The Lions in Pink Tour: Datsuzoku

The Lions in Pink, with 135 years’ service, are made up of six former members of the British Army who served together in the Royal Engineers.

The team prides itself on organisation and planning, along with a huge amount of overseas experience in South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, USA, Canada, Europe and further hostile territories. This experience ensures that whilst you’re having fun, your safety is paramount at all times.

Datsuzoku means ‘an escape from everyday routine’. Start your tour in Tokyo, taking in some of the more unusual and exciting aspects of the city before heading off to stay in a traditional Ryokan in Hakone. Heading west, Kyoto, Hiroshima and Osaka play host prior to reaching the final stages on the island of Kyushu where Wales and England will likely progress to the Quarter Finals.
