Spanish Language Immersion Tour of Playa Tamarindo
Whatever your curriculum and educational needs, we work with you to customize the right program for your students. Every day of the tour is built around a different theme of your choice that merges daily language classes, cultural activities and local cultural immersion. EF’s classes within our International Language Schools provide students with the context and relevant vocabulary they’ll require to navigate each experiential activity. From start to finish, your Language Immersion Tour Director will be there to support your students and their language learning.
