What our customers say about us

We know we craft incredible sports tours, but it’s better to hear it from the people who have travelled with us

University of St Andrews Cricket Club

Cricket Tour to Sri Lanka

All here at The University of St Andrews CC would like to thank Edwin Doran for producing a fantastic tour of Sri Lanka that we thoroughly enjoyed. Particular praise must go to Craig, who was always on hand and got the ball rolling, and Gemma, who dealt with the brunt of the admin and accommodated many late alternations. We’d be happy to recommend them to any prospective touring party.

St Edward's School

Cricket Tour to Sri Lanka

Our Sri Lanka tour, organised by Edwin Doran, was an unforgettable experience. The cricket matches were thrilling, and we grew as players while enjoying Sri Lanka’s culture, stunning landscapes and wildlife. From climbing Sigiriya Rock to seeing elephants up close, every moment was extraordinary. Truly a trip of a lifetime!

Robert Gordon's College

Hockey Tour to South Africa

Our Sports Tour to South Africa was so well planned by Edwin Doran. Taking 77 pupils on tour is a challenging task, but we were supported in every aspect of the planning and during our time there by experienced staff who went above and beyond to make it a really special experience for us.
