Freelance docents to lead intellectual walking tours, Amsterdam and Prague
Context is a very different sort of travel company: We work with local scholars and experts to create theme-based “walking seminars” in many of the major cities worldwide. We got our start in Rome a decade ago, and today operate in more than 20 cities, working with over 300 docents, many of whom are university professors, graduate students, or independent researchers.
