Culture Language Voyages

L’Alliance New York’s Culture and Language Voyages are international immersion experiences led by native French speakers. Discover the beauty and diversity of locales such as Normandy, Paris, Quebec City, and Bordeaux while strengthening your French speaking skills and traveling alongside fellow Francophiles. From the guided tours of cultural sites to the daily classes at partnering language schools to the group dining outings to the allocated solo exploration time, the Voyages are truly unforgettable experiences. On y va! L’Alliance would love to host you.

We’ve announced our next voyage — join us in Cannes this fall!

A fan favorite of our students, this trip includes morning French classes, full day excursions, and cultural activities to help you improve your language skills and learn how to live à la française!

Testimonials

    I was grateful to have the chance to speak to shopkeepers and other natives in French—and not having them switch to English. As for one specific memorable experience, that would be the night many of us had dinner at a restaurant in Cannes to celebrate the birthday of one of our fellow students. It was a merry and lively evening that was a high point of the trip.

    The biggest pleasure was speaking French with greater confidence, enjoying so many things with new friends, and finally feeling good about the progress I have made with the language.

    Meeting up with fellow students for meals, short shopping trips, museum visits, and the like; the trip offers time to be alone but also spend time with other students, some of whom have become friends once back in the U.S.
