Rugged hills and charming historic towns

The Harz Mountains are a scenic upland region in central Germany, known for dense forests, rugged hills, and charming historic towns. Its highest peak, the Brocken, is famous for its misty weather and local legends, locally known as a meeting place for witches. The Harz Mountains are a very special mix of nature, fairytale towns, and unique cultural experiences all in one region.

How to Choose your Music Tour Destination

FAQs

Find the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.

Travelling by coach is the most economical and flexible way to tour. Be collected from your meeting point and arrive at your destination in comfort on air-conditioned, high specification coaches. Enjoy the freedom of your own vehicle whilst on tour and travel in comfort with reclining seats and toilet. More and more groups choose to fly. We can arrange your flights from your local airport as well as from London. Once you have arrived at your destination, we can provide transfers to your accommodation and local coach hire throughout your music tour.

Once your tour is booked, it is safely in our hands. We will only ask for you assistance in understanding your concert requirements and you will be responsible for ensuring that the dates on our checklist are adhered to. Until your departure, you simply need to prepare your musicians musically and compile the tour repertoire.

You should book your tour between 8-18 months in advance. This will give us time to find the best possible venues for your tour and you will have ample time for fundraising should you need to do so.
