About me
At Vamonos we do two things extremely well: we run safe and unique cultural immersion tours to multiple destinations; secondly, we intentionally create meaningful interactions with local people daily. We believe educational travel is enhanced with community outreach and service opportunities. These experiences are often life-changing.
Puerto Rico has been our main destination for the past 18 years. Our exclusive insider's perspective makes us know the island better than any other company in the business. Our founders have more than 32 years of combined experience leading student-centered immersion tours. They are passionate proponents of the “total immersion” approach to teaching culture and second language "outside the box."
Cuba is our second destination. Before former President Obama opened travel business to Cuba, we were already licensed by the Department of Treasury to conduct legal people to people tours to the once forbidden island. Meeting locals, absorbing the uniqueness of every experience, and immersing travelers in Cuba's society and nature are incomparable lifetime experiences.
We have recently added some exciting destinations while maintaining the high quality of service and expertise as with our top two destinations: Costa Rica, French Martinique, Quebec, San Antonio Mexican Heritage, and Spain!
We offer schools and tour operators a wide range of cultural, Spanish, french, service-learning, science, and creative immersion expeditions.
No one matches our vast experience in classrooms, our interaction with students, and our safety standards. We eat where locals eat, stay where locals stay, and most certainly brake for "guarapo" (sugar cane juice) when possible!
