Custom itineraries

Do the tours go inside the stadiums?
Our multiple Premier League clubs day tour is exterior only. We stop outside each stadium for photos and guided commentary, and give the group time in the club shops.
If you want to go inside, we can add a stadium visit to a custom itinerary where time allows. Stadium visits are pre-booked with the club in advance, subject to availability, and priced on top of the day rate.
Who do we work with?
We work with clubs, academies, travel agents, DMCs, and supporter group organisers who bring groups to the UK. We handle the ground experience while you handle the flights.
What vehicles do you use?
Modern coaches and minibuses with professional drivers, supplied by our established UK coach partners.
Who will actually guide our group?
Most tours will be led by Andrew Sandilands, Founder, Managing Director and lead guide of Park The Bus Football Tours, a former semi-professional player with extensive experience guiding international educational and sports groups. When Andrew is not available, your group will be led by one of our trusted guides, each chosen for their guiding experience and football knowledge. Our team includes Patrizia Tavarrini, a London Blue Badge Guide and Chelsea stadium guide. Tours in Italian are available on request, subject to guide availability. Whoever leads your group, you can expect the same football culture and history commentary between every stop. We always confirm your guide’s name in advance, so you know exactly who will be leading your group.
We provide all ground transport and stadium stops, ensuring a seamless and professional on-ground experience.
