Performing Concert Tours |
|
|
|
Imagine the thrill
of performing to an audience abroad of 2,000 in a Venetian cathedral or 10,000
during the choral festival in Estonia!
Passport Travel
can now
open the gateway to the world’s music stages with our performing
concert tours department ‘staffed by musicians for the needs of musicians’. Symphony
orchestras, ensembles, bands, choirs, dance ensembles and music
appreciation groups are catered for with specific attention to
all details necessary for a successful tour.
All our performing
tour ideas can be also the basis for Music Appreciation
tours where performing is replaced by attending and more
emphasis on specialised museum visits and local workshops.

Festivals and Competitions |
|
|
|
Performing tours are possible
for music groups of all ages and standards. We are very careful in selecting
appropriate destinations and venues according to the wishes of each client
request.
Adult choir groups can find much
joy in a performing tour to New Zealand, South Africa, the United Kingdom,
Malaysia or China as the blend is successful concerts with interesting and
fun sightseeing.
Student music groups often
require destinations which compliment their studies so European ones are
traditionally requested however for groups wanting the thrill and challenge
of competition then the sky is the limit.

Frequently Asked Questions |
|
| |
F.A.Q’s.
Will I
be limited to one of the itineraries in your brochures or on your
website?
No, you will not.
These itineraries are just examples of the tour experiences we can
create for you. They are a starting point for you to put together your
own itinerary. PASSPORT TRAVEL tailors all itineraries specifically to
your needs. You are therefore welcome to contact us with your ideas and
itineraries and we would be happy to prepare a quote.
So how much will
the tours cost?
PASSPORT TRAVEL
does not publish any price lists for group tours. The price of a tour
depends on a variety of factors, i.e. the number of travelling participants
(students and teachers), the time of the year for the tour (high or low season),
and the package inclusions (i.e. type of accommodation, meals to be included,
guided tours, and the mode of transport). PASSPORT TRAVEL will provide you with
a quote which is based on your individual requirements and your budget. Please
contact us with your trip details and proposed itinerary at your earliest
convenience.
Are your group tours for
school groups only?
No, you are welcome to
contact us for any group tour you are planning, be it for an orchestra/ choir,
local sports club, or just a group of friends.
We look forward
to hearing from you!
