School
GLS (German Language School), known as the best in Germany and represented in Southeast Europe by the Verbalists Language Network, organizes the Munich Young & Fun summer camp. With over 40 years of experience, the school has received numerous awards and recognitions. Language Travel Magazine named it the best school in Germany three times – in 2008, 2010, and 2012. It has been accredited by the Berlin Senate, the Swedish Ministry of Education, and international associations such as ALTO, EAQUALS, and IALC.
GLS is the only language school in Germany with a prestigious 9,000 square-meter campus, which includes luxurious accommodation, classrooms, a restaurant, and a luxury hotel.
For this program, the school utilizes the learning center in the village of Josefstal.
Program
After taking a placement test, participants are grouped into international classes with a maximum of 12 students. Groups are formed based on language proficiency and age, with options from beginners to advanced levels. With expert teachers using age-appropriate teaching methods, every participant will have the opportunity to make significant progress. 20 hours of instruction are provided weekly in the mornings, leaving the rest of the day for activities and excursions.
During their stay at the camp, children are under the 24/7 supervision of experienced and skilled staff from the GLS Language School.
One noteworthy aspect is that camp participants come from over 40 countries, and they get to interact with local German children who are also vacationing with their families. This presents a valuable opportunity for communication with native German speakers.
Activities
A diverse range of activities provides entertainment and encourages conversation among participants and local German children. Afternoons are filled with badminton, volleyball, arts and crafts, and sports competitions, while evenings are dedicated to barbecues, campfires, video projections, game nights, or disco evenings.
Furthermore, there are one half-day and one full-day excursion each week, offering a great chance to visit nearby Schliersee Lake and get acquainted with Munich. As the capital of Bavaria, Munich is known for its rich German history, tradition, and culture.
Throughout all activities and excursions, children are supervised by the GLS school staff.
Accommodation
Joseftal Village is a traditional Bavarian village located just 50 km south of Munich, in a peaceful and idyllic Alpine setting. German children who spend part of their summer vacation socialize with GLS students in the camp, offering an excellent opportunity for our youngest Verbalists to meet native speakers and communicate with them.
The learning center offers a variety of amenities such as a fireplace, table tennis and billiards room, volleyball court, barbecue area, and TV viewing rooms, ensuring that participants have a great time.
Children stay in triple and quadruple rooms with shared bathrooms. All three daily meals are served in the camp’s restaurant.
The camp has a capacity of only 70 beds, so early enrollment is recommended.
Program Pricing and Dates
The camp runs from June 30 to August 4, with arrivals and departures on Sundays during this period.
⚠️ There is an option to learn English during the camp, with this program running from July 21 to August 4 at the same prices shown in the table below.

The Unaccompanied Minor (UM) service: For children aged up to 12 years, most airlines require the mandatory Unaccompanied Minor Service, while children aged 13 and 14 can travel alone or have an escort during their stay at the airport (according to parental preference). This service differs from airport transfers (transport between the airport and accommodation) and involves airport staff and GLS school representatives taking responsibility for your child at the airport. Airlines usually charge from €45 to €50 per flight, and GLS school charges €100, so you should budget about €190 for UM service if your child is under 13 years old at the time of departure.
