Language Travel & Adventure offers two and five week, two, three and six month options.

Two Week: Based at Playa Colorada (the red beach). Intensive Spanish (4 hours per day) at either beginner or advanced levels. Activities (included in the price of the program) include a 3 day leisurely Sea Kayak to nearby sun drenched islands (Spanish classes on the beach) and Dolphin encounter. There is an introduction to rock climbing and waterfall rappelling. We investigate local Latino culture including Salsa and Merengue dancing.

Five Week: Based from Playa Colorada. The two week program plus… two expeditions to visit the real and the remote Venezuela. Spanish each day continues even while on expedition. One week traveling to Caripe (Guachero Cave – one of the largest in the world, coffee plantations, local markets and a mountain camp). The next 10-12 days is a kayaking trip into the remote Orinoco Delta. Exploring the waterways and jungles where there is a amazing abundance of wildlife and flora. Try fishing for pirahas', gathering foods and indeed traveling and living as the Waraos have done for over 20,000 years.

Two Months: The first 5 weeks we program and Spanish classes continue at Playa Colorada where you enjoy some Spanish history and culture classes with visits to historical sites in Barcelona and Cumana. There is also some Beach volley ball or football tournaments with locals, Cooking classes, and Snorkeling. Then it’s a two week expedition including a week Jeep Safari to the Mystical highlands of Venezuela, visiting various indigenous settlements, and finally a week hiking to the top of Roriama (the lost world). Spanish classes are for first week only.

Three months: The first two months of Spanish and expeditions plus this month we dedicate to working on a community project. Working with local people we try to give something back to our host in this under developed country. Spanish classes in the morning, volunteer project in the afternoon.

Six months: (Based in Merida) The first 3 months program plus work experience and an expedition to Angel Falls. One of the best ways to practice your Spanish is to get out there and work with the locals (see work experience). You can choose two programs for 4 weeks each e.g. teaching English, National Park Programs, farm working, zoo helper, marine biology, tour guiding, adventure sports training, journalism, tourism, bar, restaurant and hotel management and many more. You will live with a host family or in a camp or posada. The final month is we spend one week walking to Canaima from la Paragua stopping at isolated villages along the way and sleeping in the wilderness. Second week in the Village of Canaima ( Spanish classes), and an optional day trip to see the Angel Falls, the world highest water fall. You finish with a week back in Playa Colorada with relaxing time to work on your sun, polish of your Spanish skills, and say farewell to your new lifetime friends.
