JPL Sports Travel & Escorted Tours

25/01/2019

It's been a while since we've last posted... but we're back and heading to Wellington in March for a double header - Super Rugby and A League Football. Over the past year or so though it's become harder for us to secure the best prices for travel and accommodation (the internet has taken care of that...) so for now we're just helping with the match tickets so that we can all sit together and enjoy the fun. If you're interested in this trip get in touch asap on [email protected]
