Mendoza is a beautiful, small city located near the Andes. Because of its ideal location and abundant natural offerings, we have chosen it as the stop-over between cities. Students will have a full weekend to enjoy such activities as downhill or cross-country skiing, horseback riding, mountain biking, wine country touring, hiking, or simply relaxing and enjoying the city's museums, nightlife, cafes, etc. 3.1 What type of transportation do we use between cities? Both Chile and Argentina have excellent long distance buses. Our package includes direct overnight service on very comfortable "semi-cama" buses.3.2 How long are the journeys? Buenos Aires-Mendoza: 14 hours3.3 Why do we not start and end in the same city? Many travelers choose to continue on route through South America (i.e. Bolivia or Brazil) and so do not want to pay a return fare. However, for those wishing to start and end in the same city, we will help arrange an affordable bus or airfare back to the origin.3.4 May I fly instead? We can help arrange special student airfares once you are here and enrolled, however most choose the comfortable and more economic buses.4. Accommodations 4.1 What lodging is included in the price?

On the registration page simply indicate the dates you plan to start your extra studies.5.3 How early should I register? For the special packages, it is necessary to register a minimum of four weeks before your intended start date to guarantee placement in the Spanish classes. We are also able to keep our prices low by acquiring group ticket and hotel rates and must know how many seats/rooms to reserve. 6.1 What will the weather be like? 6.2 Are meals included in the packages? Meals are not included in the prices. Some students like to cook all of their own meals, others always dine out, some have special requirements, etc.6.3 This package sounds excellent.

Please check our web page to find the next program start dates. Students may also combine schools at anytime with independent travel in between schools.return to top
