Spanish in Rosario is more than just a language school - it’s a complete cultural experience.
Located in downtown, they offer both structured classes as well as unconventional approaches that reach far beyond the walls of the traditional classroom, combining tourism and learning into one.
With a staff of experienced postgraduates, you will soak up the language in a quiet setting, filled with creativity and outside thinking.
Taking that knowledge, you will step outside and allow the streets of Rosario to become your classroom!

LA CASONA DE DON JAIME I - II & SUITES
When visiting Rosario stay at one of these two backpacker friendly hostels. La Casona de Don Jaime I is located close to downtown and within walking distance from the main attractions. They have private rooms or dorms, and all the facilities to make your stay comfortable.
La Casona de Don Jaime II & Suites is their other cool place to enjoy being in Rosario. They offer private rooms and dorms with shared bathrooms in this renovated XX century house, revamped to offer comfort and fun to all guests. They recently inaugurated a cool small bar and a 2nd floor with 10 ensuite stylish private rooms.
Both hostels are downtown and close to everything. The difference between the two is that La Casona de Don Jaime I has Roots Bar, and therefore it’s a little bit noisier and full of people during weekends. La Casona de Don Jaime II & Suites is quieter and has bigger rooms, some with private bathrooms and a bigger yard with a climbing wall. Still, both Casonas follow a single concept: they want to offer you a great place to stay with lots of things to keep you entertained and a savvy staff to be there for you.
Take your pick from 10% off your stay at check in, 5th night for free or welcoming drink!

PUERTO IGUAZU
Puerto Iguazú serves as a resting spot for visitors to the world famous Iguazu Falls. Close by, you can visit the Hito Tres Fronteras mirador, a place where the rivers intersect and form a natural border with neighbouring Brazil and Paraguay. The bird shelter Guira Oga (Home of the Birds, in the Guaraní language) is a rehabilitation centre where thousands of local animal species are treated and reintroduced into their natural habitat.:: Iguazu National Park:Declared a Natural World Heritage Site by UNESCO, it is one of the most impressive natural attractions in Argentina. The most spectacular waterfall is Garganta del Diablo (Devil’s Throat). There are boat trips to the base of the falls and many activities to explore the surrounding jungle, like 4x4 expeditions, rafting, kayaking, horse riding, canopy, visits to traditional villages, rappelling and trekking.:: Jesuit Missions: Closer to Misiones’ capital city, Posadas, (250 km from Iguazú), lies the site of the largest and best preserved mission ruins in the region, San Ignacio Miní. Settled within the dense vegetation, this site shows all the interesting aspects of the Jesuits’ quest to convert the Guaraní natives to Catholics.:: Wanda Mines: Guided tours and gem shopping can be found in these open cast quartz and amethyst mines, situated 40 km from Puerto Iguazú.
