Blow your team’s minds with a school sports tour to South Africa, the ‘Rainbow Nation’. South Africa is one of the few countries to have taken part in football, rugby and cricket World Cups. With netball also a big sport here, South Africa is ideal for multisport tours.
But it’s not just the sport that makes South Africa a great choice. It’s all the other unforgettable experiences your students can enjoy here. You can visit Robben Island (where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 years), explore a township with a local guide, and see Africa's majestic Big Five (elephant, lion, cape buffalo and rhinoceros.
South Africa is the tour they’ll never forget, and the one that is spoken about at school for years to come. And it will be because the sport was incredible. But it will also be because it was about so much more than sport. So, if you’re looking for a tour that will really teach your students about the world around them, then this is it.
