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.

The tour encompassed all my interests. The walks varied, the meals with the wine tastings were excellent and evenly paced, and the visits to view the art either before or after a walk were an absolute treat. "

Highly enjoyable week spent in some beautiful cities. All the party were very good company and I found the whole experience very positive as well as illuminating from an academic perspective. "

Gijs was superb: not only very well informed but enthusiastic and even moving, making good use of the telling anecdote. His special relationship with the Gaudi buildings and with restauranteurs gave us a feeling of special privilege. "
