Excursions and Culture
AIFS students at a bullfight
The AIFS cultural calendar is designed to take advantage of local sites, events and festivals. This may include a visit to Salamanca’s Plaza de Toros, bullring, to meet the local bullfighter Miguel Ángel, a visit to a local art museum or joining the crowds to experience the eerie spectacle of the traditional Holy Week festivities.
Trip to Madrid
Most programs in Salamanca begin with a stay in Spain’s capital city, Madrid. Home to world-renowned museums, a 24 hour nightlife, elegant squares and parks, the government and the Spanish Royal family Madrid is a complex mixture of tradition and modernity and never dull. Where other capitals have little to distinguish themselves from other European cities, Madrid’s heart is Spanish through and through.
