Itinerary

Day 1
Arrive in Ireland
Spend your first 2 nights at Old Head in Kinsale on the south coast of Ireland

Day 2
Play Old Head Course
Old Head incorporates a total of eighteen holes, nine of which play alongside the cliff tops, providing an exhilarating test of golf and concentration for players of all standards and categories. The vagaries of the Atlantic winds will ensure that the course provides a fresh challenge each day.

Day 3
Continue to lively Killarney for a 3 night stay at a 5-star hotel

Play Tralee Course
This Arnold Palmer designed course, the first in Europe, is set amidst the beautiful scenery associated with the Kerry region. This challenging course starts with a relatively flat front nine, set on the cliff tops; the second nine by contrast are built on and about the noteworthy dunes.

Day 4
Play Waterville Course
Although it does not have the history of Ballybunion, this majestic links course perched on Ballinskelligs Bay has become accepted as one of the finest courses of its kind anywhere in the world. Long but not hilly, it is enjoyable to walk, with spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and Kerry Mountains. Each hole has individual characteristics and every club in the bag will be needed.

Day 5
Play Ballybunion Old Course
Undoubtedly, Ireland’s most famous golf course – a place of giant sand hills and deep valleys, this links course is a treat for the senses. Wildly beautiful and spectacularly located, when the wind lashes in from the Atlantic, this is not a place for the faint-hearted!

Day 6
Spend your final 2 nights at Trump Doonbeg

Play Trump Doonbeg Course
Greg Norman was commissioned to design this course, and every care was taken to consider the preservation of the delicate ecosystem that exists around the dunes when designing the course. On first visit to the site of the course in Doonbeg, Norman remarked that “the site was made by God for playing golf.

Day 7
Play Lahinch Old Course
Lahinch is steeped in history and the features of this famous course are carved out of natural terrain. The Old Course is the permanent home of the South of Ireland Open Amateur Championship (first played in 1895). This course also regularly hosts the Irish National Amateur and Professional Championships.
