Study Spanish in the Sacred Valley of the Incas

Pair Spanish Classes with Cultural Experience of Peru
As everyone sometimes needs a change of perspective, AMAUTA regularly organizes a week Spanish immersion trip to the Sacred Valley, from Sunday to Saturday. Just 90 minutes outside of Cusco by bus, AMAUTA students are offered a totally new perspective of the region of Cusco while improving their Spanish skills.

While living at AMAUTA´s serene location in Yanahuara, the Sacred Valley offers various possibilities to discover the beautiful valley outside of Spanish classes. Students will have their Spanish courses either in the morning or in the late afternoon.

Accommodation is included, and the students will be provided with breakfast and a lovely warm meal a day prepared by our own Peruvian chef.

 

 

 

 

A week in the Sacred Valley benefits AMAUTA students in a various ways: while experiencing this new area of Peru that has a warmer climate, a regular day is a combination of studying Spanish, relaxing, practicing, and experiencing the Peruvian culture in a typical setting without tourists. Because of the good weather, the community of students and the astonishing environment, every day is special. It is the perfect opportunity to escape the busy city of Cusco for a while and enjoy Peruvian countryside.

The intensive Spanish courses in the Sacred Valley are varied, informative and have a small class-size. Possibly, Spanish classes also involve activities that enable students to practice Spanish in real life situations with the local people of the Urubamba area.

Whether it´s sitting together with your classmates at the bonfire while eating guinea pig, going for a hike by the Urubamba River, visiting a ceramic workshop in the (small) city of Urubamba, trying local maiz beer at the chicheria, or just relaxing for a few hours in the hammock, this Spanish Immersion program in Peru satisfies every participant.

 

 

 

 

Starting on Sunday morning, the students will arrive at the city of Urubamba by bus before heading to the campus in Yanahuara. This village is located between Urubamba and Ollantaytambo.

 

 

Various visits are planned throughout the week, such as a (free) hike to the beautiful Salineras (large amount of salt basins), a tour of a local brewery, a visit to the chocolate museum in Cusco and trip the beautiful Inca ruins of Ollantaytambo.

There are many other fun activities to do here too. Students are free to explore the area before or after their Spanish classes in the Sacred Valley, such as the Inca terraces of Moray or other fun hiking spots.

Classes finish on Friday and students are free to travel.

While studying at AMAUTA Peru, it is definitely a worthwhile experience to participate in this unique Spanish program in the beautiful Sacred Valley, all the while improving your Spanish skills.
