Planning and promoting international music tours is not only my specialty; it is also my passion! There are exciting opportunities for unique performing tours as well as participation in competitive and non-competitive music festivals. During the past 25 years working for Ellison Tours, I have had the opportunity to travel extensively for both business and pleasure. My personal experience has been an invaluable asset planning music tours to the following destinations: Austria, Australia, Belgium, Bermuda, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Greece, Holland, Hong Kong, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Poland, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, United States, and Wales. Please feel free to contact me for recommendations that will meet the needs of your music group…….Mary Morrice

Comments from my clients:

Europe
" Mary Morrice embodies the descriptor of the consummate professional. She conscientiously and ably organizes all aspects of touring and also graciously assists with the day to day details of leading the tour. Mary is a highly skilled problem solver doubly blessed with an abundance of patience and determination. We feel fortunate to have been able to tour with her numerous times over the past 20 years”. (Brenda) “Travelling with a group can be very stressful, but I have never had to worry about anything when Mary Morrice of Ellison Travel has been in charge. What a relief! This has allowed me to concentrate on the music and the choir, and that is how it should be. Thanks so much Mary! “ (John)
