Retiree Program
This nine-day program is designed for retirees to get a taste of the heart of Mexico while learning Spanish and enjoying cultural outings. You’ll gain an understanding of the fascinating, diverse and warm Mexican culture through first-hand experiences and interactions with local people.
Begin each weekday with two hours of survival Spanish, a maximum of five students per class. Classes will focus on ways to communicate in Spanish and how to feel comfortable traveling in Mexico.
You can pick and choose among the various activities offered each day. Additional Spanish classes are offered at this time as well for those who want to polish their Spanish skills.
