Primary School Tours

We have been hosting primary school tours for over 25 years and have very experienced and friendly tour guides.  We are based near Glendalough, about an hour south of Dublin, in the beautiful Wicklow hills. 

A primary school tour at Greenan Maze includes an educational, active and full day outing which includes elements of heritage and local history, nature and environmental activities, and age specific tours. We believe in giving a high quality tour and therefore only host two groups per day. Tours can last from 2 ½ to 4 hours depending on your requirements.

We also provide undercover lunch tables and free tea/coffee for teachers.
We are delighted to cater to your schools specific needs and you can mix and match the activities to your special requirements.

Secondary School Tours

On our nature activity tour, students learn about biodiversity in natural and farmed environments as they explore fields, hedgerows and woodlands. They’ll identify common Irish wildflowers and insects, with hands-on opportunities to discover some of the weirdest ones! Examining the unseen world, students understand the importance of tiny creatures in the food web, including their impact on our meals. Additional activities in our farm museums highlight how lifestyle changes affect nature and ways to restore balance.

Aligned with science, geography, history curricula and the Green Schools programme, talks can be tailored to your needs. Let us know what you need—we’d love to chat!

We host up to 50 students per day in two groups of 25. Tours last up to two hours and cost €30 per secondary student. We’re happy to cater to specific requirements anytime.

Testimonials

“The perfect family day out! We love it here… the maze, the woodland trails with information, fairy doors & little houses. The happy animals are always fun to see, there are house & farm museums too.  Back to the playground then to get some paninis and delicious coffee. Time slows down perfectly”

Mo Dowling, 2025

“This is a lovely place to bring the kids for a day out. Great treasure hunt will keep them busy going around and a little treat at the end if they complete it.  There is 2 very good mazes here, also lots of animals to look at the, the place is beautiful, clean, well kept. Nice coffee shop and seating area. Well worth a visit”

John Dooley, 2024

Thank you to Anita, Will and all the team for making our school tour so enjoyable to Greenan. The pupils absolutely loved their visit and all the exciting activities that were organised for them. They loved the nature walk, wheelbarrow races, feeding the farm animals and seeing all the old artefacts in the museum. A highlight was definitely the maze!! The tour guides were brilliant with the children and made it such a fun day for us. We can’t wait to return again this year for another wonderful tour!!

Nadia Campbell, Taney Parish Primary School, Dundrum, Dublin, 2025

“We went on our school tour to Greenan Maze – we had a brilliant time! The children had so much freedom and at the same time learned a lot about the history of farming. The mazes and games with the wheelbarrows were a big hit. The staff super with our boys, really patient and great fun. I would highly recommend this for a school tour – THANK YOU for a great day out!”

Davida Geraghty, St. Cronan’s Boys National School, Bray, 2025

“Greenan Farm Museums & Maze has been my go-to location for school tours for the past 2 decades! I’ve brought 1st, 2nd and 3rd class groups here and they’ve all loved the venue! The booking process is hassle-free, reasonably cost effective for parents and the children have been thoroughly entertained by the many activities organised for them. There is plenty to do in all weather. The staff engage well with the children and we always have a great day!”

Clare Dillon, Johnstown Girls NS Dublin, 2024

“Adored this place, nestled amongst stunning mature trees and rolling streams, strolling in wildness, delightful encounters in nature around every corner.  The hut is comfortable, interesting museums and lovely little coffee shop. Many thanks to Anita & Will for your obvious commitment and hard work to champion biodiversity. We will be back!!”

Eleanor, Airbnb

“My second time staying here! It was really enjoyable and I nice get away out of Dublin for a night. The sauna and lake were lovely, I would definitely recommend for a wholesome getaway”

Amy, Airbnb

“A very unique experience done in a very good way, if we had known exactly how cool it was going to be (our own open fire, sauna sessions available, a beautiful stream and endless woodlands and farm to explore, etc) we definitely would have stayed longer! Blissful isolation without any of the hassle basically! And the owners are very sound people with a very warm vision of what they want the place to be. Highly recommend”
