Dragons Student Travel & Summer Abroad Programs in Central & South America

In Latin America, Dragons has built a number of programs that appeal to a broad range of interests and expose a side of the region not often seen by the average traveler. Whether joining us on a language immersion program in the Guatemalan Highlands, a service learning and indigenous cultures-focused program in Peru, an environmental studies course in Brazil, or a program that surveys the extraordinary ecological and cultural diversity of the Andes and Amazon, all of our Latin America journeys offer profound learning opportunities set against a vibrant and complex backdrop.

On a Dragons Latin America program, expect to hone your Spanish language skills; dive into current issues such as immigration and trade; explore topics related to indigenous movements, conquest, revolution, and social justice; get your hands dirty in an environmental service project; and participate in the uncommon beauty, diversity and warmth of life within the jungles and mountains that form the map’s edge.
