School Rugby Tour to Barcelona

Halsbury Sticker

A school rugby tour to Barcelona combines sport, sun, sea and sand! Football may be the biggest sport in Catalonia, but the sporty Catalans are pretty keen on rugby too. There’s plenty of local opposition just waiting to challenge your team!

Barcelona is a city that lives for sport, so your students will feel right at home here. They’ll love the experience of playing rugby and discovering the Spanish and Catalan cultures at the same time.

When you’re not playing rugby, you’ll have the chance to visit the iconic Nou Camp, get your adrenaline fix at Port Aventura and sample some delicious tapas. Make sure you take some time to enjoy the area’s spectacular beaches, and even try your hand at some watersports!

Launching your tour to parents and students

The next step is to get your tour approved and then get students signed up to it. Our ‘Trip Launch Pack’ will help you with this step. Here you’ll find loads of resources (all free to download) designed to make your life easier at this crucial point in the planning process.

After

Once you’ve booked, your dedicated Itinerary Coordinator will start working on the finer details. They’ll make sure your itinerary makes the most of your time and they’ll take on most of the admin tasks for your tour (making the whole process a lot less stressful for you).

Support while

While you’re out on tour, we’ll be at the end of the phone 24 hours a day to provide support should you need it. We’ll also send you a final info pack before you go and you’ll be able to access all your tour documents via the free Vamoos app.

After
your trip

When you return from your sports tour, we’ll ask you to complete a detailed feedback survey, which helps us continue to improve the service we offer. And we can start planning your next tour too, so you can give parents plenty of time to pay for it (and so it’s less stressful for you).
