At AHA we have 3 wonderful Summer Courses. You can choose one, mix and match two, or do all three for the ultimate 7-week Gap Year Summer through Europe!
- The European Summer Course travelling through London, Paris and Nice.
- The Northern Italy course, a journey through Rome, Florence, Venice.
- The Southern Italy route, travelling from Sicily up to Naples.
This summer, you could be joining us on the adventure of a lifetime!
You could start with our brand-new 3-week European Summer course (16 June–7 July 2025):
A whirlwind tour of Europe’s most iconic cities: the elegance of Paris, the creative energy of London, and the sun-drenched charm of Nice, discovering the art that shapes the modern world.
You can then continue with our two Italian summer courses: Northern and Southern.
The Northern course (7–21 July / 21 July - 4 August), travels through Rome, Florence, and Venice, offering a brilliant overview of Classical art, the Renaissance, the Baroque, as well as contemporary art and architecture.
The Southern course (7–21 July 2025), takes you through Sicily and up to Naples. It is really evocative, with ancient Greek and Roman sites as well as amazing Baroque.
You can combine the two for a brilliant 4-week Italian full immersion, or a mix of Europe and Italy, or all 3 courses for a 7-week full European experience!
You will look at beautiful art but also learn how to cook, how to marble paper, how to row in Venetian canals, talk about literature and philosophy, go to the theatre, maybe watch a football match, and so much more for the most comprehensive and exhilarating summer!
Who is it for?
For the summer holidays, these are wonderful study courses for the last year at school or for a gap year. They also help with interviews as an indication of self-motivated study. AHA’s summer courses are for curious students, keen travellers, and lifelong learners eager to explore Italy in depth. Our small groups are guided by young, friendly tutors who bring Italian history and culture to life with a fresh, engaging approach.
Why:
AHA’s courses blend travel, learning, and personal growth. Our tutors make the journey fun and insightful, helping you connect with Italy’s past and present.
