belgium

An excellent choice for school groups of all ages. Belgium is packed with history, culture and charm. Historic medieval cities, busy harbours, clean sandy beaches and charming seaside resorts are just some of the many reasons for visiting this delightful friendly country.


 Brussels

The capital of the EU is a sophisticated city, rich in history, with a lively, friendly atmosphere. Any visit should start with a stroll around the Grand Place, a magnificent cobbled square with its flamboyant architecture, lively cafés, chocolate shops and, of course, its cheeky Mannekin Pis statue. In the Royal Quarter, marvel at the Cathedral of Saints Michel and Gudule and the delightful Parc de Bruxelles which is overlooked by the Belgian Parliament. At the southern end of the park lies the impressive Royal Palace. For the most amazing view, a trip to the top of the Atomium is not to be missed.
