Choir Tours

CHOIR TOURS with the Groups Company appeal to people who want to combine their love of singing with a taste for overseas travel. The aim of a choir group may be to visit a number of locations where particular composers worked, or where a major choir festival is taking place.
 
Or a choir group may wish to take a more active approach to their holiday and stage their own performances in dramatic settings or unusual locations such as an amphitheatre at a historical site, for example.
Whether your group watches other choirs or decides to perform themselves is your choice. You and your group choose the style of choir holiday that you want.
 
We operate Choir tours to the following destinations:-
France, Greece, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Lebanon, Poland, Syria, Turkey
