Tour Planning

A route that pays for itself.

Routing, advancing, trucking and budgets built by people who have ridden the bus, not just built the spreadsheet.

Most tours don't fail on stage — they fail on a 640-mile overnight nobody costed, or a venue that never got advanced. We build the route around drive times, day-off economics and load-in realities, then advance every date in writing so the crew rolls into a building that already knows what's coming.

  • Routing, day-off placement and drive-time modeling
  • Tour budgets, settlements and per-diem structures
  • Trucking, bussing, cartage and international freight
  • Venue advancing, tech packs and production riders
  • Travel, visas, carnets and credential management
