An incredible destination for a school music tour
Rome, Italy’s capital is a sprawling, cosmopolitan city with nearly 3,000 years of globally influential art, architecture and culture on display that attracts to its doors millions of people each year. Ancient ruins such as the Roman Forum and the Colosseum evoke the power of the former Roman Empire and her magnificence and will leave you breathless. Vatican City, headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church, boasts St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums, which house masterpieces such as Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel frescoes. If you feel the heat is too much to handle, just 18 miles west of Rome's historic centre, you'll find Lido di Ostia (Ostia Beach), Rome's longest and most popular beach, stretching over six miles from the mouth of the Tiber (foce del Tevere) south to Capocotta. Rome and its surroundings is an incredible destination for a school music tour, giving you a taste of “La dolce Vita” and leaving you inspired and relaxed by the end of your visit.

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