Study Spanish in a safe environment
Although there are never any 100% guarantees, Tlaquepaque and Guadalajara as a whole are very safe and pleasant environments in which to live and study Spanish.
Incidents of crime amongst our students and staff are extremely rare and the extensive public transport system is clean, safe and inexpensive.
Something that contributes greatly to the low crime-rate is the large, reassuring presence of tourist police officers (shown above). These special forces tour the streets day and night on bicycle and are always on hand to give advice to visitors should they need it.
"The location is superb! - Tlaquepaque is a very non-threatening place to a foreigner and its proximity to the city makes it ideal. You're doing a great job!"

The town center streets have cctv surveillance cameras which help maintain law and order in the city.
Study Spanish safely here at GLC.
However, please don't take our word for it. Go to our student comments page and you can contact ex-students of GLC who will give you their own opinion about safety here in Tlaquepaque and Guadalajara as well as information on any other aspect of studying Spanish here of course.
"The school is located in a quaint neighborhood only minutes away from the heart of downtown Guadalajara. I would definitely return to take classes again and would definitely recommend the school to anyone from beginners to advanced levels of Spanish"
