Painters Tours
Walk in the Masters’ Footsteps

Visit the streets Van Gogh painted in Arles, the cafés where Picasso drew in Barcelona, the ateliers Vermeer used in Delft. AR overlays the master’s actual painting on the real building, lets you compare brush vs. brick, and tells you what the painter saw that day. Loved by solo travelers, couples and small groups.

  4. 4

    Open the camera, hunt clues in AR

    At each stop, open your phone camera and point at the façade. An AR character appears on the real wall and narrates the story in your language.
