Montpellier is located in France's Languedoc-Roussillon region, which is well known for its gorgeous Mediterranean beaches and its remarkable wine. Our weekly field trips take advantage of our setting and offer trips to the nearby beach (also accessible on your own via public transportation) and local winemakers (which you can sample at lunch in the cafeteria daily or at the local farmer's market as well). Whether you decide to travel each weekend or stay in Montpellier, there are tons of things to do to ensure you have an amazing time abroad this summer!
The Glories of France program has been suspended.
For over 38 years, UNO’s Glories of France program has allowed over 1,200 students to call the south of France home for a month each summer.
