This picturesque pocket of rural Germany is home to hillside villages, stunning cities and scenic landscapes. Steeped in history and old-world charm, the region offers a great choice of unique performance venues for adult groups, from spa town bandstands to vibrant market squares.
The tradition of band-playing is very prevalent in the Rhineland, and the locals welcome ensembles to perform in the river-side towns, making it a popular tour destination for bands. If you’re touring in the summer, be sure to ask us about the region’s wine festivals during July and August!

FAQs about this tour
Find the answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
-
Do you provide risk assessments for hotels?
Rayburn Tours have individual audits which are completed on every hotel/accommodation centre which we use. We are more than happy for you to see this should you wish. Our audits cover fire safety, means of escape and general safety.
-
What support do you have in place in the event of a crisis situation?
In the unlikely event that your group is involved in a crisis situation during your tour, you can be assured that Rayburn Tours have a Crisis Management System in place which is fully supported by ABTA, ATOL and Endsleigh Insurance Services Ltd. In 2010 our robust crisis management system was successfully implemented following the Eyjafjallajokull volcanic eruption in Iceland and 290 passengers were quickly and efficiently repatriated – this gives you the reassurance that support is on-hand in exceptional circumstances.

What does our insurance cover us for?
Our insurance providers offer comprehensive cover to our groups for the duration of their tour and is tailored specifically for schools, with specialist insurance policies for individual tour types. As with any insurance cover, it is vital that you read through the terms and conditions and that you declare any relevant information as requested. Please see our insurance page for further information and to see what is covered.

Is our Tour Manager fully DBS (formerly CRB) checked?
Our Tour Managers, Field Study Tutors and History Tour Guides, with UK citizenship, have an enhanced DBS check. Non UK citizenship Tour Managers cannot be checked under the DBS scheme.
