Welcome
Hello and Welcome to Aître travel agency website (architecture and contemporary art).
We are at your disposal for any questions and journey desires. Do not hesitate to write us an e-mail in English.
Aître > Travel > Art> Architecture accompanies you in the discovery of contemporary art. From a trip to the Istanbul Biennial to a customised trip in New Zealand, our tours offer unique and original routes off the beaten tracks to meet contemporary creation. We travel in small groups guided by an artist, an architect, an historian or an art critic. We conceive travels in a flexible way, in order to be attentive to personal preferences, to deepen the feeling to the works of art and to awaken a unique critical eye on our contemporary world.
« Le jardin étoilé » Kimya Maruyama
We invite you to expérience a customised journey, based on your expectations, your availability and your desires.
Traveling with Aître is not only a voyage but a unique journey accompanied by discovery and the initiation to artistic and architectural scenarios. Not only do we guide you along your journey but we also develop a critical eye based on your sensitivities.
No prior knowledge is needed, other than the curiosity and the pleasure to live an artistic experience in an exceptional environment.
For each guided tour, we design a specific travel diary. Made of cultural, historical and graphic elements, this diary enriches the work of art experience.
If you wish, we are at your disposal the whole period of the stay to share information, impressions, before and after the visits.
