Lands blessed with a wealth of cultural heritage:
Beautiful scenery, historical and artistic riches, famous holy places and sanctuaries are awaiting you, making your holiday a truly special experience.
Lands of culinary tradition and good wines:
Hospitality coming from the heart, authentic recipes, original flavours, exciting scents will make your trip unforgettable.
Lands bathed by crystal clear seas:
A choice of sandy, pebble or rocky beaches. Fantastic bays and enchanting places for spending time together with loved ones, friends, or all by yourself. A true paradise for children, and a chance for adults to enjoy a tailor-made holiday in unspoilt surroundings.
Against the backdrop of those fantastic sceneries you will participate in an intensive language course, learning Italian, English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese or Russian. By using the language in a constant and efficient manner all day long, you will make progress quickly and learn to speak with increased fluency. Choose a course of one, two, three or four weeks’ duration (with the exception of the locally very busy last two weeks of August).
