WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

“From start to finish everything was perfect, we went to Salou for 5 days, played 2 games,did a stadium tour of Espanol, trained with Espanyol and did a day in Barcelona, the hotel was brilliant, couldn't fault the coach always arrived on time, if you're looking to book an October trip I'd definitely recommend this trip. Cheers Jess for always been there when needed.”
“Just recently been to Holland with SLT Tours for our U11’s football team and Lee was our representative member of staff. He was absolutely amazing, any issues (not that we had any as it was planned that well), clarification on information was not a problem for Lee, he would be more than happy to help. He is such a down-to-earth lovely person. From start to finish it was packed with fun activities for the kids and everything ran so smoothly thanks to the organisation. I would not hesitate to use this company and Lee again! Made the best memories for my family with their help. ”
“We recently travelled with SLT Tours for our club’s trip to Sheffield Wednesday stopping off at Old Trafford and the Etihad arena! The experience from start to finish was top-class. From the moment we set off, the journey was smooth, well-organised, and hassle-free. Everything ran on time, and it was clear that SLT had put real thought into the logistics. The whole Bangor Swifts Juniors travelling (96 players, parents, coaches combined) appreciated how seamless everything was. It made the matchday experience even better knowing we didn’t have to stress about transport, what we were getting up to or where we needed to be! We would absolutely recommend SLT Tours to any club or group looking for reliable travel with a personal touch.”
“Barnsley FC Foundation Phase had a fantastic trip to Scotland, playing games and stadium tours along the way. The trip from start to finish was excellent with everything running smoothly. All players and staff who travelled were all taken care of. SLT managed the whole trip from booking to arrival home, thanks to Jamie and Jake for all their help and support. ”
“Jamie, Jake and the rest of the guys at SLT were amazing for our boys’ football trip to Holland at Easter. They were very attentive, eased the process for us throughout and no requests were ever difficult for them. Wouldn't hesitate to book through SLT tours in the future, a great team!”
“We had a great tour to Barcelona, staying in Lloret de Mar and playing four matches while we were out there. Great organisation and fabulous experience for our Academy Scholarship players at Bedworth Utd FC Academy. Thanks”
“A wonderful Tour. For the past 3 years we have enjoyed fantastic experiences in Spain – Barcelona & Salou. Live matches fixtures and good entertainment. Really delighted to create happy memories with our learners and staff. Jess & Jamie have been brilliant support with help, sound advice and quality support on every aspect of our Tour planning. On to the next one.”
“We recently took a group of 112 students and 12 staff on a trip organized by this company, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly professional and helpful throughout, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable for everyone involved. The trip offered amazing opportunities for all students, with top-class training sessions, competitive matches against local Spanish opposition, and access to incredible facilities. It was great to see the students so engaged, and the schedule also allowed teachers time to relax and enjoy watching the students train and perform. There was a perfect balance of structured activities and downtime, including a memorable tour of a major stadium, which added to the overall experience. We would definitely recommend this company and are already looking forward to using them for future trips. Every student and staff member returned home happy and full of great memories! ”
