Fresh ideas for one-day and multi-day excursions with the school class
School trips that are fun or particularly instructive remain in the children and young people’s memories and are welcome highlights of everyday school life. Positive shared experiences also strengthen the feeling of togetherness in the class and the relationship of trust with the teachers.
If you rent a bus from us for your class trip, you will benefit from many years of experience. We have collected many attractive ideas for class trips and school trips for you. We would also be happy to help you with the organisation and planning, taking your individual wishes into account.
Class trip motto: “Science and technology”
School trips to “MINT destinations” make the contents of biology, physics or chemistry lessons understandable and thus all the more interesting. They awaken the spirit of discovery in children and young people and give them completely new insights into the world of science and technology. They also provide valuable support in career orientation. On a school trip focusing on nature, research or computer science, for example, your destination could be a museum, a research institute with an affiliated junior laboratory or a planetarium. Or register for a tour of an industrial plant. In many regions – especially near the coast – there are attractive projects about biology to touch.
With the school class to the climbing park
A class trip to the climbing park focuses on the joy of movement in nature and a touch of adventure feeling. Climbing is not only fun, but also trains motivation, creativity and communication skills. Many climbing parks and high ropes courses offer an experiential educational concept especially for school classes and thus promote teamwork. By supporting each other and mastering the challenges together at lofty heights, the sense of community is strengthened. Popular climbing parks in Hamburg and the surrounding area are the Geesthacht high ropes course located directly on the banks of the Elbe and the Lütjensee Adventure Land. Of its 99 obstacles, 50 are suitable for children from the age of six.
Goodbye school – we go by bus to the leisure or adventure park
Whether on a hiking day, as a communal experience or as a reward for great exam results – a class trip to a leisure or adventure park always generates great enthusiasm. Together, the whole class takes one or more days “holiday” from everyday school life, only to return to the classroom all the more motivated. Boredom in an amusement park is guaranteed not to occur to anyone: Roller coasters promise adrenalin-packed thrills and participants can look forward to rapid sliding fun, contemplative boat tours or impressive shows. Among the top destinations around Hamburg are the Heide Park Resort in Soltau and Hansa-Park Sierksdorf, Europe’s only amusement park directly by the sea. A real classic among the theme parks is Legoland in Billund, Denmark. This destination is ideal for a school trip lasting several days.
Discover the world by bike
Integrating more exercise into everyday school life – a class trip with bicycles makes it possible. Whether it’s a day trip or a class trip lasting several days – if you rent a bus from Elite Traffic for your class trip, transporting bicycles is no problem at all thanks to special trailers. Now all you have to do is decide: Would you like to pedal straight from school and have a bus pick you up at the destination of your bike tour in the afternoon? Or do you want to set off on a longer class trip? Bicycles make you particularly mobile on site and allow you to travel in larger circles around your accommodation. You are even more flexible in your tour planning with our drivers and the coach on site. Particularly popular regions for school trips by bike are the coasts of the North Sea and Baltic Sea, the Mecklenburg Lake District and the Elbe Cycle Route.
School trips to zoos and animal parks
A class trip to a zoo or animal park brings variety to everyday school life and is great fun for the pupils. Such an excursion can also be perfectly integrated into biology or geography lessons. The learning contents can be conveyed in a particularly vivid way. Many zoos and animal parks offer special pedagogical concepts for this purpose, where the pupils can often take a look behind the “scenes” – for example in the breeding station or the feed kitchen. In Hamburg and the surrounding area there is by no means only the world-famous Hagenbeck zoo. Also worth a visit are the Walsrode Bird Park, the Lüneburg Heath and Black Mountains Game Parks or the Sea Life Aquarium in Timmendorfer Strand. If you rent a bus to the Serengeti-Park Hodenhagen, the students can even stay seated during the ride through the enclosures. On the ten-kilometre-long route, the children and teenagers will encounter zebras, bisons, lions and tigers, among others.
Without detour to your destination: By bus to well-known sights
North German brick Gothic in Lübeck, Königstuhl and chalk coast on the island of Rügen, maritime history in Bremen or simply a piece of Hamburg on the island lighthouse Neuwerk… The list of famous sights is almost endless. Having visited some of these highlights is part of the general education. School classes can easily reach famous buildings and other points of interest in Northern Germany by bus. The children and young people simply board the bus directly at the school and get straight to their destination without any annoying changes and independent of fixed timetables. Often the visit of points of interest is also part of a class trip lasting several days. Elite Traffic can provide you with a bus and driver for the duration of your stay. Of course, we are also happy to assist you in organising a suitable sightseeing programme.
Discover the metropolises of Europe with the school class
European metropolises have a lot to offer and a class trip to an exciting city is especially attractive for young people. Classics such as the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, the imposing Sagrada Família church or the canals of Amsterdam are world-famous and invite you to take extensive tours of discovery. And when day turns to night, cultural experiences such as shows, concerts and musicals attract visitors. There is also usually free time for a relaxed shopping spree. Many school trips lead from Hamburg to the capital Berlin. London, Copenhagen and Prague are also very popular destinations.
