Caitlin WelshUnited States · November 2026

Such a fun and interactive experience!

My study abroad experience with AIFS was absolutely amazing and the program I chose was extremely fun and interesting. I really enjoyed that AIFS offers Study + Travel programs because before this trip I had never been out of the country before. I think that the museum excursions, walking tours, film viewings, and other excursions were well thought out and extremely relevant to what we were learning in class. I enjoyed having a more hands-on, real world learning experience as opposed to just a formal lecture.

It was the best experience I could have asked for!

I absolutely loved studying abroad with AIFs. Our tour manager Edu was the greatest- he was so personable and ensured that we always felt comfortable talking to him or reaching out if something was wrong. He was always with us and made our experience more personal. As for the program, I was so grateful to travel to three countries AND for our locations to always be in amazing spots of the city! Everywhere we stayed was beautiful. I loved all of our excursions as well! Overall a really really great trip.
