Our host family centre is in the delightful town of San Giovanni and whilst Rome and Florence may teem with tourists and students, little San Giovanni offers a place where students can experience a wealth of culture not found in the souvenir shops.

It is an ideal location for a short term programme where students can understand the Italian way of life and explore the art and culture that makes Italy so rich. The town itself dates from the 14th century and offers a window onto a Tuscan way of life. Located just 30 minutes from Florence by train and 3 hours from Rome, the town offers an ideal base from which to explore this breathtaking region.

Accommodation is with friendly host families in the local area and tuition can also be offered at our partner school right in the centre of this beautiful little town.
