School trips to London and the Thorpe Park Theme Park

London is a vibrant capital with many exciting sights, museums and exhibitions. Our school trips to London can be adapted to include your own choice of visits. Most schools will want to take a prebooked flight on the British Airways London Eye along with a river cruise. The London Eye has become one of the city's most recognizable landmarks and is a great way to see the city. A visit to Parliament Square, The London Dungeons and the London Aquarium can be easily combined, followed by sightseeing cruise along the Thames past the Houses of Parliament. The WW2 Cabinet Rooms and Imperial War Museum are very popular visits.

Venture into uncharted territories as you go in search of a lost group of archaeologists. Brave the unknown as Bix and Ting, your guides, pilot you across borders and into new worlds. What will you discover on your journey? Will you find the lost archaeologists? And more importantly... will you return safely?

London Dungeons

The London Dungeons is a very popular visit with teengagers who seem to love being terrified! There are several zones of horror: Labyrinth of the Lost is a large mirror maze themed around the crypt of All Hallows Church in London. The Great Plague show is set in 1665 during the Great Plague of London, and London is depicted as riddled with bubonic plague, with thousands dying in agony.
