About Us
Gullivers Sports Travel
Gullivers Sports Travel is the UK’s leading and longest established rugby and cricket tour operator. Starting out as a high street travel agency, Gullivers Travel in 1971, the company became Gullivers Sports Travel in 1985 and we are proud of our position as the market leader in our field. Our reputation is based on personal service and a full understanding of the needs of sporting travellers, whether you are supporting or playing.
Gullivers took its first Lions Supporters Tour to South Africa in 1980, following Bill Beaumont’s team, and has been an official travel agent at every Rugby World Cup to date from the inaugural tournament in New Zealand in 1987. Since then, Gullivers has taken rugby supporters all over the world following the fortunes of their team. Gullivers was an Official Licenced Operator for the British & Irish Lions Tour South Africa 2009.
Rugby supporters tours
Since our first Ashes tour to Australia in 1982, Gullivers along with other loyal England supporters have travelled the world supporting the team through the ups and downs of international touring. Amongst many other official appointments, Gullivers was an Official Travel Agent for the ICC Cricket World Cup West Indies 2007.
Cricket supporters tours
We organise travel and fixtures for hundreds of schools and clubs from all over the UK to sporting destinations around the world. Whilst our main sports are rugby, cricket, hockey and netball, if you want to play it, then our network of sporting contacts is so extensive that the chances are that we can organise it for you. Please feel free to get in touch with our specialist sales department and sound out your ideas.
Sports Tours for Schools & Clubs
Our annual programme of rugby festivals is growing all the time and our intention is to branch out still further into other sports, including hockey and netball.
