Santiago ratings & reviews
What our students said about Santiago
Santiago is strategically located very well: you can be either by the sea or in the Andes in 1.5/2 hours. There are lots of great parks and free museums. Personally, I had no problems regarding security. Of course I had few valuables with me. As a woman, I didn't feel any more unsafe than in Germany.
As a traveller, you always have to be mindful and but if you follow basic rules such as not going out at night by yourself in certain areas and keep your phone in your purse, you are good to go. Also, this applies to every place in Central/South America
There’s lots to do and go to. The public transport system is outstanding, and cheap. It’s easy to find your way around as the streets are well signposted, and the place is built on a rectangular grid. Google maps helps too!
With a healthy dose of caution as you move through less safe neighborhoods, you can quickly feel at home in Santiago. Providencia in particular is a showcase district, with the Barrio Italia as a wonderful nightlife area.
Very lively, the bank holiday is a special highlight, impressive how the Chileans celebrate, good public transport, many excursion possibilities, caution is advised, do not wear important personal things visibly.
Santiago is a nice city with a lot of things to do. The smog was surprising and obscured the amazing views some of the days. After being in Peru, I found the people of Santiago not very friendly.
I felt safe during my stay. There were lots of interesting things to see in the city. The public transportation system is super efficient.
I liked it! I would visit again in the spring or fall as summer is too hot for me. And I'd like to see the river with more water in it.
A large, modern city with many beautiful buildings. I liked it but it was not for me « love at first sight » as Buenos Aires was.
It's a little harder for non-Spanish speakers when you first arrive. But once you know places, it becomes a very nice city.

Loved José as a teacher. I appreciated that we didn't break into groups or pairs and work with each other but rather that he taught us the whole time. He was clear and fun. I learned a lot about the rules behind the grammar and finally understood certain concepts that I had struggled with.
Wonderful experience!

The lessons are a lot of fun as the teachers teach with a lot of passion. As early as the second day, you feel a pleasant sense of familiarity. I would also definitely recommend staying with a host family, as you will notice immense progress in your Spanish in a very short time.
The perfect start to a trip to South America!

Q&A - Questions about Spanish courses and schools in Santiago
Are the classes face-to-face or can a private teacher come to our offices?
I am looking to take a week of Spanish while in Santiago and I would like it to be conversational. I am interested in a small group with 2-4 people or a private instructor.
