The Netherlands — Walibi, Giethoorn & Zwolle with your class
The contrast between the three experiences is part of what makes the programme work: the high-energy theme park bonds the group on Day 1; the silence of Giethoorn's waterways and thatched farmhouses offers a completely different face of the Netherlands on Day 2; and Zwolle's relaxed, student-friendly city centre rounds off the week with heritage and free exploration time.
