On an Equity group tour to Spain, if you're looking for excursions specifically focused on languages, we would suggest a good mix of excursions that will take you around the city you're visiting and explore the region's past. As you go, we'll be sure to take you to the local markets, shopping areas, cafes, restaurants, and squares so that you can practice your language skills.
Whether it's ordering food, buying souvenirs, asking for directions, or simply engaging with the public, immersing yourself in the local language is the perfect way to learn. Just be sure to let us know what excursions you'd like to visit and we can work to create a bespoke itinerary for your trip.
