What our students said about Trieste

It is a great city. People are very friendly and there are many points of interest. In addition, it is very safe and the prices are acceptable. The most beautiful thing about the city, apart from the people, are the landscapes; the Adriatic Sea is extremely beautiful.

5.0Ana Lilia Mexico

I enjoy Trieste time and time again. I've been there about twice every time since 2018. However, because there are so many cruise ships docking now, the city is quite crowded and noisy during this time.

5.0Elisabeth Austria

You can feel the historical past of the Austrian monarchy (buildings and squares), and at the same time life in the city simply oozes southern flair. I liked the city very much and felt very at home.

5.0ELFRIEDE Austria

Should remain an insider tip, as not yet overcrowded, still "normal" prices for meals, entrance fees etc.; public transport with excellent app for navigation and timetable.

5.0Georgi Germany

Trieste is a very beautiful, liveable city. Colourful and lively. Only the lack of greenery in the city and the large amounts of dog faeces everywhere deducted points.

4.0Ulrike Germany

Very liveable and worth experiencing city, beautiful surroundings, especially as Slovenia, Ljubljana, Muggia, Grotta Gigante... and Venice are not so far away.

5.0Michael Germany

I can't really rate the nightlife and public transport. Trieste is now one of my favourite cities. I was all by myself and I felt so safe.

5.0Bettina Austria

Exciting and relaxed. Very pleasant. Only the food wasn't as great as expected. Probably bad luck with the restaurant selection.

5.0Anna Germany

Central Europe on the Adriatic with coffee house culture - affectionate, personable and metropolitan.

5.0Franz Germany

I was pleasantly surprised. It is a very European city, elegant, clean and easy to get to know.

5.0María Jesús Spain

Most recent student reviews of language schools in Trieste

There is a very pleasant, relaxed atmosphere at the school, the teachers are all extremely helpful and very competent in the lessons. Marina, who organises everything, speaks perfect German and you can turn to her with any questions. The afternoon excursions were great, sometimes to places that you wouldn't necessarily think of as a tourist. We asked for an osmiza in the first week and Marina had already organised a visit for the second week.
The classrooms are pleasant and I particularly appreciated the large table around which everyone sits and has enough space for all the documents. The large table is also very communicative.
