Destination York! York Explorer & York History, an all-inclusive KS1 & KS2 Residential visit package for 2025/2026

These two great school trip package themes are delivered all year round and cover multiple subject areas. We include all coach travel, accommodation, meals, plus your packed activity schedule.

Why York?

The City of York is a feast for the senses for all ages to enjoy, a city packed with history and culture, with attractions such as the JORVIK Viking Centre, York Minster and the National Railway Museum. It’s easily accessible on foot, offering historic cobbled streets, quirky shops and a wealth of history from Romans & Vikings through to the modern day. 

Who are we?

First Education and School Travel – we are a long-established school tour operator working with over 100 venues and partners across the UK. Our unique all-inclusive approach to school trips reduces many of the pressures that come with organising visits. We make all arrangements on your behalf and include your return coach travel, accommodation, meals, and a full package of activities to be chosen in advance.

The venue:

Your accommodation is based at YHA York, an excellent venue for school group residentials. Located just a stone’s throw from the river and a 30-minute walk to York City Centre, this hostel offers additional on-site adventures making it an ideal base for groups wanting to explore York’s history with added on-site activities.

Be more inclusive:

We understand how the cost-of-living living pressures are affecting some children’s opportunity to take part in a school trip. You can help parents to include their child by moving your trip to a lower season month, thus reducing the cost and encouraging more pupils to take part. Try travelling between October and March when costs are lower.
