The first of our French Rugby Tour options combines three contrasting, yet excellent cities to give you in-depth French experience. The industrial, coastal, port town of Toulon, gets things off to a start ahead of a dose of old traditionalism in the gastronomic masterpiece of Lyon. The cobbled streets and crumbling towers move on to Paris, a city which needs no introduction. One of the few things each of the three have in common is their Rugby. Toulon ruled Europe in unprec- edented fashion a decade ago with a squad full of superstars. LOU in Lyon have risen from amateur rugby to be one of French Rugby’s shining lights, whilst Paris is home to the coolest duo in French Rugby - Stade Francais & Racing ‘92.

In European Rugby, there are some iconic regions where Rugby defines the area.

Here, we celebrate three of French Rugby’s greatest cities. A wealth of Domestic and European honours are shared between them, the collective list of past-players reads like a who’s-who of French Rugby & our game courses through the veins of every village and town in this incredible part of France.

This is the tour for those teams looking to travel somewhere completely off the track & visit three incredible cities they’d unlikely do otherwise. Each city offers exceptional value for money once you’re in town, the architecture is bettered only by the nightlife & there is enough competitive Rug- by around to make it a worthy choice for your next Rugby Tour. Starting in Prague, a city which has rivalled Dublin and Amsterdam as the new ‘capital city’ of Rugby Tour s for British teams in recent years, you’ll get your biggest on-field test. Bratislava, the qui- etest of the three is a superbly beautiful mid-tour stop while Budapest is a city which blows expec- tation out of the water.

We all have friends who have been everywhere & done everything. Well, this is for them. Portugal flirted with the top table of European Rugby in both 7’s and 15’s in the ’noughties,’ but both have fallen away through a sad tale of mis-management and dwindling playing numbers. This itinerary shows off the very best of the country & we must stress, there remains some more than competitive opposition to keep you honest whilst on tour.
