Edelweiss Tours: Edelweiss Tours, based in Oregon, organises German language tours in Switzerland for high school and college students. Our tours are different because we have placed our students, along with their adult supervision, in their very own apartments for an entire week.
Students will be living with the locals of the country and not in a hotel geared for tourists. This gives the students a better feel of how the locals live and more opportunities to use their German language skills in a real world setting including in scenarios such as grocery shopping, ordering food at a restaurant, purchasing train tickets, asking for directions, etc.
