Whether it’s training at St. George’s Park, playing against English opposition, exploring London landmarks, or cheering inside a Premier League stadium, this is more than a tour — it’s the trip of a lifetime.
ENGLAND
Encapsulating the country's famous traditions, an XL Sports tour of England centers on the sporting hubs of London and the Northwest. St George’s Park provides a truly inspiring insight into the work of an international soccer player, while the city of London boasts a range of magnificent landmarks. Whether you want to soak up the atmosphere at Old Trafford, or stroll towards Buckingham Palace, we tailor your tour for the perfect fit.
XL Travel created the ideal experience for our team. They have unique ties that offered us the opportunity to see two tremendous matches (Manchester United in the FA Cup and Sporting Lisbon in the UEFA Cup), train at Manchester City and Everton with their academy staff coaches and play matches against top level competition. The 24 hour support the XL Travel staff gave us was essential on a trip like this. I wouldn't think about travelling abroad without XL.
