Custom Faculty-Led Education Study Abroad Programs

"The hotels chosen, city guides and tours, visits to museums, choice of restaurants, and other cultural activities have all represented meaningful, oftentimes life-changing experiences for all, giving our students direct exposure to some of the realities and cultural richness Spain has been famous for."

"Traveling overseas is stressful. Particularly if you are leading a group of young students who are full of expectations. Without the efficiency and knowledgeable tour guides provided by Spanish Studies Abroad, my experience as a program leader would not have been as memorable as it was. I cherished every minute."

"I could not speak more highly of their professionalism and excellent customer service. They are problem solvers and pay attention to every detail on our schedule so our students can have the best cultural and academic experience possible, besides being available 24/7. Every year every participant on the program raves about the well-rounded and knowledgeable tour guides, the overnight trip accommodations and the excellent transit to the sites visited. Because of their highly-organized programs and travel offerings, other UMD departments have started to partner with Spanish Studies Abroad. "

Having taken students to Costa Rica and Spain for 30 years, I'm an extremely demanding trip planner looking for perfection. It has been a pleasure to work with the owners of Spanish Studies Abroad. They certainly do and will do whatever it takes to please customers and for a very good and reasonable price. I will continue using this company for all my educational and personal excursions and I highly recommend it.

"I have worked with Spanish Studies Abroad for over 10 years and I can attest to the quality of the programs that this organization has put together for the groups that I have led during this time period. Time and time again, the staff at Spanish Studies Abroad designed high quality programs that were executed with consummate professionalism. Words simply cannot express just how much I appreciate Spanish Studies Abroad for being such a trustworthy organization and for its uncompromising commitment to excellence. It goes without saying that I look forward to working with Spanish Studies Abroad for many more years!"
