What our travellers are saying...

The whole experience was excellent the school was one of the best I've been to in Spain and the extra activities at night were very well organised and really enjoyable. My apartment was in a very old building in a very quiet street, the apartment itself was fine but the building looked very old and there was no escalator up two flights of stairs.

Nadine, Ireland

I had a wonderful time in Valencia. I was extremely nervous being 60+ with all the students in my class under 25 yrs but was very motivated, was pleased with my listening skills and, at A1 level, happy with how far I went in a week. Would love longer if work permitted!
