School Trips to France: Study Abroad Program 

Learn a language with our educational trips to France

fr-montpellier(school-01)175.gifThe Eurolingua Institute organises one or two week school trips to France – in Montpellier. The programme includes group language tuition for 15 hours per week, afternoon cultural and leisure activities, a full-day excursion and quality French host family accommodation.

At only 20 minutes from the Mediterranean beaches, your students (between 12 to 20 years old) will discover a fantastic region of France which is sunny for most of the year and Mtp_class01.JPGwhere modernity mixes happily with the historic.

Our France study abroad program provides a great opportunity to enjoy leisure time just as much as time in the classroom.
