More Reviews

This diverse program combines the opportunity to learn Spanish at three separate campus locations with the rewards of community service and the excitement and adventure of travel. The variety of our school locations ensures you benefit from diverse morning, evening, and weekend excursions to complement your in-class instruction. Afternoons are for study (to avoid being outdoors when the sun is the strongest), and mornings and evenings consist of adventure highlights, community service projects, touring, sports or a visit to one of Costa Rica’s fabulous beaches. Surf the Pacific Ocean and chat with the Ticos to practice your Spanish skills – the recipe for an amazing summer!

BONUS: MANUEL ANTONIO ECO RESORT

Visit the most popular and most visited National Park in Costa Rica. Visit the pristine sandy beaches, hike through lush rainforest and view sloths, iguanas and rare squirrel monkeys.
