August 2–9, 2014

From $4,060 for golfers / $2,885 for non-golfers (plus airfare)

Ireland has a proud golfing history stretching back to the 1800s. In this most beautiful of countries, its golf courses are a connoisseur’s paradise. From the southwest to the northeast, the mention of its worldfamous courses conjures up a dream vacation. Come with us to the Emerald Isle and play Tralee (Arnold Palmer: “I may have designed the first nine, but surely God designed the last nine.”); Ballybunion, (consistently rated among the world’s top courses); Waterville, (ranked by Golf World UK as the 13th best in Britain and Ireland); Old Head* (beautifully and spectacularly located on a promontory jutting out into the Atlantic Ocean); and Lahinch (the “St. Andrews of Ireland,” a golfing Mecca for over a century). These are five of the most wonderful golf courses anyone could ask to play in the space of a week. Now it’s possible, and easy! Non-golfer traveling companions will enjoy a sightseeing program. We are very pleased to recommend this trip, whether you’re a scratch golfer or a weekender you are guaranteed to have the trip of a lifetime!
