Itinerary
Day 1: Arrive in Shannon
Arrive in Shannon, and pick up your rental vehicle or meet your driver guide. Drive to your County Clare hotel for a 3-night stay. Tour the majestic Cliffs of Moher this afternoon! Soaring 700 feet above the crashing Atlantic Ocean below, they are a sight to behold! Settle in to your new surroundings this evening and enjoy a pint of Guinness and some traditional Irish music in a local pub!
Day 2: Play Lahinch Golf Club
Situated on the west coast of Clare and naturally shaped by ocean and dunes, Lahinch is Ireland’s insiders favorite. Created by Old Tom Morris in 1892 and transformed by Alister Mackenzie in 1927.
Day 3: Play Doonbeg
This extraordinary new links site features grass-covered dunes rising nearly one hundred feet above the white capped Atlantic.
Day 4: Play Tralee
Perched on a cliff overlooking the beautiful Dingle Peninsula, Tralee is one of the most stunning links courses in the world offering many dramatic holes that test the skills of golfers at every level. Designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay. Drive to your Killarney, County Kerry based hotel for a 4-night stay.
Day 5: Play Ballybunion Old Course
Herbert Warren Wind said it was “…nothing less than the finest seaside course I have ever seen”. One of the finest links courses in the world and in Tom Watson’s opinion; “the graveyard near the first tee gives the golfer an inclination of the sense of mystique and timelessness that is to follow”. Founded 1893.
Day 6: Play Waterville
This stunning course was fondly dubbed the “Magnificent Monster” by Sam Snead and is located on the Ring of Kerry and buffeted by peninsular winds. Jack Mulcahy and Eddie Hackett transformed this rugged links land into an elegant championship course. Waterville is a favorite of Tiger Woods.
Day 7: Play Old Head
Known as the Pebble Beach of Ireland, in many ways Old Head is far more stunning. Set on a peninsula with its own micro-climate and ocean views from every hole, every golfer wants to play here at least once.
Day 8: Depart Ireland
Drive to Shannon Airport for your flight back home. Say goodbye to your driver guide or drop off your rental van. Until next time, Slan abhaile!
