Our Guides

We source the most talented and inspiring guides and lecturers. Our specialists include university academics, archaeologists, museum  artists, writers and broadcasters. All our guides have superb communication skills and wield a deep and fascinating knowledge shared with a friendly rapport and lightness of touch. We carefully pair each client with the guide best suited to their interests and needs. Over the years our clients build special relationships with our guides and request them time and again.

“McDonaugh takes clients behind the scenes at many of the great museums of the world, from the British Museum and Louvre, to the Vatican and The Hermitage and many more, and often knows the curators and museum directors personally. He’s closed sections of museums during opening hours for VIPs, landed clients by helicopter at classical sites before the crowds appear, and arranged private al fresco dinners in extraordinary places, from ruins in Italy to stunning English gardens.”

“Grand hoteliers still bow reverentially, pink gin is mixed correctly and The Telegraph is ironed prior to delivery…Art Tours pass the Panama-Hat Test.”
