"The school was absolutely amazing, the people were incredibly nice and would do anything posible to help you. The family I stayed with were also incredible. They were very good at helping you out with Spanish, and were just very accomodating."
Chris Weaver

Cusco offers our students the best of traditional and modern Peru. Day or night, you’ll find plenty to see and do! After Spanish class, take your time to explore the traditional markets and workshops selling brightly colored textiles and delicious local foods. After sunset, you’ll find Cusco has a lively nightlife, with a wide variety of bars and restaurants. Cusco’s mountain location also makes it the perfect place for every adventure sport you can think of, including rafting, kayaking, hot air ballooning and even hang gliding!
