Concluding in the upmarket resort of Umhlanga Rocks on Durban's northern beaches, guests can enjoy the 4* trappings of the Marriott Protea Hotel that overlooks the ocean across the game weekend.

With match tickets and game day hospitality included, the trip also offers the chance for fans to experience live schoolboy rugby. MSG's U18 rugby tourists - Warwick School - take on the famed Durban Boys High School on the match day morning.

Following a much deserved rest day, experience unique historical sightseeing through a Boer War battlefields tour in Rorke's Drift and Isandlwana. As an optional extra, this guided tour sits inside a three-day safari experience at Nambiti Game Reserve in Kwa-Zulu Natal, a park located 2.5h drive inland from Durban (£492.20pp for package extension).
