About Us

Bravo Sports Tours was built on a simple idea: sports travel should do more than take a team somewhere new. It should bring people closer together, open doors to new experiences, and create memories that last long after the trip is over.

A Legacy of Travel, Competition, and Connection

That vision started with our founder, John-Christopher Salvatore. A Connecticut native and former soccer player at the University of Connecticut, John has spent more than three decades creating meaningful sports travel experiences for teams of all ages and levels. What began with two groundbreaking tours in the early 1990s quickly became a lifelong passion and the foundation for Bravo Sports Tours. Over the course of his career, he has organized more than 400 international tours for organizations, colleges, and teams around the world.

In 1992, John led the first-ever American women’s soccer team to South Africa, creating an experience that was meaningful both on and off the field. Soon after, he made history again by taking youth soccer teams to Cuba for friendly matches with the Cuban Football Federation, giving players the opportunity to experience a destination and level of cultural exchange that very few teams had access to at the time. Those early tours helped shape the way Bravo operates to this day. They were about more than travel. They were about connection, competition, and creating experiences people would never forget.

More than 30 years later, that same passion still drives everything we do.

Today, Bravo Sports Tours creates custom sports travel experiences for youth, collegiate, and club teams, as well as families, supporters, and organizations looking for well-planned, meaningful travel built around sport. From international competition tours to tournaments, training camps, and custom group experiences, every Bravo trip is designed around the goals of the people taking it.

We blend quality competition, thoughtful planning, and memorable experiences into every itinerary. From flights and accommodations to transportation, scheduling, sightseeing, and fundraising support, we handle the details so coaches, athletes, and families can focus on the experience itself.

The teams that travel with Bravo come home with more than great photos and passport stamps. They come back stronger as teammates, more confident as competitors, and more connected through the shared experience of traveling together. They have the opportunity to compete in new environments, experience different styles of play, explore incredible destinations, and create memories that stay with them for years to come.

At its core, Bravo has always been about creating meaningful experiences through sport and giving teams opportunities they will carry with them for a lifetime.

At Bravo Sports Tours, we do more than plan trips. We create experiences that bring teams together, broaden perspectives, and remind people why they fell in love with their sport in the first place.
