Our Company

Story of Senlac 1066

A school trip to Hastings led to the founding of SENLAC Tours. Angelika arrived as teacher with a school group in Hastings, met Bryan and stayed. Over 36 years ago Angelika and Bryan set the foundation for a successful company. Bryan already had longstanding experience in tourism as he was a director of Study Tours and Angelika brought along knowledge from her teaching years in Berlin. Right from the start, students and teachers came first. Each school trip or teacher trip were and still are built around the individual needs of the group.

Today SENLAC Tours has offices in three countries. It is very important to us to have personal contact with our customers. As Germans and Swiss living alongside our English partners in the UK, we make culture exchange possible. We can offer exclusive insider knowledge to help you plan your group trip.

SENLACS TEAM

Yesterday and today

Host families in England

We have known some of our host families for over 20 years. In many cases, we are now working with the 3rd generation of the family so we have become good friends. Our 24-hour emergency phoneline is open to customers, teachers and students.

1066 William the Conqueror

In our free time we can relax in the beautiful landscape of 1066 Country. We climb Senlac Hill in Battle, where William the Conqueror defeated King Harold. We also recommend a visit to the Battle Museum of Local History on the High Street.

Hiking in England

Our favourite activity at any time of year is hiking. One of the most beautiful trails in Sussex is the 1066 Path. The section from Rye to Hastings is 21 kilometres long and offers breath-taking views from the Country Park.

School trips to England

We enjoy offering a personal service. We have been working with some schools for over 25 years. We are always happy to welcome our groups directly off the coach. Our guests can benefit from our experience.

Hostel in the House of Horizons

The Münster" cathedral of Bad Doberan is only a few minutes’ walk from our office. We personally supervise school trips and day trips to Bad Doberan on site.

Internship in England

Those were the days before Brexit when an internship was possible without a visa. We are awaiting new entry regulations so that high school graduates and students can do internships in England again.

Our lambs

We have had our own sheep in the meadows by the house for over 25 years. A lawnmower was superfluous. Every year we saw the lambs grow up.

Teacher trips to Scotland

We are often in Scotland, Yorkshire and the Lake District. For our teachers and "friends of the island" we have planned and supervised trips to Cornwall, Wales, Scotland and Ireland.

Class trip to Hastings

One of the most beautiful places on the Sussex coast is Hastings. It is a short journey from Dover and we can welcome our guests personally.

London sightseeing tours

We know all the best places for excursions and are happy to accompany our groups. Our English colleagues give lessons in the local language with typical British humour.

1066 Country

The landscape is impressive and breathtakingly beautiful. Short trips and walks during lunch break make the boundaries between work and leisure disappear.

Hastings bus parking

An unusual sight: Falaise Road without buses during the pandemic. Fortunately, from 2022 groups have been able to travel to England again and this sight has become a thing of the past.

Mecklenburg Lake District

We are all happy on and around the water and try all the sports that our guests might enjoy ourselves.

On the road again

Our last trip before Covid allowed us to get together without any restrictions. Our next destination will be Barcelona once again.

Senlac's Travels

We do a trip together every year

Group trip to Berlin

As a team we tried hanging yoga and team escape. Our English colleagues were impressed by the escape tunnels.

Musical in Hamburg

We visited the Speicherstadt, the harbour and the Binnenalster. The ferry ride to the Lion King Musical was as impressive as the musical itself.

Day trip to Rochester

Our team and host families visited the Christmas market by coach. A day with feasting and fun.

Day trip to Kent

The Gravity Trampoline Park in Maidstone was a lot of fun. If you go on a school trip to Rochester, this is a great activity for all ages.
