Sports Tour, Lake Garda
The largest and most spectacular of the Italian lakes is home to hotels with on-site or nearby sporting facilities offering school football, hockey and netball teams the chance to tour, train, play against local opposition and to thrive in team building experiences.
The nearby cities of Verona and Bologna offer the opportunity to play against local sides in football, netball or hockey. Add on a day trip to Milan and school teams will have the opportunity to tour the famous San Siro Stadium, home of Inter and AC Milan.
Lake Garda is an ideal base to take in Venice, Bologna and Verona and is an excellent destination for a team building week enrichment trip with a range of amusement parks in proximity, including Gardaland and Canevaworld Aqua Park.
A Boat trip on Lake Garda is a lovely local excursion with a stop off at the lively lakeside town of Sirmione where traditional pizza restaurants await!
Our school teams will be accommodated in spacious hotels with either on-site or nearby sporting facilities with access to swimming pools, gymnasiums, grass and synthetic sports surfaces for playing football, netball and hockey.
