In addition to the top notch instruction in conversational Spanish and overall substantive content of the program, he was delighted by the upscale accommodations, the delicious and special dining experiences, the friendships that he developed, and all of the tremendous support from Arthur and Diana.The entire trip was curated to maximize exposure to the local culture, while providing age appropriate independence.
