Seville 2024

Trip Highlights

Day 1: Students arrived in Seville and went for a walk to the restaurant. They had the chance to see the beautiful surroundings of the hostel where we stayed. 

Day 2: In the morning, students visited El Real Alcázar, the Seville Cathedral and La Giralda tower. Later in the afternoon, they went on a walking tour of the city, through the quarter of Santa Cruz and finally visiting the famous Plaza de España.

Day 3: To start the day, students had a Spanish lesson in a language school. This was followed by one of the highlights of the trip - a Flamenco lesson led by a professional dancer in El Museo del Baile Flamenco. In the afternoon, students had the opportunity to see the city of Seville from the river Guadalquivir on a boat cruise. 

Day 4: On Thursday, students visited El Museo de Bellas Artes, stopping at the covered market El mercado de Triana. On their way to the museum, students also tried the very famous Churros con chocolate. After that, they all had lunch at Las Setas de Sevilla, a modern urban landmark. During the afternoon, students enjoyed free time in the quarter of Santa Cruz.

Day 5: On the last day, we walked by the river Guadalquivir remembering different anecdotes about Seville we had learnt throughout the week. Students had free time in a local shopping centre, before we started making our way back to the airport.

'It was brilliant to see students engaged in all activities, trying Spanish cuisine and appreciating Spanish culture. They were all keen to practice and develop their speaking skills, especially during the meals asking the waiters questions in Spanish or at the hostel asking the receptionist. We were particularly impressed by their kindness, helping each other and helping us. Overall, it was a great pleasure to take them all to Seville, and we hope they had as much fun as we did'.  Ms Fitipaldi
