RUGBY TOURS
DESTINATION OF THE WEEK
PORTO
WHERE RUGBY MEETS THE ATLANTIC
Porto: a multi-award-winning city break, a rugby region on the rise, and one of the most complete touring destinations in Europe.
Rugby in northern Portugal is growing fast. New clubs are springing up across Porto and the surrounding region, building on the momentum of a national team, Os Lobos, that stunned the world at the 2023 Rugby World Cup. Your team won’t just play here. They’ll train and compete in a young, fast-growing rugby scene, in a city voted one of Europe’s best destinations time and time again.
Beyond the pitch, Porto delivers in every direction: the riverside Ribeira district, the iconic Dom Luís I bridge, the FC Porto stadium, the Atlantic beaches of Matosinhos, some of the best food in Europe, and the Douro Valley or historic Guimarães within reach for a day trip.
Add the rugby scene, and you get a tour that pushes your team’s game forward while giving them a trip they’ll never stop talking about.

THE WORLD IS YOUR HOME PITCH
For 20 years, Sports Ventures has been turning rugby teams into travelers.
Every great team has a season they’ll never forget. We build tours around yours. Whether you’re chasing tougher competition, a once-in-a-lifetime trip, or both, we design your tour around your goals, not a template. Play hard-fought matches, train, and discover a destination your team will talk about long after the final whistle.
Development. Team culture. Discovery. Our rugby tours are built on all three, so your players come home better on the pitch and closer off it.

THE GAMES
Matched against clubs from Porto and northern Portugal’s growing rugby scene, including men’s, women’s, youth and academy sides. Every fixture includes pitch arrangements, private transfers, official referees, and optional physios and pre/post-match meals, so all your team has to do is show up and play.
LIFE BEYOND THE PITCH
Downtime is part of the tour, not an afterthought. Between matches and training, your team dives into some of the best group experiences Porto has to offer: a Douro river cruise under the six bridges, surf sessions on the Atlantic coast, a stadium tour at the home of FC Porto, and a team dinner over a legendary francesinha.
ONE TEAM, ONE PLAN, ZERO STRESS
Health and safety risk assessments. Your tour, made easy by a team of sports travel professionals who’ve done this for two decades.
THE WORLD, BETWEEN MATCHES

One life. Play it well.
