do I make a reservation? |

Browse the site using it as a guide to decide on any particular golf courses,
hotels and transport you wish included in your golf tour. |
| 2. | a)
| Go to contact
us and
select either "Request a Quote" or "Call Me". OR |
| | b)
| Send an email outlining your golf tour requirements
(e.g. number of golfers/non-golfers, specific golf courses, preferred hotel grade,
mode of transport, etc.). OR | | | c) | Call
our office and speak to one of our Golf Travel Consultants on + 44 1334 478639. |
| 3. |
We will respond with a personalised itinerary and quotation. This will include,
where necessary, any adjustments and suggestions we have to make your tour complete. |
| 4. |
Once you have decided on your travel dates and are satisfied with your itinerary,
we will request a deposit of 30% of your tour cost. The balance of your tour is
payable 60 days prior to arrival. | In Ireland, many of the fine hotels are period buildings
and therefore have several different types of room. We strongly recommend booking
larger rooms and those with better views, which will unquestionably add to your
experience. We offer a range of vehicles, both self-drive and
with driver. For groups of 8 or more, we strongly recommend that you consider
hiring one of our customised luxury motor coaches for your tour. These vehicles
have been designed and built specifically to suit the needs of golfing groups.
For smaller groups (up to 4 people) also wishing to have a driver, we operate
a fleet of Mercedes Viano people carriers, specially designed with golf travel
in mind. All the vehicles we provide are spacious and
have ample room for luggage. For those in self-drive vehicles, we recommend you
limit yourself, where possible, to 1 suitcase, golf clubs in a soft case and hand
luggage.
Special Note: Over the years there has been an increase in
airlines losing luggage in transit. It is therefore advisable to make provision
for this i.e. travel with a small carry-on suitcase with essentials, including
any medication. Lost luggage should be reported to the airline at the airport
where you will be issued with a tracking code/ reference number. In these unfortunate
circumstances, it is important that you continue with your travel plans and enjoy
your vacation. Therefore our office is always happy to assist in tracing and retrieving
your missing items. Many of the golf courses
you will wish to play are private golf clubs and therefore have limited tee times
and restrictions on visitor play. Often demand outstrips supply, so it is never
too early to begin planning your golf tour. Most golf clubs allow
visitors to use their clubhouse facilities, including the locker rooms and dining
areas. Over the last decade, golf clubs have relaxed their dress codes. We would,
however, always recommend taking a pair of street shoes (not training shoes) as
you may be refused entry to all or part of the clubhouse without them. The green
fees at some golf courses include lunch and we will advise you of this prior to
travel.

are self-employed and supply can change on a daily basis. Caddy fees at the above
