Amazing experience

My son and his group bumped into Boris Johnson during a trip to the museum activity. What are the chances? They even had a conversation with him. Great opportunity to broaden the horizons through education and cultural immersion.

Our 15 year old son attended the Abbey Road St Laurent program last summer and we highly recommend it. He stayed with a French host who was warm and welcoming, and made him feel at home. Every day she provided a home cooked dinner and conversation, which helped him to improve his French. The morning classes were well planned and engaging. Our son especially enjoyed the cultural activities that Carla organized. On top of exploring Nice, they went to Monaco, San Remo and Cannes, discovering many charming places in the area. He had a wonderful time, made fantastic friends, his French improved and made lasting memories. This program offers a great balance between learning French, being immerse in the culture of the country, having a lot of fun, and growing as a person. Again, we highly recommend it!

Great social development experience

My 16 year old daughter had a very good time socially with her peers —this was the “growing edge” for her on this trip. She really enjoyed all the outings and teaching of the guides, history being her favorite subject. A serious regret was missing the tour of both the Palace and the Gardens of Versailles due to poor organization and timing with the tickets. Also the whole group completely missed the train to Cologne one day and had to sit on the ground in the Paris train station waiting for the next train for five hours —and therefore missed a half day of touring in Cologne. These were significant disappointments.
