MONTREUX SWITZERLAND for teenagers aged 13-17
"FRENCH IMMERSION VACATION"
_______________________________________________________
Situated on the banks of Lake Geneva, in the French-speaking part of Switzerland, Montreux enjoys a mild and pleasant microclimate, which gives it a Mediterranean feel and has earned it the nickname “Pearl of the Swiss Riviera”.
Along the quays lined with exotic trees, the panorama is absolutely breathtaking. Between the lake and mountains, the region around Lake Geneva offers an exceptional range of sports and cultural activities. Montreux hosts events on an international scale, including the Montreux Jazz Festival in summer or the Christmas Market in winter, which have contributed to the reputation of this beautiful tourist resort for many years.
Take a language course for teenagers in Montreux and seize this unique opportunity to learn French in one of the most beautiful regions of Switzerland. Students from throughout the world, as much as from other linguistic regions of Switzerland, take advantage of this exceptional setting each year to enjoy a delicious cocktail of sport, fun, French and friendship.
