"We had a fantastic season, winning the under-18 national T20 as well as getting to finals day for the under-15s.

"Touring with Smile Group Travel earlier in the year was a massive part of our preparation. We put a lot of planning into our tours to ensure our pupils not only get a fantastic experience but also get the top sporting preparation and challenge we want for, from our tours.

Phil Lewis, Director of Sport - King's Taunton, Boys' Cricket Tour: Cape Town

"Excellent experience."

“It was my first time in Barbados and for me, it was a fantastic tour from start to finish! Superbly organised by Don Topley and his team, it provided the right balance between the cricket, organised events, socialising and personal relaxation time. Don's intimate knowledge of the island was a real plus with his island tour being an excellent experience. Well done Smile Group Travel!”
