Granada
Granada is an excellent destination for school groups that would like to learn more about Spanish history and culture. The ancient city has become popular mainly due to the majestic Alhambra Palace, rising out from the peaks of the Sierra Nevada.
Its narrow streets, traditional tapas bars and Arab architecture combine to make up a city of both character and beauty, all explained in detail in our guided walking tour of the Albaicin.
The highlight of a Spanish trip to Granada is a visit to the World Heritage Site of the Alhambra Palace, where students can learn about the amazing history of this building during our guided tour.
Granada is packed full of history and culture and is a spectacular setting for any school Spanish trip, concluding with the traditional flamenco show in the Sacromonte caves.
On a school Spanish trip to Granada, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to converse in Spanish and discover what lies at the heart of the city. A university town, Granada has a very friendly population which welcomes young people, so your students will feel comfortable speaking and practising their Spanish in everyday situations.
