Learn Spanish in Seville, traveling around Spain

Learn Spanish in Seville: All of our Spanish courses include a minimum of four hours of complimentary cultural activities in and out of the classroom. In addition we make available a broad program of weekend trips so that you can get to know other parts of Andalusia and Spain.

Spain is a land of contrasts and we would like to help you to experience the richness and variety of this country: mountains and coast, ancient towns, popular fiestas.

Discover other parts of Spain while studying Spanish in Seville. Giralda Center-SH offers a wide range of weekend excursions to Spain’s most famous historical cities such as Granada, Cordoba, Madrid and nearby Portugal and Morocco at a reduced price. All sponsored trips are partly subsidised by the school. It is an opportunity to meet other people and enrich your weekends.

Here are some examples of our weekend trips:

Granada, 230 kms from Seville is a fascinating city to dedicate a weekend visit. It is the world capital of Islamic art. The Alhambra is the best example of Islamic architecture in Spain. It is also the birth place of Spain’s most famous poet Garcia Lorca. The view of The Alhambra palace with the backdrop of the snowy mountains of Sierra Nevada is a breath-taking experience.

Cordoba, 150 kms from Seville Cordoba was founded by the Romans but eventually became the capital of Islamic Spain. Not many know that in the 11th century it was one of the most important capitals in Europe. People of many different cultures and religions - Jews, Muslims and Christians - were living peacefully together, and important philosophers, scientists and artists emerged from here.

Mountain trekking on the “Ruta de los Pueblos Blancos” (route of the White Towns): Ronda and Grazalema. We are proud to lead you through this amazing nature reserve just 100 kms from Seville. Beautifully preserved little white “pueblos” alongside mountains overlooking the coast of Cadiz. An opportunity to taste Spain’s southern cooking and wines as well.

A day on the beach, enjoy the unspoiled beaches of Cadiz and southern Portugal, just one hour and a half from Seville. We leave Seville Saturday morning around 9.00 and get back in the evening. Teachers and students share a day of swimming, relaxing or water sports if you prefer. We recommend Bolonia, Caños de Meca, Conil and Sanlucar on the near coast of Cadiz or the Ihle de Tavira in Portugal.

Weekend in Morocco, if you are in Seville you should not miss visiting northern Africa, just a three hour trip from Seville, by bus and ferry. Once each term, Giralda Center sponsors a long weekend trip to Morocco for low budgets. We visit Tangier, Ashila and the ancient city of Fes.

Get to know Madrid and the Prado Museum, Madrid is just 2 h and 20 mins from Seville by train. You should not miss the opportunity to see other towns full of history in central Spain: Toledo, Avila and Madrid.

San Fermines in Pamplona, Once a year we organize a trip to Pamplona in July, for the famous bull festival, in the north of Spain. An opportunity to compare the culture and gastronomy of Navarra with southern Spain.
