African Travel Down to a Fine Art

All art aficionados understand the beauty and the intrinsic value of museums. Yet, they also understand that the ultimate way to engage with a work of art is in its local context. You deserve the opportunity to engage, in person, with local African art and emerging African artists.

Our art specialist division has planned luxury art and cultural tours to South Africa for museums such as the Tate, Guggenheim, Friends of the Israel Museum, Centre du Pompidou and most recently, SFMOMA. We were also appointed one of the official travel specialists for the opening of Zeitz MOCAA in 2017.

South Africa is home to famously ancient and beautiful artworks, as well as a host of challenging contemporary artists. Our programmes are based on personal experience, local knowledge and close ties to the art community. Every itinerary we create is unique and customised to the individual or group’s needs and interests. We are also able to assist with exhilarating pre- or post-art-programme extensions to see the abundant wildlife our beautiful country has to offer.

From intimate studio visits, dinners and excursions to home tours with private collectors, curator-led trips to galleries like the Goodman Gallery, Stevenson, SMAC, Whatiftheworld, Gallery Momo, Blank, Everard Read and more, South Africa offers an array of encounters with local art and culture. Each excursion is peppered with colourful conversations with well-respected artists, gallerists, curators, collectors and leaders in the African art world.
