Secondary School Tours

Inclusive School Tours for 1st to 6th Years!

Bring your year (or entire school!) to the Alive Outside Adventure Centre in the stunning 800-acre Killruddery Estate, Bray, Co. Wicklow for an unforgettable Secondary School Tour!

​

Home to HELL & BACK and Ireland's Fittest Family and only minutes from the M50, Alive Outside is Ireland's leading outdoor activity provider - so your students will be guaranteed a brilliant day's adventure in the stunning Wicklow countryside!

Prepare for a unique, action-packed day out unlike anything else in the country!

Our hugely-popular School Tours, which can be customised to suit any secondary school year from 1st to 6th Years, are brought to you by the guys who run HELL & BACK, and are all about the outdoors, fresh air and nature – essentially it’s back to basics for your students, free form their mobiles and devices!

​

Plus, we're fully aware that not everyone wants to take part in the physical runs and challenges - so we've got packages that are inclusive for all your students, whatever additional needs some may have, including Archery, Ireland's first Outdoor Escape Room and Team Building Games.

​

Inclusivity is Central to Everything we do! 

At Alive Outside, we’re working very hard to make sure we provide activities that are suitable for everyone. We want every secondary school student that visits our Adventure Centre to have the same opportunity to participate to the best of their ability and desire, and so are working with Hannah Bryson, an Accessibility Consultant, to improve our School Tour packages and make them even more inclusive.


We also know that not every student will want to take part in a mainstream activity with the rest of their class. So, to involve those who may be less physical or sporty, we can provide fully inclusive activities that cater for all.


Click here for the Secondary School Tour options that are now available to book, including some exciting new activities we’ve just added for 2024.

 

We can even arrange for lunch to be delivered to the Adventure Centre, making your Alive Outside trip even more memorable!
