Activities
Visit some of the best mountain ranges in the US and have some great skiing experiences. There are some world renowned ranges in Aspen, Colorado, that you could visit and indulge in some skiing.

There is a wide variety of animal and plant life there that you could watch and learn from. The peace that comes with it is something that cannot be put down in words.
If you want to experience the thrill of the journey more than making it to the destination, think about the different train and sea cruises that are offered. Granted, the destination will be grand, but ‘getting there’ will heighten the fun and adventure even more. Plan with your class the kind of destination they want to go to, and then set about researching the best trains or cruises that are offered to get there. Got to be one of the most fun vacation ideas of all time.
Camping is one of the most popular choices for cheap vacation ideas, and make for great trips. Everyone must have camped at some time or the other with their family or friends.

If your budget is extravagant enough, you could even visit a different country. Go on a tour of Europe or visit a small town in India. The experience of getting to know different cultures, cuisines, and people will be extraordinary. And we bet this will be a unique experience that will stay with you forever.
