Optional Activity Package

The purpose of the Optional Activity Package (OAP) is to provide you with even more activities to enrich your experience overseas. We are able to negotiate excellent prices for these activities, much less expensive than what you could get if you booked on your own. In addition, all bookings will be taken care of for you by your ISV in-country staff, so all you have to do is show up and be ready for some amazing adventures! Each year about 95% of all ISV participants worldwide enjoy the benefits of the Optional Activity Package. Please note that the OAP in each country is offered in addition to the 5 included ISV Activities.

PRICE USD 215.00

Spanish Language Program

Begin your ISV Program in the Dominican Republic by immersing yourself deep within the culture of your host country though a 7 day homestay program with a local host family.

Since the vast majority of ISV participants travelling to your host country will participate in the ISV Spanish Language & Cultural Immersion Program (regardless of their Spanish language skills), ISV assumes your participation and will add the cost of this option to your Program invoice. Any ISV participant who chooses to opt out of the Spanish Language Program (for example, you already speak fluent Spanish) must notify the ISV USA office via the ISV Flight/Options Form. For more details, see the Spanish Language and Cultural Immersion Program offered for Costa Rica, Dominican Republic or Ecuador participants.
