Where could you use these words?
Spain
Practise a greeting, ordering at a café and asking for directions before your trip to Spain. This pack teaches a small shared starting vocabulary; regional languages and accents vary.
Languages in Spain →Colombia & Mexico
Take the same greetings, polite requests and everyday questions into a trip to Colombia or Mexico. Words and pronunciation can differ locally; the pack does not replace a regional guide.
Spanish-speaking Caribbean
Preparing for the Dominican Republic or Puerto Rico? Begin with greetings, food and hotel phrases. Caribbean destinations use different languages; check your destination rather than assuming Spanish everywhere.
Dominican Republic travel information →Before you start
Is this Spanish travel course free?
Yes. Read all 28 phrases here without an account. The free interactive pack requires Google sign-in to save your place and favourites. There is no purchase or subscription for this pack.
What can I learn in seven days?
Seven short sessions introduce greetings, courtesy, food and drinks, prices and payments, directions, transport and hotels. Each has four phrases and a meaning check. Follow one session a day or choose the situation you need; this is a starter pack, not a fluency promise.
Can I use it on a one-week or two-week holiday?
Yes. The seven-day outline is preparation, not the length of your trip. During my trip mode lets you search in English or Spanish, save favourite phrases and show a phrase in large text.
Does it teach local Spanish for every country?
The pack uses Vane’s existing Spanish course examples. It does not provide separate dialect versions for Spain, Colombia, Mexico or the Caribbean. Accents, vocabulary and local languages vary.
Can I use the pack offline?
This reading page needs no JavaScript, but opening it still needs a connection. Interactive Study uses sign-in and account sync; offline travel access is not guaranteed. Pronunciation depends on the browser voices available on your device.
