Learn Spanish in Buenos Aires, Argentina:

Buenos Aires is the most European of all Latin American cities. With its wide boulevards, leafy parks, grand buildings and varied culture and nightlife, the city is reminiscent of Paris or Barcelona. The Porteños (‘people of the port'), as the residents of Buenos Aires are called, seem more European to, but this is hardly surprising considering that most are descended from European, predominately Italian, immigrants who settled here in the 19th century. With them came a culture and a cuisine that still flavours the city and can be enjoyed in countless art galleries, theatres and museums, as well as fine restaurants. The city has also spawned its own art forms, notably the tango, for which Buenos Aires is famous.

Buenos Aires is the third largest city in South America and comprises 47 barrios (neighbourhoods) in which nearly three million people live. Situated in the east of Argentina beside the Rio de la Plata and surrounded by seemingly never ending flat land known as the Pampas, the vast sprawling conurbation is a true 24 hour city. Enroll on our Spanish Courses in Buenos Aires, Argentina and you will find there is always something going on to occupy the senses.

For the visitor from abroad, there has never been a better time to learn Spanish in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Buenos Aires has a mild climate and is a year-round destination, although the city can get very hot and humid during the summer months from December to February.
