"Memories of China will stay with us forever."
"Awesome tour. Loved it. Loved the people and still do."
"Overall the tour was excellent. It was a great experience to be able to play futsal for an Australian team overseas. It was also a learning experience to learn a different way of living, very cultural and the history was interesting. Playing against teams at different schools was a great experience."

Australian DalPonte Vikings China Futsal Tours 
Since 2005 Vikings International Tours have been sending Australian DalPonte Vikings teams to visit our friends in Chengdu, China. Vikings were the first foreign futsal teams to tour the ancient country of 1.2 billion people and are always warmly welcomed. Our tours past success means we have also been invited back for 2007.
Beginning with an inaugural 16 Boys tour in 2005 and recently welcoming back the inaugural Girls tour of October 2006 the China tour is fast becomming one of our most exciting, memorable and fullfilling futsal tours.
Incorporating a days sightseeing in Beijing you can now also experience the world famous Great Wall of China, Forbidden City and Tienanmen Square before continuing onto Chengdu where you are based for the duration of the tour.
After a two day training camp in Brisbane you'll depart on a Thursday. We change planes at Singapore and then arrive in Beijing for a full day of sightseeing before catching a late night flight to Chengdu.
Chengdu , with a population of 13 million , is the capital of the province of Sichuan , which has a population of 98 million. It is located at the foot of the Himalayan Mountains.
During your stay you'll play a futsal tournament and many more games against Chinese regional teams and schools. The players are always warmly welcomed and end up with sore hands from signing autographs as well as sore bodies from all the training and playing enjoyed by all! In amongst games, training and tournaments we make sure there is also plenty of sightseeing to experience also.
The sightseeing is breathtaking. Visit the BIG BUDDHA, see the Panda Centre where Pandas are being bred in captivity, the ancient city which is the excavations of the oldest known civilisation in the world, see the Buddists Monks at the Country Monastry, spend 2 days in the mountains of the Tibetan plateau seeing golden monkeys and pandas in the wild and spend Sunday in the peoples park, similar to our Dreamworld. And of course there is the shopping. China is very cheap and there are plenty of shops and markets.
Supporters and non players are welcome to take part and they are involved in all the activites the players are. If you want to extend your stay you are most welcome as Vikings futsal also has a travel agents licence and we can arrange all details.
