Welcome!

Welcome art and culture enthusiasts to our 14 day tour into Germany, the Czech Republic and Austria to see the amazing art, design and architecture of Berlin, Prague and Vienna. From the remnants of the Berlin Wall, the neoclassical beauty of the Reichstag and the austere building designs of Germany's capital; to the medieval castle, cobblestoned streets and astronomical clocktower of Prague; to the centre of the Viennese Secession art movement, home of the royal Habsburg dynasty and classical music capital of Vienna, we will immerse ourselves in European culture. We will learn new words in German and Czech, experience a diversity of food, use different currency and soak up the European lifestyle.
Be prepared for an amazing journey that you will never forget!
