Product Details

In small groups we travel through South America. We Learn, we Volunteer, we Explore!

Learn

Learn Spanish in the dramatic Inca city of Cusco. Stay with local families and absorb the dance, the music, the food, the art of this vibrant culture. Our lessons take place in the mornings giving you the afternoons and evenings free to explore or help out with our street children project. Weekends are free to white-water raft in the Sacred Valley or mountain bike in the high Andes.

A one week refresher course in South America’s most beautiful capital city, Quito is also included.
