Transportation
To and from classes:
- If you do a homestay, we will try to arrange your homestay within walking distance of the school when possible. When that isn´t possible, we will help you connect with the bus route or taxi pick-up.
- If you do the shared home option, transportation is provided.
- If you stay in one of the local hotels, you can easily get taxi service or the hotel can help you find the nearest bus route. You can aslo rent a car thru most of the local hotels.
Airport pick-up.
The school can pick you up at the airport for a cost of US$30. Just ask and we will arrange this for you.
Some of our students are interested in taking tours and seeing the sights. For such students, Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays are the days for tours and they are offered in the afternoons. The costs are very reasonable since the school does not make any profits from the activities. There is no maximum quota to fill. The school takes tours even if there is one person.
