Czech Republic school trip highlights
Skoda Factory
At the Skoda factory in Prague, students will watch an introductory film and be taken through the various stages of the car manufacturing process as they witness the mass production process of one of the world's biggest car brands. A questions and answer session is also available.
Cerge Institute
For students of business, economics, or politics, a visit to the CERGE institute is an exceptionally interesting experience. Here, students will receive a lecture covering several key topics including the Czech Republic’s political system, economic development, GDP, sector shares, state budgets, inflation, unemployment and import and export. A question and answer session is also available.
Ruckl Glass Factory
Groups can watch glass being melted then later cut into ornament patterns. This visit offers students a great contrasting experience to the mass production seen at the Skoda factory.
Prague Castle
The largest medieval castle complex in Europe and one of the most impressive collections of buildings in the city. Today, it is the seat of the President of the Czech Republic, serving as the historical and political centre of both city and state.
Walking Tour of Prague
A half day tour of Prague on foot and public transport with your local guide will cover all the major historical sites of the city: Old Town Square, Charles Bridge, Malá Strana (including Church of St Mikulas) and the Castle District.
