About this school trip
With its vast port, Hamburg is a perfect destination for a study trip on port logistics, geography and economics. On a harbour cruise, your students see up close how container ships are loaded and unloaded and how a global port operates. Suddenly the theory of trade flows, supply chains and globalisation becomes very real.
In the Speicherstadt, the historic warehouse district that has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site together with the Kontorhausviertel since 2015, they discover how goods used to be stored and traded. In neighbouring HafenCity, they see how a former port area is being transformed into a new city district. Miniatur Wunderland, with its gigantic model railway and miniature airport, also shows how transport and logistics fit together on a small scale.
We are happy to provide transport for you and your students to Hamburg. From the north of the Netherlands the city is an easy day's drive, with a rest stop along the way. In our comfortable coach with an experienced driver, your group travels safely to Hamburg and back to school.
