G Adventures launches football‑themed travel tours in England
Tour operator G Adventures announced the launch of "Away Games," a series of football‑focused itineraries across England. The programme, set to begin in October, will offer more than 30 departures that combine premium match tickets with cultural experiences such as pub crawls, local food tours and behind‑the‑scenes stadium access.
In London, a five‑day Fulham itinerary (Nov 6‑10, 2026) includes a match at historic Craven Cottage, hospitality in the Riverside Stand’s Markers Lounge, a neighbourhood pub crawl, a local food tour and a lower‑league fixture, priced at US$3,739 per traveller. A Manchester United package (Dec 18‑22, 2026) provides executive seating at Old Trafford, backstage stadium tours, visits to supporter pubs and exploration of the city’s industrial heritage for US$3,479 per person. A Tottenham itinerary adds VIP halfway‑line seating, premium dining, a tour of the stadium’s retractable pitch and time spent in North London’s football culture.
The launch taps into sports tourism, which UN Tourism estimates accounts for about 10 % of global tourism, highlighting the growing demand for travel experiences built around major sporting events.
