July 5-11
SCHEDULE
Through years of practice we have honed our schedule for the best combination of excellent guides, arresting architecture, and visits timed to observe ritual and communal life.
You will venture out with a great group of co-participants, savour tasty food and, lastly, you'll love the classes - attendees often marvel at how academic yet accessible they are.
It's a rich week - hold on to your hats!
