Our Activities

Our students, in addition to learning the language, have an incredible range of activities they can do during the course, in their free time or on weekends. Some of them are part of our programs.

Besides that, we are in São Paulo! A global and absolutely diverse city that connects people and cultures. Sao Paulo is for everyone.
It is modern and trendsetter, with numerous options for leisure, business, and entertainment.
In Brazil, everything happens first in São Paulo.

Recognized for the quality and variety of its services, Sao Paulo is the best place for you to learn Portuguese.

Brigadeiro Class

The most delicious lesson at Idiomas To Go.

Brigadeiro is a traditional Brazilian chocolate treat, that is present in almost all children’s birthday parties and general events. Every Brazilian knows how to make it. A delicious part of our culture.

You will prepare and taste it.

Class at the Farmers’ Market

Farmers’ markets are still common in our country. It’s a privilege to have a farmers’ market a block from us every week.

You’ll learn about food by watching, touching and tasting it, and you’ll experience this very friendly environment. That’s how the farmers’ market class is.

For a unique experience, eat pastel and drink sugarcane juice or coconut water.

Visit Museums

Did you know that Sao Paulo is the largest metropolis in Latin America and the economic and cultural capital of Brazil?

A visit to different museums is an experience that you must have, and it can be included in the program of your classes.

Sao Paulo is an immersion in language and culture.

Beaches

How about spending a day at the beach?

The city of Sao Paulo is just 80km from the coast. You can spend a day, a weekend or as long as you want on beautiful beaches.

The beach is for everyone, but your experience is unique. You can play sports, go hiking, play with your children, go boating, or just relax on the sand and enjoy the landscape, drinking coconut water or caipirinha.

Adventure Tourism and Ecotourism

Adventure and a lot of nature!

If you are a nature lover, you will be amazed by the options of Ecotourism in Sao Paulo. There are kilometers of Atlantic Forest, rivers and waterfalls of clear waters. All these in or near the capital.

Are you an adventure lover? Water rafting, canoeing, zip-lining, biking, hiking and lots of nature.

Arts and Crafts
(Embu das Artes)

Spend a Sunday in a charming place full of crafts to admire and buy.

Just 30km from the capital, prefer to visit Embu das Artes on a Sunday when the handicraft fair happens. Enjoy the gastronomy and the tranquility of walking downtown.

Gastronomy

Have you thought about learning regional cuisine?

In your free time, you can learn how to prepare a typical Brazilian dish taking cooking classes.

In addition to the cultural experience, you still meet people and practice the Portuguese you learned at Idiomas To Go.

Dancing

Brazilians love to dance.

Samba, pagode, forró, frevo, lambada, and many other rhythms.

For those who have fun dancing, learning typical Brazilian dances is a great cultural immersion.

Diving

Sao Paulo has everything! The city is very close to the coast and places of incredible nature.

From the one who never dived to the most experienced diver, you’ll find plenty of diving schools and travel agencies.

Skydiving and ballooning

Have you ever imagined learning Portuguese and on the weekend being able to take a balloon ride? Or, if you prefer something more radical, you can go parachuting.

Yes, this is possible in Boituva, only 120km from Sao Paulo City.

Marcus Huggare

“I took private classes with Idiomas To Go for 7 weeks, during a recent stay in São Paulo. My experience was great from day 1. I had a very knowdedgeable and positive teacher. Further, the topics were fun & interesting, allowing me to develop my Portuguese. After my return, to my homecountry, I continued with lessons via Skype and the experience continued to be great. In fact, I just signed up for new Skype classes.”

Lahoud Habchi

“Great teacher, motivated and engaged, professional team, friendly and welcoming staff.”

Satoko Araki

“The school is very organized and gives great motivation for me to continue studying Portuguese. I didn’t expect to get a certificate after certain number of classes and tests. This was a great surprise! After every class, the teacher writes down what we studied. These “tracking” helps teachers and students a lot.”

Thomas Ristau

“Idiomas To Go is not only teaching a language, they are also teaching about Brazilian culture. The mix of learning language and culture with engaged teachers, together with great organization, modern class rooms and good course materials make this school a great place to learn a new language.”
