Isle of Anglesey, with its beautiful bridges taking you across the Menai Straits. Llanfair P.G. is the little village with the big name, from where you can carry on to Holyhead or visit charming Beaumaris, with its castle and ancient gaol. The home of Hedd Wyn, “Yr Ysgwrn”, can be visited in Trawsfynydd, and students of politics may enjoy a visit to the birthplace of David Lloyd George in Llanstumdwy. Take a tram to the top of the Great Orme in lovely Llandudno, or visit the castles of Conwy, Criccieth, Harlech and Caernarfon, site of the Royal Investiture. Technology buffs will love the Power of Wales at Dinorwic Power Station.
The village of Llanberis is the gateway to spectacular Snowdon: take a ride on the Mountain Railway, alternatively try taking the Ffestiniog Railway to the Llechwedd Slate Caverns, where you can travel deep underground. All sorts of outdoor fun with slides and tree-climbing can be had at the “Hwylfan” in Caernarfon or the Greenwood Centre in its beautiful woodland setting, or how about go-karting at Glasfryn Park?
The South and West of Wales can offer just as much excitement. Explore our industrial heritage at Big Pit or the National Waterfront Museum, learn about Roman life in Caerleon, discover the Civil War at Llancaiach Fawr or the fantastic Norman Castle of Caerphilly.
Discover our Welsh heritage at the National Museum of Wales or St. Fagan’s National History Museum or learn about our modern nation with a visit to the National Assembly or the Millenium Stadium. Lovers of the outdoors can enjoy the beaches of the Gower and Pembrokeshire. The spectacular Dan-yr-Ogof caves are a must-see, and thrill-seekers will love a day at Oakwood Park.
Schools Into Europe will ensure that everything is pre–booked beforehand, leaving you more time to enjoy yourself.
