School groups LOVE The Adventure Park at Virginia Aquarium!

Our school field trips get your students out from behind the desk and into adventure!

Get your students outside and into an environment that encourages them to use their minds and bodies. Students will feel motivated and gain problem-solving skills, improve their motor skills, and build self-esteem and confidence.

The Adventure Park is more than just a fun activity: By successfully completing challenge courses, students gain a positive mindset leading to leadership skills, facilitating a hands-on approach to your lesson plan—supporting your classroom dynamic and courses in a unique, engaging way.

School Field Trip Packages Include:

  • 3 hours of climbing and zip lining
  • All necessary climbing equipment
  • Safety briefing and practice time – no climbing experience needed!
  • Free bus parking
  • No charge for non-climbing participants

Ask our Group Sales Team for details about support for individuals with special needs.
