The Rhine and Moselle Valleys are both very popular and successful destinations for our young performing groups. These two regions sit next to each other and are bound together by the confluence of the two rivers at Koblenz. The Rhineland, with its sweeping vineyards, quaint halftimbered houses and imposing castles, is steeped in legend and history. The Moselle Valley, quieter and less scenically dramatic than its neighbour, is no less interesting; the wine town of Cochem has a lively atmosphere and an imposing castle, while the Roman city of Trier with its mighty city gate, the Porta Nigra, makes an interesting excursion.

In addition to this region’s many beautiful churches and spa towns, groups can also give a recital at Cologne Cathedral (sacred choirs only) or take part in one of the wine festivals.

At Bacharach Youth Hostel you can authenticate your tour to the area by staying in this medieval castle, perched on the cliffs overlooking the Rhine valley. Groups can use the Knights’ Banqueting Hall for rehearsals and concerts and reside in 10 bedded dorm rooms high up in the tower overlooking the valley. The hostel has a central courtyard which can be used for meals or socialising.
Also in its own grounds, Traben-Trabach youth hostel is situated some 20 minutes’ walk from the centre of this charming small town. This modern, well-run hostel offers 170 beds, with all rooms having private facilities. Students’ rooms in this hostel are 4-bedded, with bunks. Leaders’ rooms also have bunks, usually with one pair of bunks per person.
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.
We understand that school music tours are considered as a reward or holiday for many groups and that where you stay is really important. All hotels and hostels we use are suitable for young music ensembles with many offering rehearsal space and instrument storage. Rooms are normally multi-bedded for students and twins, sometimes singles, for adults. Generally, rooms are en-suite.
We accept any group as long as they are used to performing together as an ensemble, even if only to their fellow students and parents. We always ask for a recent recording of your group and we have range of venues on offer that will welcome beginner groups as well as experienced ensembles.
