Future RL Tours with Glory Days

Glory Days are RL fans! We have had packages at the Challenge Cup Final, Super League Final, Magic Weekends, State of Origin Series, NRL Grand Final, England Challenge Matches, GB Tours and RLWCs over many years!

After a superb end of season in Australia which provided great entertainment in both the NRL Season and finals as well as the State of Origin series it has wet our appetite for further overseas tours, obviously when it is safe to do so!

We are looking at working with the NRL to offer both options below:

Tour 1 – NRL Finals Series  

Starting either Semi Finals Weekend (approx. 18-20 days) or Preliminary Finals Weekend (approx. 12-14 days).

The tour would include International & Domestic flights, Live Games (including NRL Final), Grand Final Build Up, RL Experiences, Attractions, Excursions and much more.

Tour 2 – State of Origin

The tour duration will depend on how the NRL fit the series into the season and aim to cover two SOO matches (with an option for 3).
The tour would include International & Domestic flights, Live Games (including 2 x SOO matches), RL Experiences, Attractions, Excursions and much more.

The tours would be restricted to around 40 persons and it would be fully escorted as well as meeting many RL faces on the way!

Given the circumstances we are very much at the planning stage but would love to get any interest at an early stage. We may not be able to run the tours in 2021 and if this is the case, we would look for 2022.

It is tough for all at the moment but hopefully with light at the end of the tunnel, we can start planning for Rugby League dream tours again!!

For any early interest, please email us on info@rugbyleaguetraveloffice.com or call our office on 0131 556 3840.

Top 10 Reasons to Visit Toronto for the Rugby League

I lived in Toronto during the late 1990’s and I still visit the city regularly. Plus I’m a Rugby League Fanatic, just like you!

By David Hardy (Glory Days Managing Director)

Top 10 Reasons to Visit Toronto for the Rugby League

  • The Toronto Wolfpack – Witness the incredible match day experience and pioneering approach to Rugby League in Toronto. It will be a big eye opener for all fans!
  • The Torontonians – Possibly the nicest and friendliest people in the World! Try starting a conversation with anyone at a bar or simply ask for directions. You’ll be greatly surprised how happy people are to chat or help.
  • The Food – Toronto is very multicultural and has a huge choice of food. They excel in our British food but so much choice and generally great quality. We don’t include breakfast at hotels as huge choice around the whole city and an experience to try different places. Try St Lawrence market if you have time!
  • It’s Sports Galore – It’s a sport mad city – plenty of live sports and sports bars which will show everything and not just the usual US sports. Try a sports bar and you’ll appreciate the breadth of knowledge of the sports fans, while they may not fully understand RL they are willing to learn.
  • It’s a Sports Hub – Enjoy Baseball , Basketball , Ice Hockey , Canadian Football , Major League Soccer – If you have a chance try and experience one of these amazing matches live!
  • Immersive Parks and Green Spaces – Toronto is full of open spaces to enjoy. There are parks on almost every corner and lots of streets lined with big leafy trees that are absolutely beautiful in the spring and summer. If you have time for a ferry to the Islands its great and relaxing (and not far).
  • Get Behind the Scenes – Toronto is famously utilised as a Film and TV filming location – Suits, Incredible Hulk and Hairspray have all been filmed in the city. Who knows what they might be working on during your visit.
  • The Micro-Breweries – It’s not all Bud! Huge amount of Micro-Breweries feed many of the downtown pubs. Canadians are knowledgeable and willing to share their amazing food and beer!
  • Make the most of your 2020! – There’s so much to enjoy from Rugby League, Super City, The Downtown, , Arts, Films, Beer, Wine, Food, Glorious Weather and lovely people!
