Art & Architecture tours

From Classical orders to modernist innovations, our art and architecture tours examine many protagonists and periods in the history of civilisations around the world, whether the rich artistic traditions of Japan or the private palaces of Venice.

Explore the most famous and celebrated galleries in the world, such as the Uffizi, Prado and the Hermitage, and study countless lesser known gems on our art tours – and on our architecture tours, learn about great buildings as monuments and dwelling-spaces, as works of engineering as well as works of art, and as vital components in a city’s mythos.

" Lecturer Dana’s knowledge of the country and language shone through and her lectures were appropriately pitched for a non academic group. " Vietnam: History, People, Food - From Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh

" The itinerary was perfect in all respects. There were a number of sites and locations that I had been planning to visit all contained within the one tour. " Early Railways: The North - History, technology, architecture, landscapes

" This itinerary was perfect; it took us from the highpoint of Cluny and the Clunyites, to the Cistercians, to the glories of early and High Gothic. Our three stays were in attractive smaller cities. Bus trips could be longish, but were well worth it. " Medieval Burgundy - Abbeys and churches of the high Middle Ages

" The excellence in the smallest detail, from hotel selection to minute by minute organisation of each day and evening, the highest possible quality of the lectures, despite initial terror of finding one knew nothing, but realising one was there to learn after all, as were most attendees. " Birth of the Modern - Britain in the Age of Jane Austen & JMW Turner

" Excellent range of visits – several that would have been completely missed if travelling on my own. " Art in Madrid - The Great Galleries
