Top visits

Spanish Cooking Class

Groups can practise their Spanish as they visit the local fish auction or vegetable market to source the ingredients they’ll need to create a 3 course meal, before returning to the cookery school to prepare, cook and eat their delicious creations!

Figueres

This typically Catalan town is famous as the birthplace and resting place of the artist Salvador Dalí. It’s also home to a fascinating toy museum and numerous shops and cafés. 

Girona

One of Catalonia’s most attractive towns. Its well-preserved old buildings and narrow stepped streets provide a delightful experience for students to explore its mix of Arabian and Jewish influences. Highlights include a visit to the Arabian baths, the Gothic Cathedral and the Jewish Quarter.


Evening activities

  • A quiz or disco at your hotel (many hotels can provide a room for groups to use in the evenings)

Educational resources

Free Go Explore journals

We understand that learning resources form an important part of a language tour. Our free Go Explore educational resources are a great tool for pupils to record their language experience and build their confidence when exploring another culture, language and location.

With space to add information, pre-visit notes, a daily journal about what they’ve seen and learnt and space for relevant vocabulary our journals are useful for assisting in controlled assessment preparation and is a valuable memento of time spent abroad.
