Freewheeler package

THOMAS Cook Sport, one of the four official, licensed operators for the British and Irish Lions tour of South Africa next year, has put together a Freewheeler package for Irish fans; those who like independence and want to avoid transfers through London.

The packages will operate out of Dublin via Paris, and they offer fans the chance to arrange their own accommodation and travel within South Africa.

The Freewheeler package from Dublin includes official tickets for all three test matches, as well as the Emerging Springboks match in Cape Town, and access to the supporters’ Big Bar. Packages start from €3,044.
