Cara Group Travel continue its long-running partnership with the Friendship Four to create special and authentic experiences for groups traveling to Ireland and Northern Ireland for Norther America travelers who seek something more genuine and memorable, beyond the typical inauthentic trips offered by today’s DIY social media travel agents.

Cara Group Travel serves as the ground operator during the tournament, organizing travel arrangements for each hockey team and their support staff. They also provide family, alumni and fan travel packages for fans who want to travel to Belfast to support their teams.

We believe that travel is more than movement, it’s meaning. That the best experiences are shared. That authenticity matters. And that the most memorable journeys happen when you travel with a friend by your side.

Travel is better with friends!
