NICOL HOTEL & BEDFORDVIEW YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME
The GGArmy Ultimate World Cup Experience is making its home base the Nicol Hotel in fashionable Bedfordview ideally situated 10 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from the Sandton area of Johannesburg in the beating heart of FIFA's World Cup fan activities. Within walking distance of countless bars, restaurants, shops and clubs, the village atmosphere will be enhanced with the locals throwing a Welcome Street Party for the hundreds of Aussies who'll be making Jozi home for the Cup.

DESTINATION JOHANNESBURG
The heartbeat of the World Cup, hosting both the opening and final games, Johannesburg is the provincial capital of the wealthiest province of South Africa, boasting the largest economy of any metropolitan region in Sub-Saharan Africa. Is it any wonder that FIFA, the Socceroos and the GGArmy have based themselves in Jozi? Jo'burg is within driving distance of 8 of the 10 World Cup stadiums, and crucially ALL Socceroos' fixtures (including any potential Round of 16 game) are within driving distance.

Match Selection
SO AUSTRALIA IS SORTED... WHO ELSE DO I GET TO SEE?

Other "Non Australian" Match Selection Process:

On Friday 15 January 2010 GGArmy On Tour will email out to all confirmed participants the Other "Non Australian" match preference forms. The preference form will be in the format of an online survey and will need to be completed by 31 January 2010. On 15 February 2010 (subject to FIFA processes) we will notify confirmed participants of the Other "Non Australian" matches we have been allocated. NOTE: All match tickets will be distributed by GGArmy On Tour staff in South Africa. No match tickets will be available prior to the tour departure.

If you take the The Ultimate World Cup Experience PLUS (see the Tour Details page for more information) and Australia qualifies for the Round of 16 - subject to which day and at what stadium - it may be possible to see one or even two extra Round of 16 matches on the tour. In the Round of 16 our tour buses will be going to Round of 16 games at Soccer City, Ellis Park and Loftus Versfeld. If these games do not conflict with a Socceroos Round of 16 game, GGArmy on Tour will assist you in securing (purchasing*) tickets to these games with transport supplied by the GGArmy at no extra charge. Alternatively, if you take the The Ultimate World Cup Experience PLUS and the Socceroos do not reach the Round of 16 we will provide transfers to the above three Round of 16 games and allocate you a ticket to one of these games and help you purchase tickets* to the other two games (if you want to go).
