Tailor-made football tours in South Africa

Imagine playing your favourite sport against the beautiful backdrop of mind-blowing Table Mountain or the crashing coastline at Boulders Beach.

Our tailor-made football tours in South Africa allow you to do just that.

Still revelling in the footbal fever created by the recent FIFA World Cup and Confederations Cup, South Africa offers the perfect setting for your team getaway.

Boost your squad's passion for the game with the sporting trip of a lifetime.

Your players' tactics and techniques will come on in leaps and bounds, inspired by the well-known South African players of the English Premier League: Stephen Pienaar (Everton and Tottenham), Quentin Fortune (Manchester United and Bolton) and Benni MaCarthy (Blackburn and West Ham).

Our bespoke football tours in South Africa allow touring sides to play against a top club in a real stadium.

But aside from the glamour and excitement, don't miss the chance to see the other side of life in this stunning country, playing a development game in a township.
