What about organized tour groups to go to the 2016 IIHF World Championship?

There must be an organized your group to take fans to France and/or Germany to see the games right? You pay an upfront fee and they take care of the travel, hotels, and maybe a shuttle to the games?

I know there are enough hockey fans in Canada (and in the USA too) to do a tour like this so what kind of tours like this are there?

I know of this one for the World Juniors in Finland. I'm sure there are others.

Thanks for that. I'm sure there must be one or more for the big tourney in France and Germamy!

i agree, be nice for there to be a tour group to these events, would increase attendance as well.

Sorry, next year it's in Russia right? Either way there must be some organized tours for hockey fans that can take us there you know?

As for as Canada goes I've only heard of tours for the World Juniors.

I actually don't know any Canadian who has gone to Europe just for the WHC.

DASH Tours has run WJC overseas trips for many years. Am pretty sure he has done World Championship tours in the past as well.

The guy that runs it is quite a character, the Team Canada superfan. Click on the "about us" section of their website and you'll probably recognize him. LOL
