Our air department is available to talk through your air travel options.

Today play Donegal . More commonly known as Murvagh the course is delightfully located on a peninsula in Donegal Bay and isolated from the rest of the world, Donegal is an excellent mixture of inland and links golf. The course forms two loops of nine holes as opposed to the traditional ''out and back''. Please note caddies are not available but a very limited supply of golf carts are available for hire. Certain restrictions may apply, please advise your Golf Travel Specialist.

Day 3 Narin & Portnoo

Play today at Narin & Portnoo . The course is situated in the beautiful seaside resort of Portnoo in South West Donegal. It is considered to be one of the finest natural links courses in Ireland, and is certainly one of the most scenic with views out to Aranmore Island and Croghy Head. Under new ownership in 2018 the links has been upgraded with the project entrusted to Gil Hanse and his team. The changes being implemented will elevate Narin & Portnoo into one of the finest links courses in the country.

Today play Rosapenna - St Patrick's Links . Designed by Tom Doak and opened in 2021. A sprawling links that is destined to become a modern great. It sits on the most magnificent piece of links land, west coast of Ireland scenery, with enough variety in dimension to present a real diversity of golf holes. The routing takes golfers on a journey through huge dunes, to high above Sheephaven Bay, along the coast, then back over some more gentle dunes. With plenty of width and an eclectic mix of naturalised bunkers, the course is destined to become a must play.

Frequently Asked Questions

To help you decide, we've compiled answers to common questions about our Custom Tours. Curious about itineraries, accommodations, or logistics? Our FAQs cover it all. For personalized advice, our Golf Travel Experts are ready to assist.

How far in advance should I book a trip to ensure best availability?

Our best advice is to decide on your preferred trip and confirm the dates as soon as possible, for everything is a component of availability. If you are traveling during high season, the golf courses can have significant demand and sooner we are able to submit your groups request for tee times and similarly to the hotels, the likelihood of securing your exact, preferred schedule is enhanced.
What is the optimum size of a group?

Every group has different dynamics but we believe that groups of 8 travelers are more preferred, for two reasons; (1) a group of 8 people remains small enough that everyone can interact with each other easily and (2) in terms of access to golf tee times and hotel arrangements we have found this size of group to be the easiest to accommodate. Of course, we are delighted to assist with groups of 2 to 150 travelers.
When is the best time to travel?
It varies by destination. High season (for golf) is as follows;
- Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, France & Italy
  April – October.
  During the summer season you will enjoy the best possible chance of good weather. However Britain does experience changeable, unpredictable weather year round and it is therefore best to anticipate.
- New Zealand & Australia
  September – April
  Peak season is December - February/March
- Spain, Portugal & South Africa
  January - December
  South Africa is attractive all year round. Many prefer to visit from October - March. The summer months in the south of Spain and Portugal can be very hot and the condition of the courses deteriorates. Therefore the peak seasons in Spain and Portugal would be April – June & September – November.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Do I need travel insurance?
When will I receive final travel information?
Can I ship my golf clubs ahead of me to my destination?
