Schools and Education 

Canterbury is an ideal base for school trips - whether a day visit or a longer stay - as it provides the perfect blend of history, culture, activities and accommodation for young people. Situated in the northern region of Kent, it offers a huge choice of possible activities for groups of young people, a fact that makes it very suitable and famous for school trips and excursions. Whether it is a short trip to the coast, a 90-minute trip by train to London, or a visit to Dover or even to Calais crossing the Channel, there are lots of possibilities to benefit from the trip to Canterbury. On these pages you'll find group activities and itineraries in Canterbury, Herne Bay and Whitstable that will give you plenty of ideas for your tours, packages and programmes to Canterbury and the district's countryside.
