WHAT TO EXPECT
Global Players (GP) Team Tours are based on the philosophy that participants will be travelers, not only tourists, by the end of their trip. Our programming focuses on Athletes and Teams being immersed in the Host Culture by:
We believe travel is for everyone. Therefore we offer three (3) pricing options for Teams with different Budgets:
HOW IT WORKS
We created 5-day Tours to mix-n-match! To build a 10-day tour, choose 2 cities, enter you preferred Start Date, # of Travelers, and add both to your cart.
Booking: During checkout, please indicate your TEAM NAME and if you would like Option 2 or 3 under “add a note to your order”. If Athletes are paying separately, make sure everyone selects the same Tour(s) and Option. One point person is designated to work with Global Players, for example a Coach or Team Manager.
Payments: If you choose Option 2 or 3, you will have 3 payments. The non-refundable Deposit ($195 per person) is charged at booking to start your Program Development. We will bill you later for the Booking Fee ($300 per person) and Remaining Balance (variable).
Next Steps: Once your Booking is received, a dedicated GP Tour Consultant will contact you to start planning your Tour!

This itinerary combines city exploration, cultural experiences, professional sports events, and team activities to provide a diverse and memorable experience for the college sports team in Hamburg.
The best time to visit Hamburg is during late spring (May to June) and early autumn (September to October). During these months, the weather is generally mild and pleasant, making it ideal for exploring the city and enjoying outdoor activities. These seasons are considered the shoulder seasons, providing a good balance between comfortable weather and fewer tourists compared to the peak summer months. Hamburg hosts various events and festivals during these times, creating a lively and vibrant atmosphere.
