Thematic and Customized High School Tours
Casterbridge is the perfect option for group tours for high schools interested in a truly educational travel experience where material taught in the classroom comes vividly to life.
We encourage teachers from our high schools to incorporate their curriculum into their touring program, and our knowledgeable staff is eager to assist in making sure that all the goals of your group are met.
Some of the most popular themes on our group tours for high schools include “Classical Italy,” “In the Footsteps of the Impressionists,” “The Golden Age of Spain,” “Shakespeare’s England,” “Service and Adventure in Costa Rica,” “Discovering Peru,” and our various language programs.
Educational Tours and Visits
High schools that travel with Casterbridge expect a highly educational experience that will compliment aspects of the curriculum taught at home.
We find that many of our group tours for high schools focus on a specific thematic program, such as a literary, history, or art option. Others wish to have a general program abroad that will encompass a fuller view of a country’s culture.
Regardless of which option your high school chooses, you can be assured that the content will be focused on enhancing the educational experience of your students.
In addition, our experienced guides are highly aware of how to present information during our group tours for high schools and ensure that the educational aspects of your travel experience are as engaging and interesting as the rest of your tour.
Cultural Experiences
Our group tours for high schools can include a variety of activities designed specifically to immerse them in the local culture. Some of the most popular options we provide are:
- Native dance lessons
- Cooking classes
- Local business visits
- Interaction with local students
- Stadium visits
- Sports matches
- Visits to production sites, such as an olive grove, a chocolate factory, or a car plant (for example, Ferrari or BMW).
These activities give our high schools a unique insight into aspects of a culture that may be missed otherwise, and provide experiences that will greatly enrich your educational content.
Recreational Activities
Our high schools tend to be a bit adventurous, so in addition to our standard recreational activities, such as a stroll along a coastal path or a walk along the parapet of a castle, we regularly get requests for activities such as biking tours, hiking, sports games, snorkeling, kayaking, and other more physical pursuits.
We are more than happy to arrange these activities on our group tours for high schools and believe they are yet another way for your students to live like the locals.
Free time
We have yet to encounter a group from our high schools that does not want time for shopping. We make sure that each of our group tours for high schools includes some time in the day, usually around lunch and in the evenings, when students can explore the local culture for themselves.
We take students on our group tours for high schools to safe areas that are easy to navigate and that provide time for shopping, exploring, and discovering the local cuisine and way of life.
These personal explorations often enrich the cultural experience for our high schools, and are an important part of the tour experience.
