ACE Cultural Cruises

Cambridge-based ACE Cultural Cruises is part of ACE Cultural Tours, founded in 1958 as ACE Study Tours. ACE is the United Kingdom’s most experienced operator of cultural travel, organising tours and cruises across the world in art, architecture, archaeology, music, history, natural history, the theatre and gastronomy.

Each year ACE offers over 200 cultural itineraries, from one-day courses to extended tours and cruises. Our tours inform, educate and entertain in equal measure with a blend of cultural sight-seeing, privileged visits and explanatory talks – all under the guidance of a stimulating course director.

Income derived from ACE's operations either contributes to the development of new study courses or funds educational projects in the regions that host our tours.
