School Spanish Culture Trip to Granada
Take a Spanish school trip to Granada to give your students the experience of learning Spanish in this stunning city at the foot of the Sierra Nevada mountain range!
Its narrow streets, traditional tapas bars and Arab architecture combine to make up a city of both character and beauty. The highlight of a trip to Granada is a visit to the World Heritage Site of the Alhambra palace, where students can learn about the amazing history of this building and marvel at the artistry of the walls, arches and columns.
A university town, Granada has a very friendly population which welcomes young people, so your students will feel comfortable speaking and practising their Spanish in everyday situations. And if you would like your students to really focus on improving their level of Spanish ahead of their exams, you may be interested in our Language Study Trip to Granada, which includes language lessons and host family accommodation.
