Shakespeare & his World - Plays & Sites in Stratford & London
- An exceptional theatrical experience: five Shakespeare plays, visits to related sites, talks and discussions.
- At Stratford with the Royal Shakespeare Company: King John, Julius Caesar and Richard III.
- In London: The Comedy of Errors at the Roundhouse and Henry V at the Globe, the reconstruction of the theatre where it was probably first performed.
Mentioned below are other holidays that fall either side of this one. If you would like to book two or more holidays in a row, it will be your responsibility to make your own way between them, however we are happy to offer advice if necessary. The exceptions are tours that are specifically offered as 'pre-festival' or 'post-festival' tours – for these we provide a transfer between tour and festival where needed. Please note that our online booking process allows for only one tour to be booked at a time so please contact us if you would like to book more than 1 tour or music festival.
Great Houses of the East
- The best country houses in East Anglia and the East Midlands, outstanding examples from the end of the Middle Ages to the Victorian era.
- The Tudor and Stuart age is particularly well represented, as is the Palladian style.
- Great architecture, major works of art, spectacular gardens, landscaped parks, life both sides of the green baize door.
Matisse & his World
- A new tour for 2012.
- Specially devised to visit the exhibition Matisse: Odds and Evens at the Centre Pompidou.
- Visit Le Cateau-Cambrésis, Matisse’s birthplace in the Pas-de-Calais region and site of a Museum largely devoted to the artist.
Opera in Paris
- Bizet’s Les Pêcheurs de Perles; Prokofiev’s L’Amour des Trois Oranges; Rameau’s Hippolyte et Aricie.
- Three contrasting venues: Opéra Comique, Palais Garnier and Opéra Bastille.
- Two guided visits to places of musical interest but otherwise plenty of free time between lectures and performances.
Palladian Villas
- A survey of nearly all the villas designed by Andrea Palladio (1508–80).
- Stay throughout in Vicenza, Palladio’s home town and where he built many palaces.
- With many special appointments, the itinerary would be impossible for independent travellers.
I came home feeling completely satisfied and happy. What more could I want?
A thoroughly enjoyable excursion.
