During their sunny trip, Rob is eager to introduce Rylan to his passion for the art, architecture and classical music that the original Grand Tourists came to Europe to experience.
Rylan jokes that “the closest I’ve ever been to classical music was when Pete Tong performed Ibiza dance songs with an orchestra”, but he still embraces the culture with passion.
