High School Study Abroad in Lagos, Portugal

What better way to spend your summer vacation than by exploring Europe’s spectacular Iberian Peninsula? Spain and Portugal are two of this year’s trendiest travel destinations, and with good reason! Let Portugal’s vibrant culture and eclectic architecture wow you as you stroll the hillside neighborhood of Alfama in Lisbon. If you listen carefully, you’ll even hear the sounds of traditional fado music being sung as you explore the hidden alleyways and hip boutiques. Take a day trip to the estate town of Sintra, where you’ll visit two hilltop castles with views that extend all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. Soak up the sun and sand at Lagos’ world-class beaches as we kayak through hidden grottoes, snorkel in crystal-clear waters, and watch the sunset at the End of the World!

Cosmopolitan cities, beautiful beaches, quaint medieval towns, and exciting nightlife; this trip for high schoolers across Spain and Portugal has it all! Grab your passport and sense of adventure and tour large, metropolitan cities and small, off-the-beaten-path villages and beachside towns. Immerse yourself in the wonder of Spain’s artistic masterpieces and sample some tapas or maybe a pastéis de nata while enjoying thrilling canyoning, kayaking, and surfing. Excellent leaders are responsible for small groups of teens, following an expertly planned itinerary that allows flexibility and spontaneity. Please note that, on some dates, a limited number of participants depart on day 17, and new participants may join as the group continues to Portugal.
