  Fancy a fantastic trip to The Rhineland

Concert Tour Operator, Rayburn Tours, has built up a worldwide reputation for helping bands enjoy superb visits to exciting locations all over the globe — with The Rhineland one of their most popular destinations.

Next tour

A spokesperson told 4BR: "Why not choose The Rhineland for your next band tour? There is a wonderful tradition of brass music in the region, with many of the spa towns offering a warm welcome to instrumental groups.

There are also so many fantastic performance opportunities — from quaint bandstands to beautiful spa halls, enabling you to mix and match your approach and reach out to audiences. All that and there are some brilliant summer wine festivals that can be linked up with to offer even more exciting possibilities!"

5 star

The North Tyneside Renaissance Band recently came back for a wonderful 5 star tour, where they performed at Bad Munster am Stein-Ebernburg, Linz am Rhein Marktplatz and the Seniorenresidenz Moseltal.

Band Spokesperson Bob Harrison told 4BR: "'Having first toured with Rayburn in 1995, we knew that we would get an outstanding service and a well organised tour.

All the venues were excellent and it all made for a successful and enjoyable experience."
