“Having dreams is what makes life tolerable” – Rudy 1993 

We believe life in its simplest form is about the experiences you have, the stories you tell about the things you've seen and done, and the people that have moved you. We used these beliefs to create not just packages but memorable sporting experiences. We achieve this with a team of sports enthusiasts who cultivate the best contacts and work with the best in every field, from teams to former players, from luxury hotels to luxury transportation, with an unbeatable attention to detail to ensure our customers are always our number 1 priority.  I'm able to say that not only would I recommend these trips but I'd actually buy them myself!!

Josh & debbie buch, 2023 us open.

It was absolutely amazing. The trip was very well organized. The hotel was great and its location just wonderful. The tickets to the US Open were just perfect. The guidance and explanation, and assistance by Michael and Jessica were perfect. We just had the best of time.

Anne & David Krug

2023 wimbledon.

This was our 2nd trip we have booked with Mac Sports travel. Roland Garros last year and Wimbledon this year. Both were amazing! The personal touch Michael and his team give make the trip a seamless experience. I cannot say enough how great our trip was. Will definitely be booking again for future tournaments.

Jan & Alison Hanshaft

Five Stars all the way! My wife and I had Wimbledon on our bucket list, planning to do this only once, but after the experience that MAC Sports Travel provided, we will be doing many more July trips to London. Michael, Jessica and his team provided any type of support, assistance or recommendations that you would need. The hotel is in the perfect location in Chelsea to get to the tournament, into the city or airport all by the tube system. Wonderful Breakfasts, nice clean rooms, great pubs and restaurants all within walking distance to hotel. Thank you for a wonderful trip. We are sorry it ended so soon. Jan and Alison

Charlie and Amy Thorne

2023 french open.

Amy and I had an absolutely fantastic experience with Michael and his team at Mac Sports Travel! We attended our first French Open and Mac made it a 5 Star experience for us with transport from and to CDG airport, wonderful hotel accommodations, excellent tickets at Roland Garros, special welcome and tasting event at a local restaurant AND a great tour of Paris. Having him and his team on site gave us an extra level of comfort and security knowing that they would be there to look after us. We’re looking forward to our next destination trip with them!

2023 laver cup, dulce goddard.

We just returned from our trip to Paris arranged by Mac Sports Travel. My sister and I are big Tennis fans and we love to see Rafael Nadal play in person maybe for the last time. We arranged a trip to Roland Garros from Miami and used Mac Sports Travel. We chose them because of the wonderful reviews we read about the company and they did not disappoint. Mac Sports was a joy to work with, very professional and knowledgeable from beginning to the end. We rate them10 out of 10, They took care of everything with ease, from airport transfers, to the choice of hotel, to the welcome dinner/ met with the team and our group, to the incredible seats we received which included hospitality suites at Roland Garros. They accommodated our request to see Moulin Rouge and was happy they even went with us to the dinner and show. The tour of Paris/cruise on the Seine is an icing on the cake. We really enjoyed this trip because of the Mac Sports team headed by Michael and his 3 angels: Jessica, Neil and Julia.. We felt special and safe throughout our stay, they definitely earned our business. We highly recommend Mac Sports and intend to use them again to go to Australia open in 2024.
