Bonding trip

Swann is turning his attention to a four-day bonding trip with the Ashes squad and management.
"The players won't be told the destination until we arrive at the airport. I just hope we're going to Las Vegas or the Munich Beer Festival."
Meanwhile, Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi called the scandal-laden tour the "most difficult" of his 14-year international career as the team staged a low-key return home after four gruelling months away.
Afridi said: "It was tough because of the controversies and became very difficult to cope with, because every time we went out of the hotel people passed remarks against us."

Please explain to me what they mean by "bonding trip" here.
