Gap Year Courses

 

AHA Gap Year Courses are created for students and graduates aged 18 to 25 years - no matter what your academic background.

 

Offering an exhilarating and unforgettable opportunity, we will take you to the amazing art centres of Italy and uniquely educate you on the wonders of Italian Art.

 

Teaching groups are small, and tutors are specially chosen for their ability to captivate and connect with their audience.

 

One student recently said:

 

"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."
