An exclusive trip, that will fascinate students, teachers and parents
A magic getaway to a safe and sunny coastal city of Spain. We have both a person in Minnesota and one in Valencia with connections in the town that gives us access to places like the cathedral's bell tower and the sailing club at the harbor. We are also connected to the best private hospital in the area which grant us faster access to care if needed. We focus on culture and language through outdoor activities. By specializing in just one city, Valencia, we are able to provide students with opportunities through long time shared partnerships. This experience is proven to boost student’s maturity and their choice of language immersion courses in Middle and High school. We combine Spanish culture and language with the warmth and care of living with a host family.
Our goal is for all students to have a comfortable stay. Teachers love the opportunity to travel abroad with a good balance of free time to explore Spain. Parents also enjoy coming along, with plenty of flexibility and optional separate tourism for them.
Our goal is for all students to come. We help coordinate several fundraising campaigns. We offer flexible traveling dates which facilitate cheaper flights. We deal directly with all businesses in Spain, saving on intermediaries and making the trip more affordable.
Valencia is a super safe and beautiful coastal city in Spain with 300 days of sun every year! Spaniards, known to be easy going and caring with tourists, promote language use and feeling safe. World renowned Arts and Sciences Museum with futuristic structures, filled with biking paths, historic downtown and more. A trip to Madrid or Barcelona can be added as well.
We adjust the curriculum, activities, language and culture lessons, lodging, teachers, chaperones, length, dates, teacher ratio and more to match your school's mission, goals and budget.
Best medical insurance included in Spain. Trip information, document gathering, individual requests and questions/concerns quickly managed and solved by the academy's host. Travelers picked up at the airport.
The academy that we partner with has over 20 years of experience with international language trips. Host families have all hosted international students before and enjoy the experience of meeting new students.
I chaperoned this trip and my daughter and husband also accompanied the group. Once we arrived in Valencia, we quickly realized how wonderfully organized this trip was! Buses and staff were there to greet us. Host families were there waiting at the pick up location.
And the city of Valencia felt beyond safe, bounding with Spanish culture and history to explore. Each day that we were there was so well organized with the perfect balance of ample learning activities and downtime. We saw the 6th graders often and were there to reassure them that the jet lag and initial uncertainties were normal. Time and time again, my entire family was so impressed with each event-the coordination, the planning, and the ability to pivot to a back up plan if needed. Before we left for the trip and since we have been home, there has been quite a buzz amongst our family and friends about this trip!
Our entire family, both parents a 3rd grader, as well as our 6th grader, were privileged enough to have travelled to Spain this spring for what was one of the most enriching experiences we've ever had as a family. For our 6th grader, Lucia, this trip exposed her to new people, culture, and experiences that simply could not have been duplicated in any other setting. The trip pushed her to new and sometimes uncomfortable lengths, which will undoubtedly serve her immensely for the rest of her life. What Lucia alone has gained as a person, a student, and a world citizen more than justifies the effort and cost of this trip for us. We see in both our children now a realization that the world is bigger than just the U.S., but also more accessible than ever imagined. We are forever thankful for the incredible efforts of the various individuals that made all this possible
It was incredible when we finally landed in Spain. I was jumping up and down and the whole plane was clapping and, it is safe to say that Spain was the most incredible time of my life. To really experience the Spanish culture was more than anything I could’ve imagined. It was so educational and fun and brain boggling that I can barely even explain it. Living with a host family was incredible. We had the most fun together and had so many laughing moments. Me and my friends quickly bonded with their sons. They were awesome! We would do everything together, including watching a lot of soccer and playing a lot as well. The host parents were some of the best people I will ever meet. We had a really good connection. Spain was really something special. It opened the world up to all of us.
At our core, we are a dedicated team of educators, united by a shared passion for opening young minds to the world's diverse wonders. Hailing from both Minnesota and Spain, we bridge continents to create extraordinary travel experiences. Our journeys to English, French, and German-speaking countries have painted our perspectives with a global palette, igniting our mission to inspire the same in our students.
Drawing on our varied backgrounds, we craft immersive travel adventures that are so much more than trips – they're transformative odysseys. Our aim? To cultivate personal growth and cultural enrichment in every young explorer. When students venture beyond their borders, they step into a world of languages, traditions, and stories waiting to be discovered. These experiences, we believe, become the bedrock of a more inclusive and connected global society.
Our journey isn't just about travel; it's about understanding. We've felt the currents of being new to a land, and this resonance fuels our commitment. Much like an immigrant student's journey, we're here to empower today's youth to shape their futures through the power of education and shared experiences. Imagine a tapestry woven with threads of empathy and understanding. That's what our travel program seeks to create. A tapestry that's colored by students from all walks of life, breaking down stereotypes, and nurturing cultural sensitivity. In this, we align with a kinder, more equitable world—a vision we hold close to our hearts.
When we design these journeys, we imagine our own children walking those paths. Safety, fun, and immersive learning experiences are at the core of our planning. We want these trips to be everything we'd want for our own loved ones. This endeavor isn't just about classrooms expanding; it's about communities coming together. We've seen the power of collaboration and community-building in action, and we bring this ethos to every aspect of our programs. Students, teachers, parents, and communities all contribute to the vibrant tapestry of learning that unfolds across borders.
Through the stories of students who've walked this path before, we've seen academic achievements soar, horizons broaden, and lives enriched. We understand concerns about logistics, safety, and costs, and we've meticulously crafted plans that address them, ensuring a seamless and secure experience for all.
Our dream of a kinder world, rooted in education, drives us forward. We believe that by giving students these transformative experiences, we're sowing seeds of positive change that will grow into a future we're proud to leave behind.
And, just like any great journey, we invite students to join us in shaping their own destinies. Their enthusiasm and passion fuel our purpose, and their stories become the living proof of the impact of these adventures. As we embark on this venture, we invite you to join us in building a legacy. Together, we're creating not just trips, but life-altering journeys that weave into the fabric of students' lives, leaving an indelible mark on the world they will one day shape.
Tailored to the specific needs of each school, every trip is truly unique. Prices fluctuate based on your preferences and adjustments to the itinerary. The core package already encompasses an array of enjoyable activities and language lessons. Students lodge with host families while chaperones stay in a hotel or apartment. Every aspect is customizable, with flights as the only separate component.
