A sports tour provides the perfect excuse for a holiday abroad – the chance to witness momentous events in the company of fellow fans, and explore one of the world’s great destinations. England’s cricket tour of South Africa this winter is a case in point: go to a Test match, visit Cape Town and the Winelands, stay in superb hotels and enjoy hosted dinners with legendary ex-players.
