This is an unforgettable adventure where you'll immerse yourself in the Spanish language and Mexican culture... guided by Andrea La Mexicana herself! She will take you to Guanajuato, the capital of the State where she was born, for a week full of laughter, connection, learning, and unforgettable moments.

Each day is designed around real-life immersion. While there are some Spanish sessions to guide and support your learning, most of the experience happens naturally through everyday activities.

You’ll practice Spanish while exploring the city, sharing meals, participating in cultural experiences, and interacting with locals — all in a relaxed, supportive environment.

This trip is about living the language, not sitting in a classroom. It’s the perfect balance between guidance, culture, and meaningful real-world practice.

It’s an immersion experience that blends both language and culture — with a strong focus on real-life use of Spanish.

There will be a limited number of structured Spanish sessions (up to three, held in the mornings) to support your learning. However, this is not a traditional classroom-based course.

Most of your Spanish practice happens naturally throughout the day — while exploring the city, visiting markets and museums, sharing meals, and experiencing daily life in Mexico.

The focus of the trip is living the language, not sitting in a classroom.

All levels are welcome, but having some familiarity with the language (especially listening comprehension) will help you get the most out of the experience. Since most activities take place in real-life settings, a minimum level of understanding is important to fully participate and feel comfortable.

If you’re a beginner, you’re still welcome to join as long as you’re open, curious, and ready to challenge yourself in an immersive environment. If you’re at a basic or intermediate level, you’ll likely get even more out of the trip.

More than anything, what you need is an open mind, flexibility, and a willingness to learn by living the language.

This trip is designed for adults 18 and older. There’s no upper age limit, just keep in mind that we’ll be walking through the city and doing light to moderate physical activity most days.

You do not need to be fluent in Spanish to join this Immersion Trip.

However, this experience is best for participants who already have a upper-begginer level of understanding, especially when it comes to listening comprehension. Since most of the trip happens in a Spanish-speaking environment, being able to follow conversations and instructions will help you feel more comfortable and fully enjoy the experience.

The goal is not perfection, it’s participation, confidence, and growth.

Yes, as long as you are 18 or older and feel excited to explore, walk, and engage with the culture and language. We welcome adults of all ages.

Yes! You can bring a companion. Ideally, they would join us for the cultural outings and tours, but if they prefer not to, please email us at hola@andrealamexicana.com so we can accommodate them as best as possible.

Most of our activities involve walking at a relaxed pace. Guanajuato is a very walkable city, but there are hills, stairs, and uneven sidewalks in many areas.

If you have limited mobility or need to rest often, we recommend bringing comfortable walking shoes and being prepared for some physical activity. We’ll always try to accommodate individual needs, and you’re free to skip any activity if needed.

Guanajuato is a beautiful and historic city, but it’s important to know that it was not designed with accessibility in mind. The city is known for its narrow streets, cobblestone roads, tunnels, stairs, and frequent ups and downs.

While there are some flatter areas and accessible spaces, many parts of the city are not wheelchair-friendly. Most of our activities take place in the central area, where walking is the main way to get around, and some museums, restaurants, and public spaces may have steps or uneven surfaces.

We care deeply about creating an inclusive and supportive experience, and we will always do our best to assist and adapt whenever possible. That said, we strongly encourage anyone with accessibility needs to reach out to us before joining (hola@andrealamexicana.com), so we can have an honest conversation and help determine whether this trip would be a good fit.

However, if you require a fully wheelchair-adapted room (with specific features like grab bars in the bathroom, wider doors, etc.), please contact us directly so we can check availability and request it in advance.
