As You Like It Rugby Tours: custom rugby tours to Scotland, the UK and Ireland for American clubs
Rugby tours for adult clubs. Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland.
A competitive game against a host club, a Test match, a few big nights and a city worth seeing. We handle the fixtures, the hotels, the tickets, the dinners and the bit nobody wants to do: chasing payments, managing drop-outs and the 40 messages about who's in. One point of contact. You just bring the squad.
Your tour. Your way.
We just took Brooklyn Rugby FC to Edinburgh: 40+ players, 4 days, one unforgettable tour. Read the full story →
WHAT WE DO

ATTEND AN INTERNATIONAL
Six Nations & Nations Championship
Opportunities to attend Six Nations and Nations Championship matches. Watch the best in the world in iconic stadiums. Subject to availability.
WE HANDLE EVERYTHING
So you don't have to
Hotels, bars, restaurants, tours, transport, payments, all coordinated. You focus on getting the squad together. We'll take care of the rest.
BUILT FOR GROUPS
Easy for the whole squad
Easy payment collection with instalment plans. Your players get a simple link to commit and pay their deposit. No chasing people for money.
WE RUN ADULT CLUBS OURSELVES.
WE KNOW WHAT A TOUR IS FOR.
We run adult clubs ourselves, so we know what a tour is for: a few good sessions, a competitive game, a few big nights, and watching some crazy good rugby.
No school groups. No youth tours. No parents. Men's and women's adult clubs, from social sides to top-of-the-league sides, and old boys who want one more trip.
We don't over-plan. The core parts are set and the rest is left open for you to go and adventure on your own. We don't come on the tour and hold hands.
Your traditions, your court, your clans, your rules. We book the room and leave you to it.
We get under the hood of local club rugby: a host club matched to your level, practices on local grounds you would not get onto on your own, and the small things that make an adult club tour better.
Our own platform takes the $50 deposits and the installments from every player and does the chasing. The organiser never collects a cent.
ADULTS ONLY. NO SCHOOL OR YOUTH TOURS. THIS IS CLUB RUGBY TOURING.
