International school tours in The Arts

At Latitude Group Travel, we bring the world of The Arts to life! 

We design inspiring arts school tours that are carefully linked to The Arts curriculum both in Australia and abroad, including Visual Arts, Media Arts, and IB subjects. Whether you’re planning exciting local or international arts tours, we create experiences that support both the Australian Curriculum and IB learning outcomes, with a focus on creative thinking, technical skill and reflection.  

Arts school trips tailored for you 

At Latitude Group Travel, we make arts school tours exciting, seamless, and completely tailored to your students. Whether your students study visual arts, music, drama or dance, these tours encourage them to explore different styles and techniques, create original work, and think critically about the art they experience. Both curricula ask students to respond to artworks, reflect on how art connects with cultural and historical contexts, and develop their own artistic voice. Collaboration, experimentation and independent thinking are also key parts of their learning. These tours also give students the chance to explore future pathways in the creative industries. Through workshops with practicing artists, visits to galleries, performances and backstage tours, students gain practical insights into how professional artists, designers and performers work. This real-world experience can help students see how their skills and interests could translate into careers in fields like visual arts, design, theatre, music, film, fashion or creative technologies. 

There are endless options on our customised tours; we are the only tour company in Australia to combine the Arts and Performing Arts in a single trip if you wish. We’re experts at managing multi-group tours; safety is always our top priority, with over 35 years of experience in student group travel. With our friendly, knowledgeable team by your side every step of the way, you can relax knowing we’ve got every detail covered. 

THE ARTS SUBJECT ACTIVITIES

Our itineraries allow your group to take in iconic sights, combined with as many classes, workshops, themed guided tours, Q & A sessions with professionals, one on one coaching, attending shows and curriculum-linked, experiential learning activities as you wish. We ensure that academic and practical endeavours are age and experience appropriate. Our knowledge of the curriculum (state, national and International Baccalaureate, along with any other curriculum you may teach) and our consultative process, ensures that we understand the learning outcomes required for your tour.
