Tailor-made rugby tours in India

With a newfound fervour for rugby sweeping the country, you'll find plenty of clubs and players keen to take on your squad, on a Gullivers tailor-made rugby tour in India.

The first rugby match to be played on Indian soil took place back in 1872, between England and a combined Scotland, Wales and Ireland side.

Since then, the sport has risen up the ranks, seeing India become a member of the International Rugby Board (IRB) in April 1999.

India's armed forces and police have even adopted the sport, boosting rugby's profile to new heights, across the country.

Gullivers can cater for all ability levels on our bespoke rugby tours in India, from newer teams to more experienced sides.

So if you're up for an adventure thrown in with this year's team trip, take a look at our tailor-made rugby tours in India.
