While 2009 seems to be a long way off, for many of us it is the tour of a lifetime, and planning and preparation for a tour like this does take a considerable amount of time and effort. Fortunately, Premium Sport Tours will be operating their 5th tour to England for the Ashes, and most of the organization, planning and bookings will all be done for you. Having this experience behind you, is comforting to know that you are dealing with an organization who has successfully planned and operated many successful Ashes campaigns.
And while the Ashes Tests in the Old Dart are always the ultimate for any cricket tragic, this year the new phenomenon of Twenty20 cricket will also be highlighted in the ICC World Twenty20 at around the same time. Premium Sport Tours are delighted to have been officially appointed for this event by the ICC, and we are also the official appointed tour operator for the other available Test matches.
We are therefore delighted to be able to offer a number of options covering both the ICC World Twenty20 and Test matches, and offer fully inclusive touring packages which include the best of sightseeing that Europe has to offer. This includes a wonderful option of Eastern Europe incorporating Vienna, Prague and Berlin, or an alternative tour taking in the spectacular cities of Venice, Nice and Monaco.
The cricket though is the purpose of the tour and we have seen Ponting's team restore the urn to its rightful owners after an upset on our last tour to England, however the English will be confident of reclaiming it as they did on their home turf in 2005. Not to mention gaining some revenge for their 5 - 0 hiding down here in 2006 - 7.
