Bespoke destinations for the music industry

 

Marie-Elisabeth and Guido are Hip Horizons. Established in 2010 with first hand knowledge, we are partners in the know. Our endeavour is to seek out hideaways on the globe and our satisfaction comes from sharing the knowledge.
With years of experience in the music & hospitality business, we are driven by the love for travel to provide the music industry with bespoke destinations backed up with as little or as much organisation as required.
As consultants our goal is to advise on the best destination and help find you the right spaces for your needs. So we also research, source and broker on your behalf unless it is already on our portfolio.
