Best One Day Field Trips for Students

One day field trips are typically the most convenient field trip choice for students of all ages, a chance to get out and learn something new in a new place, without booking a hotel or getting all the permission forms passed out. These short trips allow students to experience travel on a small basis, something we think is necessary for life to grow as a person outside of education.

Our company strives to provide you and your students with the absolute best field trip experience, our over 18 years of hard work standing as a testament to what we can accomplish for your group. We have perfected the art of getting student groups where they need to go in a safe, efficient, and really fun manner, especially when it comes to One Day Trips.

Below is a sample of some of our top-selling one-day destinations, the full proposed times and descriptions on the links provided.

We can easily make one of these trips happen for you, though one of our big things here at Adventure Student Travel is being completely customizable, so if you only want half the day, or if you want to add in your own destination, that’s completely fine. Actually, we encourage it.

So, you want to take our 1-Day Chicago Vacay? How about our Orlando Breakaway? How about booking an overnight stay? Whatever you want, bring it on, we can handle it!
