Your Ireland Golf Travel Experts-Born on the Links
As an Irish Golf Tour Operator, we don’t just book tee times; we share the insider knowledge that only comes from being lifelong golfers based in Ireland. Let us design your perfect Ireland golf trip with the expertise and personal touch that only locals can provide.
Our Story: Passion for Golf Adventures
Dunes Golf Travel began when two brothers from County Cork discovered their passion for links golf on Ireland’s rugged coastlines. After years of playing courses from Doonbeg to Royal County Down, competing in amateur tournaments, and traveling to Scotland’s historic links, Conor and Bobby realized they had accumulated knowledge that North American golfers desperately needed. As a locally-owned Irish golf tour operator, we’ve walked every fairway, tested every hotel, and built personal relationships with course managers across Ireland, Scotland, and England.
We understand what makes a golf trip truly unforgettable—it’s not just world-class courses (though we’ll get you on the best). It’s the perfectly-timed caddie joke on the 14th tee, the pub recommendation where locals actually drink, and the scenic route between courses that reveals Ireland’s hidden beauty. Whether you’re planning a luxury golf vacation to Ireland or a multi-country links adventure, our Irish golf travel company delivers the authentic, personalized experience that only local experts & Ireland Golf vacation specialists can provide.

Why Choose Dunes Golf Travel ?
Local Expertise
As an Irish golf tour operator based in County Cork, we live and breathe the courses we recommend. Conor and Bobby have played Lahinch in howling Atlantic winds, navigated the blind shots at Ballybunion, and experienced the magic of Portmarnock at sunrise. This firsthand knowledge sets us apart from overseas tour companies. We know which courses suit different skill levels, when to book to avoid crowds, and which local caddies will enhance your round. Our relationships with Ireland’s top golf courses, luxury hotels, and local guides ensure you receive preferential tee times and insider access that Ireland golf vacation packages from distant operators simply cannot match.
Personalized Service
When planning a golf trip to Ireland, choosing a locally-based tour operator makes all the difference. Unlike overseas agencies working from catalogs, we’re on the ground in Ireland year-round. Need a last-minute tee time change due to weather? We’re just a phone call away—in your time zone when you arrive. Want to know if Lahinch or Doonbeg plays better in September winds? We played both last month. Its small details like these that make Ireland Golf Tour Experts for our clients all around the world !

Lanny Viegut
Just home from a trip to The Eastcoast of Ireland with Dunes Golf Travel. The level of service from Conor & Bobby was incredible. This was a short notice trip and were still able to get us out on all the top courses around Dublin and their advice on accommodation in Dublin was fantastic as our hotel was the perfect location in the city centre. I will definetly be using Conor & Bobby for our next trip to Ireland. By far the best Irish Golf Tour Operator I’ve used
