The Spanish Language school in Cuzco offers the following Cultural Workshops with local teachers, which can be booked (for an additional fee) in blocks of separate hours, either during the week or weekend. If several students are interested in the same course, we offer excellent discount options. It's a great opportunity to learn about real traditional Peruvian culture and to complement the student's Spanish Course.
