About this trip

Amsterdam offers a great experience for GCSE and A-Level business studies and economics students. A historic hub of trade and finance at the centre of the Dutch Golden Age, students can explore how companies have operated there across the last 400 years. Groups will also gain insight into how business works at scale by visiting the world's largest floral market at Aalsmeer and the impressive Rotterdam Port. 

Classes can learn about the capital's economic history but also enjoy what else the city has to offer with varied cultural activities.

You will learn about Amsterdam’s spectacular growth in the 17th century, but also how many bikes are fished out of the water every year!
