The Grand Tour was a necessary part of growing up for the British aristocrat of the 18th century. It was a checklist of cultural highlights across the continent, standing in these hallowed places would presumably endow the young man with all the wisdom and gravity of Classical Rome. Expert scholars were hired to accompany the youth and to attempt to educate him when he wasn’t busy drinking and whoring.
