Artist's Journey
Paris and Madrid are home to some of the best art in the world. Works by Velazquez and Goya at the Prado, masterpieces like the Venus de Milo and the Mona Lisa at the Louvre—the collections span many styles and art movements. Meanwhile, fine baroque architecture is evident in Madrid’s Palacio Real, while the history of France is honored in the Arc de Triomphe.

In their own words...

I have gained more confidence, independence, and knowledge of new cultures on this tour. I’m grateful that we had an amazing group and have been able to see and do as much as possible!

I really enjoyed meeting so many new people, exploring history. I really enjoyed experiencing traditions and culture. I'm grateful for the history I've learned, and seeing how far we have come. I felt so comfortable, and really at peace being on this tour. I'm inspired, I want to bring my family to these places someday!

Mrs. Shelton & EF made the trip go super smoothly...I grew a lot in my knowledge about Europe, especially Germany, and Austria. The biggest thing I gained from this trip was to be more grateful. I feel extremely blessed that I was able to find a spot on this tour after someone miraculously dropped out. It was an incredible experience...I am now more eager to travel!
