Architecture
Fascinating historical and modern architecture features on a number of ACE tours: from iconic buildings in great cities to fascinating churches and temples and magnificent country houses, palaces and stately homes across the world.
Several tours are dedicated to a study of architecture, whilst others take as their focus both the history and style of buildings – be they religious structures, private residences or public landmarks – and also their surroundings, artistic contents and other nearby places of interest to provide a wide overview of a destination and its cultural significance.
ACE architecture tours are led by experts whose specialisms vary as widely as the buildings explored.
