Our tours are completely customizable, so the cost of a soccer tour to Italy will vary depending on the activities you include, the length of the trip, and your group size.

We recommend you start the booking process 8 to 12 months before your desired travel. A successful soccer trip to Italy depends on the availability of hotels, flights, coaches in Italy, and competition schedules. The sooner we are able to submit your group’s request, the better we’ll be able to secure your preferred travel schedule.
Our minimum length of stay is five nights.
Yes, teams are responsible for their own air travel. Our tour planners will work with you to arrange transportation from your destination airport to the lodging in your destination city.
We offer a range of lodging options based on the budget of your group. We’ve partnered with local university dormitories, business class hotels, budget hotels and sports clubs. We realize where you stay is often as important as where you go, so we take great care in arranging accommodations tailored to your team’s needs.
This is up to your club, however, most tours allow parents and siblings to travel as well. We understand a soccer tour to Italy is something the whole family would want to experience! Parents often enjoy watching the training sessions and interacting with the academy coaches. In addition, because of GIS’ expert chaperones parents are free to leave the group from time to time and explore the city on their own.
