School Sports tours to South Africa

Need something bespoke?

Halsbury Sticker
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.

South Africa has a long and complicated history which can be explored through sport. Many of the most popular sports were brought here during colonial times. During apartheid, sport was as segregated as any other aspect of daily life. Your group will explore this with visits to Robben Island and a local township. And they’ll also get to see the beauty of South Africa, with visits to the iconic Table Mountain and wildlife reserves.

Extra Activities

Robben Island

Robben Island, just off Cape Town’s coast, is a symbol of the triumph of human spirit, democracy and freedom over adversity, oppression and racism.
