HEADS FOR TRAVEL,
HEARTS FOR SOCCER
Right from the kick off, it’s been about the soccer.
It’s in our blood. We’re a passionate team of top-
level soccer coaches and players dedicated to
sharing our love of the beautiful game with players
of every age, from every corner of the earth.
We work at the very highest level, coaching national
teams on the international stage, as well as running our
own thriving grassroots club. So, when it comes to our
tours, we take a completely tailored approach, creating
incredible itineraries based on your specific goals.

We take teams on unforgettable journeys, travelling to
amazing cities and iconic stadiums, meeting heroes and
making friends. Unrivalled on-the-ground knowledge
means we can partner you with professional and national
clubs for demanding training sessions, challenging
games and inspiring behind-the-scenes tours.

We’re soccer people doing tours, not tour people doing
soccer. We know the game and we know what it’s like to
be a player, a fan, a coach and a manager. That’s why
over 2,000 soccer-loving clients from over 36 countries
choose AM Sports Tours again and again.

ST ANDREWS

                      St Andrews is also known
                      worldwide as the “home of golf”.
                      The Old Course, the world’s
                      most famous golf links, has
                      a striking seaside location
                      at the western end of town –
                      it’s a thrilling experience to
                      stroll the hallowed turf.
                      Nevertheless, it’s a lovely place to visit
                      even if you’ve no interest in the game, with
                      impressive medieval ruins, stately university
                      buildings and idyllic white sands.

EDINBURGH
Scottish people called it Auld Reekie,many
others call it one of the best cities in Europe!
Edinburgh is not only one of the most beautiful cities
in Europe, it is a city with a fantastic position. The view
falls on all sides – green hills, the hint of the blue sea,
the silhouettes of the buildings and the red cliffs.

It is a city that calls you to explore it by foot – narrow
streets, passageways, stairs and hidden church yards
on every step will pull you away from the main streets.

Edinburgh is a city that begs to be discovered,
filled with quirky, come-hither nooks that tempt
you to explore just that little bit further.

AM SPORTS TOURS STAFF
The AM Sports Tours staff that will accompany
the group on the tour will ensure that you arrive
in Europe with the knowledge that you will be
well taken care of.

Our staff are unique in that we are soccer people doing travel
and not travel agents doing soccer. The passion for the game
and ensuring you have a truly unforgettable experience is at
the forefront of every part of the tour - before, during and after.

Our staff are easily available pre-tour to assist with
registration and any other queries you may have. Our
aim to make you as comfortable as possible as we are
aware that for some it is the first time outside of the USA
and for others, they are bringing their whole family.

We provide a number of staff members to coordinate and
deliver the tour when you arrive and all have vast experience
in the destinations dealing with groups of all sizes.

We hope that you leave not only with unforgettable
memories of the tour but also with new friends made with
families you didn’t know and the AM Sports Tours staff!
EURO 2021

FAMILY EXPERIENCE
AM Sports Tours are committed to making every trip
a once in a lifetime experience not only for the players
but for the families as well.

We understand that families sometimes need time on their own to
relax or to visit some of the attractions at their own pace as a familiy
so we create a schedule that allows you to take time out and enjoy
Scotland together. There are also times that parents prefer time
alone to experience the cities and can do so in the knowledge that
the players are enjoying their time in a comfortable environment.

Scotland is truly a gem of a country and we will
ensure you get time to see the best of it.

Whether that’s experiencing the stunning city of Edinburgh of
the historic wonders of St Andrews, our schedule will perfectly
balance the soccer, sightseeing and family time to ensure
everyone can create memories that will last a lifetime

TRAVELINSURANCE
 Having the right insurance gives you the security of
 knowing that you are covered for those unexpected costs.
 Sometimes things don’t go to plan. Your car may breakdown
 or be involved in an accident, which could mean you miss
 your flight. You could lose your bag, mobile phone, computer
 or they may be damaged or stolen. Worst of all you could
 end up having to make an unexpected visit to the hospital.
 Having the right insurance gives you the security of knowing
 that you are covered for those unexpected costs.
