A school trip to Paris offers students the chance to get to grips with art, architecture, literature, and history, to name a few. But the city doesn’t solely look back – Paris school tours provide groups with a chance to experience a bustling, cosmopolitan culture that comes complete with a roster of exciting landmarks.
Known as the “City of Light,” Paris is home to iconic landmarks like the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and the stunning Notre-Dame Cathedral. Students can dive into the world of French art, literature, and history, while experiencing the beauty of the city’s architecture and vibrant streets. With its rich cultural heritage and inspiring atmosphere, Paris provides the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable and educational adventure.
A former MFL teacher, Rachael spent the best part of a year living and working in Paris and has been back multiple times with groups. From the wide boulevards to the views from the Eiffel Tower, from the hallowed halls of the Louvre to the buzz of Disney, there’s something for everyone in the City of Light.

Educational tours to Paris are also the natural fit for French language groups. Cultural immersion experiences and language lessons provide students with a chance to brush up their conversational skills with native speakers, while trips to the Académie Francaise provide meaningful context to the development of the language. The group’s activities can run in French, and challenges led by Adventure Leaders allow students to explore real-world immersion with a fun twist.
For students of business, history, or literature, school trips to Paris allow students to walk in the footsteps of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Hemingway, explore the Banque de France’s Citéco Museum, or visit the National Archives to study documents from the French Revolution.
The city’s international and regional transport links also means that educational tours can venture outside the city, with multi-destination school trips to Lyons and Marseille helping to further enrich students’ understanding of their subject.
While Paris provides the opportunity for a plethora of visits and exciting hands-on experiences, there are some firm favourites, without which no school trip to Paris is complete:
It’s always worth avoiding Paris in the summer months between June and August, when the crowds mean that it’s harder to maximise your time. For schools, March to May and September to October provide the same seasonal weather, but afford groups more space to explore.
Absolutely. If there’s something specific to your curriculum goals you’d like to tick off, or a must-see for you, just let us know. For example, you might decide you’d like more French-language practice activities throughout the duration of your educational tour to Paris.
