Business Studies School Trips

Need something bespoke?

Halsbury Sticker

Bring business studies to life with a school trip that takes students beyond the textbook. From global markets and finance to marketing, production and human resources, they'll see how the ideas explored in class shape real organisations and economies. 

Choose from Brussels, Barcelona and the Costa Brava, Frankfurt, Prague, New York, Paris and Tokyo. Students could explore major financial centres, examine international brands and discover how businesses respond to different economic, technological and cultural environments.

Your trip will be tailored to your specific learning objectives to deepen understanding and give students memorable examples they can draw on in lessons and exams.

Popular Destinations For Business Studies trips

Why arrange a business studies school trip?

Explore important financial centres

You’ll be able to choose from a great range of destinations for your trip, including some of the world’s most important financial centres, such as Frankfurt, New York and Tokyo, where students can learn about how and why these cities have become so important to the global economy.

Frankfurt is home to both the European Central Bank and the Deutsche Bundesbank and is considered the financial capital of the Eurozone. As such, it should be no surprise that so many of the world’s top companies have their European headquarters based in the city. It is also home to one of the world’s largest stock exchanges.

Meanwhile, New York is considered the finance capital of the world and is home to Wall Street. Many Fortune 500 and Fortune 1000 companies have based themselves in the city, as have many of the world’s biggest banks, including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan.

Or you could head to Tokyo, the capital of the world’s third-largest economy and another important financial centre. Many of the world’s largest investment banks are based in the city. A highlight of your trip to Japan will be the Tokyo Stock Exchange, where your business studies students can take part in a game where they simulate trading stocks!

Learn more about brands

If you’re looking for educational tours where your students can learn more about the development of brands, the importance of innovation, research and development or even global marketing strategies, then we’ve got plenty of options for you.

You could choose to visit Paris, where you can visit a variety of businesses, from a local bakery to Charles de Gaulle Airport.

You could even pop over to Europe’s biggest theme park, Disneyland® Paris, to discover the marketing behind the magic – you can enjoy a specialist workshop and learn more about the Disney brand. Pupils will also learn about the corporate structure and the various roles within the organisation.

Or in Barcelona, you can visit a variety of well-known brands, from wineries and breweries to newspapers and even footballing behemoth, FC Barcelona!
