Whether you’re travelling specifically to follow a major sporting event, or in a country by coincidence at the appropriate time, why not think about including a few days as a spectator as part of your holiday plans?
We will arrange your transport and accommodation (and your tickets if required) and design you an itinerary to make the most of the sporting event and still get to explore the country.

Le Tour de France
Dates: July 2010
For the 3 weeks of Le Tour de France every July, the French nation practically comes to a halt.
This year we watched the ascent of the legendary Mont Ventoux, the endless grind of the Tourmalet or follow the high-speed crossing of the Camargue. Which route will they take next year? The official tour route will be released at the end of October 2009.
Once the route is established you choose the stages you wish to see (mountaintop finish, team time trial, sprint on Paris’ Champs-Elysees) and we will devise your itinerary, arrange transport and accommodation and provide hints to ensure you will be part of the action!
