Arts & Crafts Tours

Begun in 1992 Arts & Crafts Tours provides uniquely conceived, small group tours that study and examine the roots and influences of the Arts & Crafts Movement. With a group of world renowned guides - lecturers, art and architectural historians, connoisseurs, collectors and curators - our tours open the doors of private homes and collections to a worldwide group of enthusiasts.

Our experienced staff works with institutions, organizations, societies, and small groups to design a travel experience that is individualized and especially suited to the interests and ways in which you wish to travel - Bespoke tours.

Our European tours can be planned for as few as six or as many as twelve people and we will work with you to select the theme and/or destination and dates that fit your interests and schedule. We will include time for antiquing - and help by making introductions - and time for shopping or just wandering around. If you are not sure you want to travel on a group tour, ask us about our itinerary consulting service. We will develop an individual itinerary just for you - and arrange for your hotels and any guides and drivers you may need.

Take a short virtual tour through our site. The brief descriptions of past tours offer suggestions of what we might plan for you. As with any hand tailored item, a tour planned by Arts & Crafts Tours, is one of a kind. We believe when you have read what we do and looked at what our past participants have said, you will see why we pride ourselves on tours which cater to travelers with discerning tastes and a keen intellectual curiosity - tours for those who would not consider taking a group tour. Your memories and pleasures will last a lifetime.
