Florence
We only had a long weekend to do the city and so your tour really helped us get our bearings. There's just so much to see there! I know we only scraped the surface but it worked really well for us.

Venice
This was a great tour that took you everywhere you needed to go. Particularly liked the walk through of the mosaic frescoes on the front of the Basilica. We had a great time in Venice, made all the more special by this evocative guide. Like the speaker's voice too - one of the best I've listened to.

LONDON - NEW ANTONY GORMLEY SCULPTURE AT ST PAULS

St Paul’s Cathedral has unveiled ‘Flare II’, a new work by Antony Gormley in the dramatic setting of the Cathedral’s Geometric Staircase.

As we discuss in our guide to London and our mp3 tour of the city of London, St Paul's has an interesting architectural design which makes it look bigger from the outside than it actually is.

The installation forms part of St Paul’s Cathedral Arts Project, an ongoing programme which seeks to explore the encounter between art and faith. 

Antony Gormley said,

"Wren understood proportion, space and gravitational dynamics as no other British architect of his time and the Geometric Staircase is a supreme and elegant outcome of this understanding. "Flare II" is my attempt to use applied geometry to construct an energy field describing a human space in space. I am delighted to have the opportunity to show this work in such a brilliant and relevant context. ”
