Golf Breaks in Ireland

Transport Options for Your Next Trip

Golf Transport is an often over-looked aspect of a golfing trip to Ireland, yet it is just as important as the golf courses and accommodation. Especially with the scenic, country roads in Ireland, the last thing you want is to be late for your tee time because of a problem with your vehicle.


When it comes to transport options, groups can choose between a self-drive vehicle or a chauffeur-driven one, with each having its own advantages and drawbacks. The choice often depends on personal preferences and the size of the group.

For smaller groups ranging from 2 to 4 golfers, the self-drive option is often recommended, allowing drivers to take turns and usually sufficing for the group. On the other hand, for larger groups of 6 or more golfers, the chauffeur-driven vehicle is advised, not only for its cost-effectiveness but also for the added comfort and the freedom to relax without worrying about directions.


Finally, there is the helicopter option. This option diminishes larger commute distances to courses, which can offer a whole number of opportunities when planning your itinerary.

Below are a Number of Your Transport Options

Helicopter

Helicopter is quite an extravagant option, but it can be the answer to some logistical issues in your itinerary. It can cover great distances which allows for a wider catchment area of golf courses.

Chauffeur for 12-28 Golfers

Upwards on 12 golfers, we recommend a full-size coach. This is to allow for luggage, personal space as well golf bags. The last thing you want on your trip to Ireland is to be squeezed onto coach and have no comfort.

Chauffeur for 6-12 Golfers

With a larger group, ranging from 6-12 golfers, we use a Taurus vehicle. Not only does the chauffeur option make more sense financially for a larger group, our vehicles include tables for the journeys along with fridges to store beverages.

Chauffeur for 4 Golfers

Often it is more cost effective for groups of 4 golfers to go with the self drive option, but the chauffeur option is still available. For this option, we often go with a Mercedes V-Class which is an incredibly spacious and luxurious vehicle for this group size.

Self Drive for 3/4 Golfers

For groups over 2 golfers, a Volkswagen Caravelle is our preferred vehicle of choice. It has more than enough space for luggage and clubs. It can accommodate 6 golfers with very light luggage if you would like to keep with a self-drive option.

Self-Drive for 2 Golfers

Our preferred vehicle for a self-drive trip for 2 golfers is the Volkswagen Jetta. It has more than enough luggage space for suitcases and clubs. It is a rather small vehicle as well which is ideal for taking those narrow country roads.
