Choir Tours

    Although Richardson and Gray organise many kinds of theme tours, tours for choirs visiting Europe are our particular speciality. 

     From your initial enquiry until the moment you board you plane home, your Richardson and Gray representative will always be on hand to answer your questions and to offer assistance. He or she will work closely combining your own input with his or her own knowledge to develop an itinerary and performance venues tailored to exactly suit your group.

"Every attention to detail was made and nothing was left undone or miscalculated.  I enjoyed our chats, your friendly manner and enthusiasm, the history lessons, etc."  Janice McGalliard, Peachtree Road United Methodist Church - Resident choir in Southwark Cathedral, July 2005
