Introduction

Since 2009 we’ve been offering all-inclusive international travel programs for students interested developing real world travel skills while exploring some of the world's most interesting places as part of a small group.
Our programs seize every opportunity to practice foreign language, navigation, scheduling, collaboration, and budgeting skills with real world activities like cross-referencing street and metro maps, purchasing transit passes, researching opening days/times, navigating an itinerary and staying on schedule, choosing restaurants and making reservations, and eating well while staying within a meal allowance.

Itinerary

The region of Andalusia in the South of Spain is rich in history and is the source of many iconic elements of Spanish culture, such as bullfighting, flamenco dancing, and Moorish architecture.
Our exploration of Andalusia begins in Seville, the seat of economic power during Spain’s colonization of the Americas. Students will visit the Alcázar and the Cathedral of Seville – the largest Gothic cathedral in the world. Travel by train to Cordoba, once the capital of the Moorish Caliphate of Córdoba, then to Granada, site of the impressive Alhambra palace complex, as well as the burial place of the Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand & Isabella.
