About this school trip

As the capital of Europe, Brussels is the ideal destination for a study trip on the European Union, politics and multilingualism. At the Parlamentarium, the European Parliament's visitor centre in the European Quarter, your students discover interactively how European decision-making works. The exhibition can be followed in all 24 official EU languages. By appointment, you can also visit the Parliament itself.

Students experience the multilingualism of Brussels all over the city, where French and Dutch are spoken side by side. On the Grand-Place stand the Town Hall, the Maison du Roi with the Brussels City Museum, and guildhalls from the late seventeenth century. The Atomium, built for the 1958 World's Fair, offers a sweeping view over the city from its top sphere. That way you combine politics, history and engineering in a single trip.

We are happy to provide transport for you and your students to Brussels, with a rest stop along the way. Once there, the coach takes your group easily from the European Quarter to the Atomium. Our experienced driver ensures a safe and comfortable journey.
