It really depends what kind of courts you are talking about and where the courts are. If the courts are federal, then a district court is a trial court and a circuit court is an appeals court, which may review a trial decision from a district court. For state courts, the difference between a district court and a circuit court will depend on what state the courts are in. Many states have courts called "district court" and "circuit court," but what kinds of cases these courts handle differs state to state.
The first level of Federal Courts is the US District Courts, which are courts of original jurisdiction and conduct both criminal and civil trials.The second level is the Appelate Courts which do NOT conduct trials but only hear appeals of trials and verdicts of the US district Courts.The third and highest level of the court system is the US Supreme Court which also does not conduct trials and which is the highest court in the land. It could loosely be termed the "super-appelate" court and whose decision is final in ALL rulings and/or cases having to with Constitutional interpretation.
