Why Learn Spanish in lima
There are many places in the world to study Spanish, but none so unique, culturally alive and open as Lima, the capital of Perú.
Once known as “the gastronomic paradise of South America”
The initial impression of many visitors is that Lima is a gastronomic and cosmopolitans South American city: gastronomy for all tastes and senses, surely Lima will be a destination that will make your shovel fall in love.
However, this is Perú, South America, a country with its own distinct cultural identity. Lima is a city of tastes and culture, each with their own special charm.
History, Huayno, Food, Architecture
There’s the contemporary dynamic culture of Downtown Lima, where Gastronomy, Colors, Sounds and many Culture collide on the streets with the sole purpose that you fully enjoy
There’s Miraflores, an exclusive neighborhood of cobblestone streets and antique buildings. There you’ll find many restaurants bursting with intense and Huayno dancers and hear the classic sounds of the dance spilling onto the streets.
The gorgeous and sophisticated Miraflores is defined by its views, theatres, mixed architecture, and sprawling green parks. But throughout Lima’ 40+ barrios, there is one thing that ties the city together: the open, friendly, endlessly giving spirit of the people of Perú.

Originally in Downtown LIMA
For many years, Vamos Spanish Academy operated out of a beautiful former arts institute building in Downtown Lima, a short walk from the commercial district in Lima.
But over the years, Vamos has grown, with ever more students to serve and instructors to teach them. Inevitably, the day came where we knew we had outgrown our home and had to find a new one.
Miraflores is one of the most beautiful places in Lima and is renowned for its variety of chic restaurants and shopping destinations. It was a wonderful home for us and an even better place for our students to put their hard-earned Spanish skills to the test while exploring the streets of our city.
Destinations in Miraflores
But fortunately, that didn’t mean leaving Lima. In fact, the new Vamos Spanish Academy has located only a half-hour walk—less than 3 kilometers—from our original location. Today you can find us centrally located in the elegant Miraflores neighborhood.
You will get to experience the best of both worlds: a good mix of ocean calm and energetic city life. We are close to many popular touristic attractions in walking distance, such as the popular shopping street, the ocean, many cultural centers and museums, and much more.
