Alma –
Booking a language course in Italy has never been easier. The Studiainitalia team communicated clearly and efficiently throughout the entire process. I was also pleasantly surprised to find that the course I took in Tropea was not only excellent but came at a great price, definitely a bonus!
Maria Fernandez –
Fantastic experience with Stuidainitalia. Tropea is an ideal summer destination. The school is fantastic, the groups are small and the range of excursions is good. I would recommend staying at least two weeks to get the most out of the Italian course. And as usual, the advice and attention of the Studiainitalia team was perfect.
James –
