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.

This tour really opened my eyes to a beautiful part of Spain I had never visited. The simplistic beauty of the Romanesque architecture was the highlight for me especially the monastery at San Juan de le Pena. Our lecturer was incredibly enthusiastic and her broad knowledge covered not only art history, but architecture, medieval history and basically anything we asked her. "

Michael is excellent. His lectures are skilfully structured; his knowledge of his subject is encyclopaedic though he never loses sight of the wood for the trees; his timing is impeccable, and he is able to adjust to the unexpected. A true teacher, he includes participants, establishing a sense of exchange and building on their contributions. He is also generous with his spare time, making for a experience of total immersion. It was a real pleasure to watch him at work. "
