European hockey tours for players who love the game

What You're in For

See Europe

You’ll see the places you’d regret missing, and some corners you’d never have found on your own. We’ve spent years playing in these cities. We know where to go after the game.

Play The Locals

You’ll take the ice against local clubs in their home barns. Then get to know your opponents postgame, and come home seeing the game from a new perspective.

Arrive Solo. Leave Connected.

Most players sign up on their own. You’ll join a roster of players from across North America and start the tour as strangers, but you won’t finish it that way.

Probably the greatest experience of my life. Until next year when I do it all again. Unbelievable group. Well organized and makes everything so easy and care free for you to be able to enjoy your trip. I went into this trip knowing zero people from the Group and I left with new best friends and brothers. 10/10 recommend for anyone looking to explore the world and play your favorite sport while doing it.

Andrew Smith
Atlanta, USA

Had such an amazing time.Had a great influx of culture that I did not expect and met some really great people along the way. The activities were not only fun, but everything was organized very well logistically and you could tell that a lot of thought was put into each decision. Same goes for the hockey, the games were super fun and competitive and the people played against were great hosts. 17/10 would recommend!

Adam F.
Montreal, Canada

Had a fantastic time playing hockey in Europe. Was my first time over there and everything was handled super well, we had great accommodations and everyone in the group was awesome. Got to walk around and see so many sites in the 10 days we were there as opposed to just doing a bus tour. Would highly recommend!
