We help your team travel with customized itineraries, competition to match your level of play, quality accommodations, airfare bookings, tour preparations, and much more. Enjoy the tour while our staff makes sure the group is taken care of from start to finish.
Traveling with AIST means having at your disposal a team of experts that understand your sport needs. We can provide the best suggestions on how to organize your tour, where and when to play, and against which teams. We can also arrange for you to use athletic facilities and provide top level coaches for training sessions if you would like.
This exciting experience will give athletes a chance to really look at sports from a different perspective, and learn more about a particular country's history, culture, language and current events.
We will arrange all of the details of the trip for you including flights, accommodations, sightseeing, transportation, meals, games and guides. To top it all off we will include an experience of a lifetime for you and your group!

"AIST put together the perfect tour for our lacrosse team from start to finish. My players will have memories of London and Paris to last a lifetime! AIST takes the stress out of the travel, so we got to truly enjoy the moment with our group."
You need to check with your airline carrier for the most current airline restrictions. Some airlines charge additional baggage fees that are not controlled by AIST. For most tours, 1 checked bag is included up to 50LBS for the international flight.
Airlines are constantly changing their rules and regulations on travel. Please check with your airline for the current restrictions on luggage.
We would like for everyone to wear nice pants or shorts with their AIST T-Shirt which will be delivered 2 weeks prior to departure. This will make it easy for everyone to locate each other in the airport.
We recommend using an ATM card. You will find that ATM’s are readily available everywhere we travel. The exchange rates are up to date and the fees are usually minimal.
Cash is not recommended as it is risky to carry and you have to find exchange offices to change currency. That can be difficult at times.
If you are traveling to a destination that is on the 220 volt system you will need an adapter. Adapters can be purchased at any travel store as well as Wal-Mart and Target. Be sure you read instructions on your electrical units before plugging them into a foreign outlet.
In most cases, the destinations that we travel to do not require any kind of vaccination before departure. However, these circumstances change from time to time and you may want to research your destination to find out the current requirements. It’s always recommend to get shots if you plan to travel internationally.
It is highly recommended to purchase travel insurance. Contact Angela Hecht at ahecht@responseco.com for additional information.
A connecting ticket is needed if you have to fly in order to reach our “gateway city” for the international flight. For example, if you are joining a group leaving out of JFK airport in New York and you are starting in San Diego, California, you will need to make flight arrangements of your own to meet the group. It’s important to make sure your flight times coordinate with the international flight so that you do not miss your connection with the group. You can book your own connecting ticket or contact us and we will provide you with a connecting flight.
Gateway city is not an actual city! It is just the term we use when we have not identified the U.S. city we will be departing from. We are always negotiating for the best fares with airlines and sometimes one airport will have better fares than another. For this reason we do not establish our departure city until we have secured the airfare that is going to best benefit our clients.
