Wonderful Reasons to Take a School Trip to France

France is a wonderful country for kids and adults alike. Its capital, Paris, is not referred to as the City of Lights for no reason. It has its beauty lit up within its core and etched in its pore—from its cuisine to its history, and architecture. What are some of the places to visit while in France?

The Eiffel Tower

As much as a school trip involves imparting some education, your students will at some point want to play tourists. What better way to do this than to visit the main attractions in Paris? Incorporating a visit to the Eiffel tower on your school trips to France will help add some fun to the whole experience.

Even though the lines can at times get very long, the wait is usually worth it. You could take a ride on the carousels nearby as you wait for your turn. The views from the tower are nothing short of breath-taking.

The aerial view of the city and the look on the students’ faces as they take it all in are bound to last for a long time.

To Explore French Culture

Paris and France exude a lot of culture. On arrival, you will quickly realize that it has lots to offer. To learn more about Parisian culture, make a visit to the Montmartre. You will need to walk up the stairs to get to the Basilica of the Sacre’ Coeur.

From here, the view of Paris is amazing and is one your students are bound to remember for long. This happens to be the highest point in the city. You can then schedule a visit to the Left Bank to view one of the greatest museums in the city.

To Take in the Boats Floating on River Seine

Taking a boat ride on River Seine provides the students with a great view of some of the greatest buildings in France.

The boat ride will take you to some of the beautiful landmarks in the city such as the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Musee d’Orsay, and Notre Dame.

It is the perfect way for you and the students to see popular sites in France and take some pictures as well.

To Introduce the Kids to French Art

Some of the most popular art pieces in the world are housed in France. A visit to Paris, France will, therefore, prove educational for art and history students. The Musee d’Orsay, housed in a former railway station was completed in 1900 and displays art pieces collected from the period between 1848 and 1914. Art students will get to view pieces from Renoir, Degas, and Monet.
