What our clients say

Fantastic trip

We traveled to Brazil with Chaz and Musical Getaways in December 2024. It was an incredible trip and exceeded our expectations. We had a range of musical experiences, and visited important local sites.
The local guides Musical Getways has relationships with were extremely knowledgeable and delightful company. The trip was well organized, with attention to every detail. We had never been to Brazil, and know only a smidgen of the language, but Musical Getaways took care of us. We had a small group, and had a bit of flexibility to stay longer at certain sites when we wanted to. The hotels we stayed at had great locations, great staff, and every amenity. Chaz was enjoyable to travel with. Communication before and during the trip was great. I can’t think of anything to improve. We will definitely look for another trip with Musical Getaways.

A carefully curated musical journey

Musical Getaways organises tours (as the name implies) for individuals or groups with a specific interest in exploring the musical traditions of the respective countries it visits.

As the tour was a solo trip, MG was able to use an existing template for a prior Brazil trip but modify it to include additions to the itinerary. My trip to Brazil coincided with Caetano Veloso’s concert in Rio which MG was able to secure tickets for.

MG works closely with musicians in Rio and Salvador who are also very good guides on the ground.

I would wholeheartedly recommend MG to put together a bespoke experience for your musical travel needs.

One of a kind expereince!

What an awesome trip with Musical Getaways! We did a trip that included the Petronio Alverez music festival in Colombia. I have had the festival on my radar for several years but I was not sure how to organize a trip that included the festival. I am so glad I reached out to Chaz and the team at Musical Getaways.

There was lot of wonderful attention to detail, great meals, comfortable accommodations, personalized service and special experiences like behind the scenes with musicians in our itinerary. I operate a tour company in a different city and frankly, I consider myself a tough critic. In a world of mediocre customer service, Musical Getaways knocks it out of the park, I wholeheartedly recommend this company!

Repeat Performance!

This was our second trip with Chaz and Musical Getaways. Because they showed us such an amazing time in Cuba, we gathered some friends together and headed to Colombia for a 7-day private tour with them in February 2024. Chaz and his local guides were the perfect blend of professionalism and fun, and they provided us with another unbelievable experience. If you like music and culture – you won’t be disappointed!

Barcelona

Using a guide from Musical Getaways was the best thing we could have done in visiting Barcelona, Spain! She met our every need with a smile and tremendous knowledge. She translated, arranged great concerts, backstage passes, best restaurants and museums and even hailed taxis for us. We highly recommend their services. We will definitely hire them again.
