Hockey Tours to Germany
Experience the hockey hype in Cologne
The German men’s national hockey side is one of the most successful in Europe, and with a bronze medal at the 2016 Olympics, the women’s national team isn’t far behind! As a result, the youth game is strong, making a hockey tour to Germany a great option for touring teams from the UK. We recommend groups stay in Cologne, home to many local hockey clubs and a wonderful city and sightseeing area.
