School Excursions

Based in Byron Bay, Summerland Coaches has been planning and operating school excursions for over 15 years. During this time we have built an excellent relationship with schools in Northern NSW and SE Queensland.

During 2004 Summerland Coaches conducted more than 40 excursions. From the Snowy Mountains, to the Sunshine Coast, west to Dubbo and the major capital cities, diverse programmes were arranged for students of all ages.

Our experienced tour planners and drivers enjoy the challenge of arranging innovative itineraries that will ensure students of all ages are kept fully interested and enjoy their experience. We work closely with you during the planning stage, offer suggestions, arrange accommodation, admission, entry permits ect. We believe our role is to provide an efficient, comprehensive and seamless service.

Due to the volume of exersions and tours we are able to negotiate favourable rates. Our experienced drivers and guides have a wide knowledge of the regions we visit, facilitate transfers efficiently and whilst understanding the importance of operating to schedule know those interesting out of the way places that make the day special.

Summerland Coaches can design a tour just for you, let us know what you want to see and do and we'll do the rest!
