Intensa offers Spanish language instruction in three locations. The main campus is in a quiet suburb, Barrio Escalante, which is about 10 minutes from downtown San José, the capital and cultural center of Costa Rica. This is where our adventure learning program is based.
Intensa also has two other locations that focus more on private lessons and classroom study. The school in Alajuela, which has more of a small town atmosphere, is situated 16 kilometers (10 miles) northwest of San José, not far from the country's major international airport. The school in Escazú is housed in a modern office building about 7 kilometers (4 miles) southwest of San José. Each of our three schools is within easy reach of public transportation.
