GLEN ARMSTRONG

Glen Armstrong is an artist and tour operator with a passion for sharing the art and culture of Aotearoa New Zealand with locals and international visitors alike.

Glen has a degree in art history and is an exhibiting artist. He has operated and led tours in Auckland and across New Zealand and beyond since 2007, and for fifteen years owned and operated a travel agency in Auckland.

Leading tours has seen Glen develop a deep passion for Japan, as well as for the objects and craft of Aotearoa New Zealand. He made it his mission to include all of New Zealand's regional art galleries in local tours and completed that in 2025! As a practicing artist, he has often opened his own studio to group members as part of his tours, to enable a deeper understanding of the artists and galleries in his neighbourhood, city and country.

With a warm welcome, a friendly smile and assured guiding hand, Glen is focused on connecting visitors with Aotearoa New Zealand’s art, galleries, and, importantly, people.
