0115 9404 303School Spanish trip to Valencia
Valencia is Spain’s third largest city and definitely a good place to experience and enjoy Spanish language, culture, history and traditions.
Valencia's array of cultural activities is enormous. It's not easy to combine fine sand beaches, rich history, breathtaking landscape and original cuisine but you can find it all at Gandia, in the La Safor district. Take time to explore the city's many shops, historical monuments and cathedral and for a fun and adrenalin filled day excursion enjoy the Terra Mitica theme park, which your students will love.
