This method is done to reduce the boredom of students who follow learning in conventional ways, so that it will also divert students to pay attention to the real world rather than cyberspace. This paper is intended to analyze: (1) the relevance of the use of field trip methods in achieving competence; (2) relevant field trip objects; (3) the potential for the use of tourism work in increasing students’ awareness of the environment; (4) field trips can support teachers ‘efforts in achieving students’ competency in social studies subjects. This study uses a qualitative approach using document analysis methods. The results of the study describe the relevance of the use of the field trip method in achieving student competence in the domains of the positive, affective, and psychomotor in social studies learning. The use of field trips must be supported by the selection of relevant objects in studying and analyzing social issues in the concepts of social studies that students can do.
