You should stay at the school residence: breakfast everyday, don't have to hike to class (homestays are across town) and 10+ new friends to hang out with. The staff and teachers were super nice. DO NOT USE the in-house travel agency. Our horseback riding guide sexually harassed us, all the horses were emaciated and kept stopping to eat. I'm not complaining but just know that the majority of the students and staff are Dutch.

I had a great time! Learned a lot of Spanish, great teachers who really made me speak Spanish, nice atmosphere, good down town location, inhouse travel agency. Fellow students who stayed at the school residence were very happy , i was happy with my Peruvian family. I think it was good value for money.

I had a great time at Amauta Spanish School in Cusco. Not only is the school one of the best in the area, the city is amazing as well. Because I improved my Spanish a lot and got to learn about the culture of Peru, I have the feeling I got everything out of my trip. It couldn´t have been any better. The classes are of high quality, the teachers are so much fun and I made a lot of new friends. The atmosphere in the school is really friendly and I have welcome the whole time. I will definetely go back to learn more Spanish and to visit my Peruvian friends again!

I studied here for three weeks, two in Cuzco and one week at one of their other locations in Taray. I had a really great time and I can recommend this school to anyone. The classes were good, especially because of the teachers, they were all very nice and skilled. They offered a good mix of grammar, vocabulary and conversation practice. We got some (copied) books but we hardly used them, so that could be improved on. The school's location is great, very close to the city center, and it's just a nice place. They organized some fun activities like salsa classes, cooking classes, music classes and movie nights. There is a free internet cafe, but when I was there (April 2009) the computers were really old, hardly usable. I stayed with a guest family which was a wonderful experience. I had also booked a transfer service from Lima to Cuzco, which was really good. The inhouse travel agency, Dos Manos, is ok. It's very convenient and the service is good, but it's not that cheap for reasonable quality. Made a trip to Lago Titicaca and Machu Picchu with them. The first was perfect, but a few things went wrong with the second (guide didn't show up, got train tickets for the wrong dates). But they handled it well.
