Valencia

Valencia is Spain's third largest city but feels comfortably small. Some of the country's most famous beaches are nearby and the nightlife is one of the best in Spain. The America's Cup sailing event and the Formula 1 activities have added a whole new dimension to the harbour where you now find a refined range of restaurants, bars and nighclubs.

If your budget is smaller or you simply wish to enjoy the more traditional Spanish life, then don't worry, the barrio del Carmen is just around the corner from the school where you can find a great collection of (tapas) bars and restaurants for every budget.

The city is well over 2000 years old and a sense of history drips from every corner. A large student community ensures that the city has not turned into a museum and provides a very lively and pleasant environment.

Valencia is a city with a lot of energy and it has undertaken a whole range of spectacular developments such as the City of Arts and Sciences by the hand of the famous architect Santiago Calatrava.

We're confident that you too will have an amazing time discovering Valencia, Spain's best kept secret.
