MUSIC TOURS

John Howie has been leading successful music tours across Europe, USA, Asia, New Zealand and Australia since 1995, but is first and foremost a musician. He and his twin brother, Graeme perform as The Howie Brothers, one of Australia’s leading country music/easy listening/vocal harmony acts. The idea behind the music tours are quality sightseeing during the day and fantastic music at night. Most of the tours are led by top artists in their music field such as Adam Harvey, Craig Giles and Jules Boult. Join us on one of the following fantastic music tours.
