The Netball Package

With so little competitive netball on offer in Europe, South Africa represents a fantastic alternative for your school, club or university tour. The season runs from February to October with tournaments and tailor-made tours available to suit your age and ability levels. School groups may wish to consider combinations with rugby and hockey teams too.

Excursions & Visits

There are so many possibilities on a tour of South Africa:

Cape Town for most is a must. Situated at the foot of the iconic Table Mountain, it is probably one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Highlights include Table Mountain cable car, Robben Island, the V&A Waterfront, Newlands Stadium and Two Oceans Aquarium.

From the city you can make visits to Cape Peninsula including the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point, and also Boulders Beach penguin colony.

A game drive in one of the National Parks or Game Reserves is another must, with the chance to see the Big Five (lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and buffalo).

A township visit (Langa, Cape Town or Soweto, Johannesburg) will help you learn about the country's chequered past and its hope for the future.

Travel through the mountain vineyards to Stellenbosch, and along the beautiful Garden Route, including Knysna (Elephant Park), George and Mossel Bay.

Your tailored itinerary can also include visits to Johannesburg, Sun City and Durban.
