“My father once told me that the two things that you can invest in that no one can ever take away from you are travel and education. This fantastic immersion week combines both. It is really intensive, but somehow they made it very enjoyable. It is a luxury experience and still definitely a vacation.”
Jordan explicitly frames the experience as combining travel and education—two irreplaceable investments that nobody can take away—while maintaining vacation enjoyment.

“I felt my Spanish improve so much more over the week than I’d thought possible. The program also included so many incredible cultural activities in Mexico City – a chef’s table dinner at Pujol, a trip to Casa Azul, a curated tour of the Museo Nacional de Antropologia, an evening lecture from a well-known political philosopher and the staff arranged a trip to the Teotihuacan pyramids.”

“Mexico City is beautiful, the people were friendly, and the flowers and gardens in our hotel and the surrounding areas were gorgeous! The excursions were great as well. My favorite was our trip to La Casa Azul – Frida Kahlo’s house. And one evening we had dinner at Pujol (the number one restaurant in North America!)”

“Our class was during Día de Muertos and we were treated to an art historian’s explanation of the holiday, professional face painters, and a field trip to a cemetery to truly experience the day. We also dined at the chef’s table at Pujol, had an after hours tour at the Anthropology Museum.”
