Alandis made our high schoolers' trip to Spain seamless! The staff at Alandis is absolutely wonderful. We, as teachers in the US, exchanged many emails for many months with Laura. She always responded with great detail, having checked into all of our questions and concerns thoroughly. Rocío, our trip leader took care of the things on the ground with local guides, and Michelle and Ramon were so welcoming and generous. We would absolutely plan a trip with them again.
I worked with Alandis Travel, an academic travel company
that put together an intensive itinerary
custom-tailored to my quirky interests. I couldn't have been happier. See trip review
Alandis Travel has been a stellar partner in organizing our exchange program with a school in
Seville. The staff is dedicated to creating a rich experience for our students and provides us
with ongoing support throughout our entire stay. Due largely to the efforts of Alandis Travel, this exchange program has become very popular among our students, and the campus in Seville is considered an extension of our campus in the U.S., focusing on experiential learning and language immersion.
Alandis Travel is a sheer joy to work with and treated us like family! Their professional dedication ensured the WESIPS Conferences have been successful since 2015. We hope to keep working with Alandis Travel for many years to come! Working with Eugenia Lopez, Francisco Cuenca, and Juanma on the 2024 WESIPS Conference was a true pleasure. In sum, Alandis Travel is a trustworthy organization and we hope to keep working with Alandis for many years to come!
