Granada was one of our original destinations and continues to be popular for educational tours whether it is for Language, History or a cross curricular tour that is just fun.
Over the years we have listened to group leaders and sourced itineraries we feel offer balanced, bespoke tours to our groups.
As ever, the itineraries listed are offered as a guide or to be adopted in full. They are designed to include time for language sessions, as preferred. We will create a tour that is as individual to us as it is to you. If there is another city or destination that interests you but is not listed, please contact us for more information and a tailor-made quote.

Example Itineraries for our 2026 trips
Our tours typically last five days, but we can easily customise the itinerary for shorter or longer stays to suit your group's needs. The example below is tailored for a school-led visit, but if you prefer, we can also arrange formal language lessons at a dedicated language school, so please feel free to ask for more details.
On Day 1, upon arrival, your group will transfer to the hotel where you will have some time to settle in and get used to your surroundings. This will be followed by a language session designed to help students practice useful phrases and vocabulary relevant to their trip. In the evening, everyone will enjoy a dinner at the hotel to relax and prepare for the exciting days ahead.
Day 2 begins with a visit to the magnificent Alhambra palace and the lush Generalife gardens, giving your students the opportunity to explore Granada's rich Moorish history and architecture. Afterwards there will be a fun treasure hunt activity and dedicated language practice for new vocabulary learned during the visit. In the evening, the group will experience the atmosphere of the Arab tea houses, where they can enjoy traditional drinks and the local culture.
On Day 3, the morning will be spent on a trip to Trevelez and the Alpujarras region, where students will conduct street questionnaires, which lets them practice their conversational skills in a real world setting. Later, there will be a walking tour of the Albaicin, Granada's historic old quarter, with its narrow winding streets and stunning viewpoints. The evening will feature a lively Flamenco lesson, where students will learn about this passionate Spanish art form firsthand.
Day 4 offers a visit to the Cuevas Sacremonte, famous for their unique cave houses and rich cultural history. Following this, students will have free time to explore local shops or visit the bustling Arab market, providing opportunities for shopping and cultural immersion. The day concludes with a delightful tapas dinner at a local restaurant, giving your students a taste of authentic Andalusian cuisine.
On Day 5, the group will prepare for departure by transferring to the airport for the return journey to the UK, taking with them unforgettable memories and new language skills.
Why not extend your exploration of Andalucia by visiting nearby cities such as Seville, Cordoba, or Ronda? These destinations offer further opportunities to learn about the region's fascinating history, culture, and architecture, making your trip even more memorable.
