Considering an Educational Trip for your Group?

Warwickshire is the birthplace of one of the most influential writers in English literature – William Shakespeare. A visit to Stratford-upon-Avon, where the Bard was born and lived, offers a unique window into his life and works. The Royal Shakespeare Theatre, which stages performances of Shakespeare’s plays, is an essential stop for literature enthusiasts. Away from Stratford-upon-Avon, if you are looking an award-winning interactive historical experience, look no further than Warwick Castle, an essential day out for any group visiting Warwickshire.

Paris, the ‘City of Light’, is a haven for art and history lovers. The Eiffel Tower and the Notre Dame Cathedral showcase the city’s architectural brilliance, while the Louvre Museum houses thousands of works from around the world, including the famous Mona Lisa.

And a visit to Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration camp, offers a sobering lesson on the atrocities of the Holocaust.
