School Religious Studies Trips to Rome

Discover Rome’s rich religious heritage

A city that’s all about the grandeur
From £599pp i

On a religious studies school trip to Rome, students will have the opportunity to reflect on the city’s religious heritage, whilst exploring their own beliefs. The city is simply bursting with enriching experiences, whether it be attending a Papal Audience participation session in St Peter’s Square or exploring the countless places of worship within the city.

As a core destination of Christianity, students will develop informed insights on fundamental questions relating to identity, belonging, purpose, truth, values and commitments – leaving them better positioned to express their own beliefs and discuss differing views.

FAQs about this tour

Find the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.

  • Do you provide risk assessments for hotels?

    Rayburn Tours have individual audits which are completed on every hotel/accommodation centre which we use. We are more than happy for you to see this should you wish. Our audits cover fire safety, means of escape and general safety.

  • What if the weather is bad on tour and it means we have to change our programme?

    It’s no problem at all! If you are accompanied by a Rayburn Tours representative they will be happy to help. Alternatively, call us on the 24-hour emergency line. We will advise on all excursions where necessary, however, it may not always be possible to reschedule all activities in bad weather.

  • What does our insurance cover us for?

    Our insurance providers offer comprehensive cover to our groups for the duration of their tour and is tailored specifically for schools, with specialist insurance policies for individual tour types. As with any insurance cover, it is vital that you read through the terms and conditions and that you declare any relevant information as requested. Please see our insurance page for further information and to see what is covered. For groups opting to take their own insurance, we highly recommend that you read all inclusions and exclusions prior to departure.

  • Is our Tour Manager fully DBS (formerly CRB) checked?

    Our Tour Managers, Field Study Tutors and History Tour Guides, with UK citizenship, have an enhanced DBS check. Non UK citizenship Tour Managers cannot be checked under the DBS scheme. Rayburn Tours will seek confirmation that Tour Managers are suitable for working with children by liaising with relevant foreign agents and monitoring group feedback.

The Capitoline Museums are made up of two buildings on the Piazza del Campidoglio and home to an impressive collection of artwork and archaeological riches, including ancient bronze sculptures and city excavations.
