"I was not expecting to be with the eclectic mixture of individuals that shared this experience with me. I know I have made some friends for life. There is a magic in AHA tours that you never recapture. I have been inspired, encouraged and excited."

Venetian Colour – Bellini, Titian and Tintoretto NW
Exploring Venice with AHA is a real eye-opener; we know where to find the secret hidden gems both artistically and gastronomically speaking. We can lead you away from the crushing crowds through the labyrinth of beautiful alleyways towards quiet but spectacular piazzas. The highlight of the trip must be the private evening viewing of San Marco, visited by thousands of tourists by day we will have it to ourselves at twilight, a truly unforgettable experience. Our tutors are also well versed in the nightlife Venice has to offer; from concerts and theatre to bars and clubs, we are there to advise whatever the mood.
The course will concentrate on Venetian painters and their remarkable use of colour. The majority of the works we visit are still in the churches for which they were commissioned, allowing one to have a better understanding of the meaning and power of the paintings. We will also delve into the unique environment of Venice which influenced the painters so deeply.
