Amazing experience…

I had an amazing experience with Al Fresco English. Everything was absolutely great from start to finish. Garry is a fantastic teacher – friendly, patient, and full of positive energy. He creates a relaxed atmosphere where learning feels natural and fun.
I really enjoyed our time together, had lots of laughs, and at the same time improved our English without even realizing it. Highly recommend Al Fresco English to anyone who wants to improve their English in a fun, engaging, and authentic way and exploring the surroundings of Edinburgh.

Amazing experience! Recommended!

I really enjoyed the experience with English Al Fresco, I’ve just done it in September! Joining its trip has been a great occasion to visit Scotland for the first time. Moreover, the possibility to improve my English with Garry, the native speakers and fellows of experience, it’s an original and fantastic idea, in addition to visiting places, feeling the british everydays life, learning history of Scotland and exploring nature with hiking on the mountains. Everything was pefectly organized and it went very well. The accomodation is really confortable, you can feel like at your home. A special thanks to the leader, Garry! He’s a great! I definitely believe that joining this trip it truly worth!

Wonderful experience in Scotland

I went in Edinburgh with a group in September.

For me, this experience was perfect.

I had a lot of fun and had the opportunity to practice speaking English freely. I found this type of experience very interesting for those who, like me, love to enjoy a holiday, meet new people, visit new places, and also practice and learn English in a fun way.

The program is very varied, a good mix of nature, culture, and fun.

The teachers (five native speakers) were very kind, always attentive to everyone's needs in a careful and empathetic way.

The accommodation was also lovely, cozy, and clean.

So, 5 stars from me!

It was a unique experience

It was a unique experience. Traveling with Gary not only showed me the beauty of Scotland, but also improved my language skills. The group of native speakers made me feel comfortable during the trip. I highly recommend it and will definitely be back.

Scotland trip April 2025

I went on the Scotland trip last week and it was a wonderful experience. Garry and his team had everything planned out that made it very comfortable for the group.
I made new friendships and saw a lot of Scotland. I would definitely book another trip with Garry!
Thank you for everything!

It was the best Short Trip in a group…

It was the best Short Trip in a group which I have done since years! There was nothing I would have wanted to have differently or where I say that was not good, etc. Everything was wonderfully coordinated all around, all needs were met. From hiking, to city trips, buying souvenirs, food and wonderful people. The Workawayers Where also like meeting friends. I find this combination of everything just wonderful for women like me, for example, who travel alone, want to see new places or countries, but don't want classic package tours in any hotel. Travelling in a small group gave me the feeling of security. The hostel was also quite wonderful, with all the decorations.

I'll see you on one of your next trips!

Es war der beste Kurztrip in einer Gruppe, den ich seit Jahren gemacht habe! Es gab nichts, was ich gerne anders gehabt hätte oder wo ich sage, das war nicht gut, etc. Alles war rundum wunderbar aufeinander abgestimmt, es wurde auf alle Bedürfnisse eingegangen. Vom Wandern, über Städtetrips, den Kauf von Souvenirs, Lebensmitteln und wunderbaren Menschen. Die Workawayer Wo treffen wir uns auch gerne mit Freunden. Ich finde diese Kombination aus allem einfach wunderbar für Frauen wie mich, die zum Beispiel alleine reisen, neue Orte oder Länder sehen wollen, aber keine klassischen Pauschalreisen in irgendeinem Hotel wollen. In einer kleinen Gruppe zu reisen, gab mir ein Gefühl der Sicherheit. Das Hostel war auch ganz wunderbar, mit all der Dekoration. Wir sehen uns auf einer eurer nächsten Reisen!

I highly recommend it

I highly recommend it! You can come together with people from different cultures and spend an unforgettable 4 days anywhere in the world. Garry and his team are extremely professional. During the day, you can enjoy exploring the surroundings, and in the evenings, play fun games, stay in traditional homes, and learn a lot about the local culture. I was with the team in Madeira and had a great time. I will definitely meet up with this group in other cities as well:)

I recently spent time in Madeira…

I recently spent time in Madeira improving my English, and it was an amazing experience! Instead of formal lessons, we constantly communicated with a native speaker while exploring beautiful places around the island. It was a perfect combination of practice and adventure, making it fun and easy to learn. I highly recommend this approach for anyone looking to improve their English in a relaxed and inspiring environment!
