Exploring England on a cultural tour

Our extensive programme of escorted tours makes merry with England’s rich artistic, industrial and political heritage. In Norfolk, specially-arranged visits give us a rare insider’s view of the county’s Neo-Palladian country houses, most of which are not regularly open to the public. Meanwhile, from Durham down to Winchester English cathedrals are our focus, as we admire not just their architectural ambition but also the problem-solving abilities of their builders.

Often, pre-eminent historians lead the way. Best-selling author Marc Morris is our guide through the Plantagenet castles and churches of Sussex and Kent, while Katherine Carter, curator of Winston Churchill’s home at Chartwell, takes us in search of the great war leader’s haunts. We work closely with music critics and broadcasters too. No wonder: private music festivals and Glyndebourne opera tours are essentials in our England tours.
