fish How would you visit flight schools from abroad ?

The thing is, I live far enough for flights to EU to be expensive, so how do I 'visit' flight schools (as is common sense and is advised by basically everyone) that I am interested in / I like their pricing / heard they're good ?
How would you go about it ? Fly for 2-3 days to country X, visit several schools in a not too large of a radius (half a day's train ride max, i would say, because you also want to get back) go back, review intel, go again to country Y same strat ?

Personally I think its a waste of time and money, both resources are a priority for the PPL itself. So, take a calculated risk, rely on online people that have been to the specific school, reviews and email conversations, and come in on blind ? is that the new millennia way ?
