What students and teachers say

I would recommend the program to other students, because I feel like it is a great opportunity to find yourself. You discover more about yourself and interact with other people from different countries. It really sets out what you actually want to do in the future. I recommend it 100%, it is a lovely program.

BassieStudent, IS Havana, Cuba.

It's one thing to be able to learn about different cultures, different perspectives from textbooks and videos, but actually being able to visit the places is particularly important - understanding the real life context of what it is that students are exploring.

KirstyTeacher, Codrington IS, Barbados.

I would most definitely recommend attending Lisbon Adventure. It's a lot of fun, you meet new people, and make new friends. The best part? You also get to surf!
