What to expect from an ICT Ashes tour

After a 2-2 series draw in England in 2023, Australia have now had their hands on the Ashes since 2018, and Ben Stokes’s cavalier side face a tremendous test if they are to buck the recent trend.

The Ashes offers two months of headline sporting drama, set across five characterful Australian cities: Brisbane , Adelaide , Perth , Melbourne and Sydney .

International Cricket Tours offer a meticulously crafted itinerary to ensure you soak in everything that makes Australia Australian.

From sun-kissed beaches to rugged outback, bustling cities to serene vineyards, we’ve got it all covered. And if you’re keen on extending your stay or making a pitstop en-route, just give us a nod. We’re here to tailor-make your dream Ashes experience.

This will be the first Ashes tour open to visiting fans for eight years, and we have no doubt it will be in high demand. Plan early to avoid disappointment.

Are you ready for the big one; an Australian Ashes Test Cricket Series in England?

We are ripped and ready to help you enjoy the next chapter of cricket's most coveted trophy in June-July 2023 with official hotel & match ticket packages.

**MATCH TICKETS ONLY ARE NOT AVAILABLE**

They're not the game's cheapest tours, but they guarantee access to the world's most boisterous, risque, musical, and subdued cricket grounds, where we have been enjoying (mostly) Ashes Cricket since 1997.

From 'jolly-good-show-old-boy' historic Lord's , to middle-ear rupturing endless singing at Edgbaston , the relentess one-eyed Lancastrians of Old Trafford , the humourous lambasting of Headingley , to 'fight-to-the-last-breath' proud Oval , where ' English Cricket died on August 29, 1882 ' , after which bore cricket's most treasured trophy, The Ashes .

Official UK Ashes 2023 Tour Operators buy match ticket and hotel packages from Cricket Australia Travel Office (CATO), as do we. Some may repackage these with a wealth of extras you may not want such as transfers, intercity travel, trips to Europe, day trips, theatre nights, etc..., all for a lot more money.

Our UK Ashes 2023 Tours Only Include:

• 6 Nights Hotel Per Test
• Breakfast Daily
• Reserved Seat Tickets Days 1-5
• Commemorative Apparel
• Pre-Test Match Function

You will be responsible for travel to, from, and through the UK, nights between tests, and travel to/from each day's play Unlike our Australian Cricket Tours to South Africa , West Indies , or India that often include transfers, day trips, road trips, or visits to other cities, our UK Ashes 2023 Cricket Tours will provide much-needed match tickets and hotel, with no add-ons except commemorative apparel.

4- and 5-star hotels that are selected by CATO (which we then choose) determines each test tour price. Prices vary for each hotel but will offer the most affordable for each hotel chosen. Prices are also affected match tickets & foreign exchange. In 2019, match tickets at  Lord's were £155 (A$280) per day so expect £180+ (A$350+) per day in 2023.

Our UK Ashes 2023 Cricket Tours won't have the cultural flavours that we include on other tours, because we are focussed on providing the most affordable way for you to enjoy an Official Tour. Our tours are for you to see Ashes Test Match Cricket , not the coal-mining museum or vestiges of British fishing. All sightseeing is up to you!

With so much to see and do away from the game, and with 3 - 8 days between Tests, easy travel options allow you to visit friends or family, Edinburgh or Estonia . In Ashes Tours past, some have driven to Land's End or John O' Groats . Many railed to Scotland, sailed to Ireland, or planed to Portugal. Direct flights from all cities take you anywhere in Europe and we hope you milk that travel opportunity.

As straight-forward as our UK Ashes 2023 Cricket Tour may be, we still include our near 30 years of touring experience to support you as required, notwithstanding we have lived in London since 1995!

We look forward to welcoming you to England in 2023 but feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.
