Our students stay at Campo Aventura Junior Resort in the small village of Olho Marinho, close to the town of Óbidos and the scenic beach area of Peniche. Students are in large multi-bedded rooms and staff in singles where possible. Lots of activities are on-site, including football and volleyball fields, several towers for zip line, an auditorium, a paintball field and much more.
We can send you mini-brochures to hand out at school and a PowerPoint presentation for assemblies and parent’s meetings you may wish to hold. We also have an interactive promotional poster you can put up on walls and noticeboards. This will make it easier for you to get your students excited about your plans.
We have developed an easy to use tour management portal - My Club Europe - just for our customers. With our portal you can manage all the promotion, payments, scheduling, passenger lists and much more with a click of a button. Click here to find out more.
You should book your tour between 8-18 months in advance. This will give us time to secure the best possible accommodation and excursion programme for your tour and you will have ample time for fundraising should you need to do so.
