If you are a serious Modernist Architecture fan you are in for a treat. We have partnered up with USModernist® to bring out a selection of trips that take you to the most inspiring Modernist buildings in Europe.
You will see Calatrava's Twisting Torso in Malmo, Sweden; Henning Larsen's Copenhagen Opera House; and the Atomium in Brussels, Belgium, among many more amazing buildings.
USModernist-curated trips focus uniquely and exclusively on Modernist architecture, unique both in design and innovative building trends, which you get to familiarize yourself with during guided tours that are led by professionals.
Do you smile gleefully whenever Neutra or Lautner or Schindler or Mies or Gropius comes up in conversation? Then these trips are for you.
USModernist® is an award-winning nonprofit educational archive documenting mid-century Modernist design. As America’s largest open digital archive documenting Modernist houses, the organization hosts the USModernist Radio podcast, a massive architecture and design magazine archive, and a gallery of nearly every house by nearly every major 20th-century architect.
Note: USModernist is limited to advising Firebird on itineraries and provides no travel services. No one from USModernist accompanies tours. Firebird exclusively sells, processes payments, organizes, staffs, and delivers all travel services before, during, and after the tours.
I’m George Smart, founder of USModernist®. There are literally thousands of European tours, and perhaps a dozen European architecture tours, so to stand out we focus exclusively on Modernist buildings. Want to see Buckingham Palace or the Eiffel Tower? There’s free time for that. Your tour guides will take you to amazing places beyond your wildest Modernist dreams, like the Calatrava-designed Turning Torso in Malmo, Sweden.
My family and I truly enjoyed our Switzerland and Italy vacation. We couldn't have managed this trip without Firebird’s help. It was a trio of a lifetime to take with my family and it went better than I expected. I have already recommended Firebird to friends and family.
The professionalism and quality of your work impressed me greatly! England was was a destination I always dreamed to visit and it was worth it. London was nice, just as I pictured it with the red phone booths and the mighty Big Ben. The other cities included in the tour were enjoyable as well
My husband was awed by Edinburgh. He told me that he would even consider moving there given the chance! All in all, thank you for putting together such a flawless trip! We will recommend Firebird Tours to all our friends.
First, I want to thank you for all the work you did before and also while we were on our trip. It was very nice to know you were there and I could contact you when needed. Everything ran very smoothly after we got to Norway. We were able to see all the places we wanted to and found the people very friendly.
Northern Lights tour was fantastic! Great weather overall, local tour guides were very knowledgeable and well versed in their countries history and culture. Thank you again to you and your team in making this such a memorable trip!
