Founded in 1992 and in affiliation with the World’s Best Language School, which has schools in Italy, New Zealand, and Venezuela, the Adventure Travel Program in Cartagena is a unique combination of language learning and scuba diving. Students work independently or in groups up to 10 to to study Spanish and learn the Colombian way of life while simultaneously discovering the mysteries of the sea in afternoon scuba diving lessons. Its one week course provides 15 hours of Spanish, 3 scuba lessons, and either 5 hours of cultural activities or 5 hours of salsa/merengue dance lessons ($300). The two week course provides 30 hours of Spanish, a full PADI-certified open water course, and 10 hours of cultural or dance lessons ($710). General or intensive Spanish, Spanish and dancing, as well as Spanish and volunteering programs are available as well. Spanish lessons take place at the school, just five minutes from the main entrance to the old city, in the mornings, and other activities are in the afternoons. Students have the option to live with a family, at the school, in an apartment or hotel, or find their own accommodations.
