Rugby Tours to California

Our rugby tours to California offer the Wow! factor for any visiting teams looking for a high standard of sporting skills in an amazing part of the USA.

California is one of the most desired locations in the world boasting glamorous cities that we have seen on the big screen for generations. Although mainly associated with the glamourous lives of the rich and famous, California is also home to an abundance of facilities and opportunities making it the perfect location for a rugby tour.

From a sporting perspective, the state is home to an array of popular professional teams such as the San Francisco 49ers and the LA Lakers, Dodgers, Chargers and Galaxy.

Multiple excursions are another reason it’s the destination of choice for most rugby teams on tour – from the Hollywood sign and celeb spotting on Rodeo Drive, to more wondrous sights such as visiting the San Andreas Fault line and the Hoover Dam – groups will find plenty to do in between training and fixtures.
