It's your choice

Casa Rosario gives the students much greater flexibility in choosing which activities they want to participate in. One of the main reasons to choose Casa Rosario over other schools is that the directors, Vicente and Samuel, have a profound knowledge and understanding of the history and culture of San Pedro and the surrounding areas. You will have the ability to choose and experience things you would never find in other Spanish schools.

The activity section is divided generally into two sections: excursions and activities unique to Casa Rosario.
