altongrimes Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 In my dance travels, I have been sometimes overwhelmed as a kind of "lonely guy" out there. As anyone knows who has tried to navigate the big cities of the world all alone, that experience can be a rather "icy" undertaking. So I am wondering if someone could recommend an alternative such as travel groups whose objective is to visit the great dance companies of the world based on a preexisting itinerary? Or, perhaps there is an alternative way to connect with fellow balletomeres and venture forth as a group to these various dance destinations? Link to comment
Drew Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Tours en L’Air whose organizer sometimes posts here does ballet travel trips —likely there are others. I have never done one of these but may in future for the same reasons you give.. I am on an iPad and can’t do a link, but I’m sure if you google “ballet travel” WITH “tours en l’air” or some such you can find it. You can do searches on this site as well. Link to comment

volcanohunter Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 https://toursenlair.blogspot.com/p/upcoming-ballet-trips.html I haven't been on one of the tours (yet), but I do know @kbarber, and she's delightful. Her tours have lots of unique extras because she knows ballet people everywhere. Link to comment

There is also Travel for the Artshttp://www.travelforthearts.com/escorted-tours/ and Martin Randall Travelhttps://www.martinrandall.com/music-opera-ballet But Tours en L'Air may be best for ballet opportunities.
