School Trips to Barcelona

Barcelona, the cultural centre of northern Spain, is a beloved school trip destination. This bustling, lively, historic city has an excellent range of art museums, fine architecture, historic monuments and amusement parks which will appeal to school students studying a variety of KS4, KS4 and KS5 subjects. Whether you want to immerse your Modern Foreign Language students in the Catalonian culture, or show your Art students the wonders of Parc Güell, booking a school trip to Barcelona will be an enriching experience for all.

One of the top visits for school groups is the magnificent La Sagrada Familia Basilica designed by Antonio Gaudí which has been under construction since 1882. Since June 2019, the Construction Board of the Sagrada Familia has continued building the masterpiece project of Antoni Gaudí.

Barcelona is full of Gaudi’s unique buildings including Casa Batlló and Parc Güell as well as museums and exhibitions explaining his life and work. Gaudi’s distinct style appeals to all, whether you are interested in architecture or not, and most can be appreciated from the outside for free.

Alongside its cultural heritage, Barcelona boasts a stunning Beach with up to 2.8 miles of coastline and has been voted the world’s best beach city by National Geographic. The Mediterranean climate means that the city can be enjoyed all year round. If all this does not whet your appetite, you can also take a tour of the famous FC Nou Camp Stadium and enjoy some traditional tapas for a real flavour of Spain
