Few destinations offer the enduring charm and dramatic scenery of Ireland when it comes to golf. Let the local experts at Premier Irish Golf Tours handle the planning so you can focus on playing some of the country’s most celebrated courses. Their Southwest Golf Tour is a strong example: a sample itinerary features rounds at Galway Bay Golf Club, Lahinch Golf Club, Tralee Golf Club, Ballybunion Golf Club, Old Head and Waterville Golf Links.
The Southwest Golf Tour includes seven nights in deluxe accommodations, six rounds of golf, a professional driver for the duration of the trip and daily Irish or continental breakfast.
