School Netball Tour to Dubai

Inspire your netball players with the tour of a lifetime to Dubai.

Dubai's large expat community and well regarded international schools mean netball is a popular sport here, so your team will have plenty of local opposition to choose from. And when you're not on court, you'll be immersing yourselves in the local culture with desert safaris (ending in a traditional Bedouin BBQ), visits to impressive mosques and boat trips on traditional dhows to see the city in all its glittering glory. And you can also head to Abu Dhabi for the day to discover more about Emirati history and culture.
