School Spanish Culture Trip to Valencia
Your Spanish school trip to Valencia will give your students the unforgettable opportunity to totally immerse themselves in the Spanish culture!
Valencia is Spain’s third largest city and a fantastic place to experience and enjoy Spanish language, culture, history and traditions.It’s not easy to combine fine sand beaches, rich history, breathtaking architecture and incredible cuisine, but Valencia manages to do just that!
Take time to explore the city’s many shops, historical monuments and stunning cathedral, before heading out for a fun and adrenaline-filled day excursion to the Terra Mitica theme park, which your students will love! And if you want your students to really focus on their Spanish skills, you can choose to add lessons at a specialist language school.
