It is not a question as to 'if' you are going to
enjoy a European Golf Trip...
The questions are 'when and how'?
At The Golf Group we have the answers....
The Golf Group provides the programs to make your
European Golf Trip a reality. To play the great
courses of Ireland and Scotland one does need to
plan ahead. Often the tee times you are looking for
may have to be requested a year in advance. And we
know it is hard to get your golfing gang to commit
to anything a year in advance. That is why we have
developed an exciting program to turn your idea for
a European Golf Trip into a reality. The Golf Trip
to Ireland and/or Scotland is on almost every
golfers Wish List. Unfortunately, for some that is
exactly where it stays. At The Golf Group we have
created a planning process that will assist you
getting this trip off your “wish list” and on to
“looking forward to list”. So many times the
best laid plans for such a trip fall apart as it is
difficult to get the group to commit to something so
vague and so far out in the future. To address these
problems The Golf Group has created a planning
process that is designed to get potential players
familiar with all aspects of the trip months in
advance of the deadline for actually committing to
the trip.
Let The Golf Group assist you in planning this
adventure....
Our European Golf Trip Program
Our European Golf Trip Program has become a very
popular tool to help groups get organized in a
timely manner for their European Golf Trip. Here's
how it works...
-
Tell us what you have in
mind. Number of players, target dates, area,
must play courses and budget.
-
We will design an itinerary
based on your preferences. This itinerary will
be posted on a personalized trip website.
-
You can direct possible trip
participants to the website to get familiar with
the trip, the dates, the cost, etc.
-
The website will ask for
input on all facets of the trip and will ask
viewers to submit a form that indicates their
interest level.
-
The website will also let the
viewers know that there is a date on which we
will be asking for commitments for
participation.
-
Responses are logged and
interested parties are kept up to date with trip
details and reminded of upcoming registration
deadlines.
-
When you reach your
Registration Date participants will be asked for
a down payment to confirm their spot.
–What
you will find is that we will be able to
compile a list of possible participants and
rank them by their level of interest.
–The
possible participants will have a great
heads up in regard to the trip as it
concerns home, work and budget.
•Many
times date conflicts can be avoided just by
having the trip tentatively on their
calendar.
–When
the time comes to commit—you will get a
number that will sign up immediately because
they have been thinking about this for
plenty of time.
–Once
that happens—the rest of the slots will fill
up very quickly because players will see
that there is a limited number of spots and
also will be able to see who has committed.
As you know it is always, “who else is
going.”
–Once
you fill, start a waiting list—inevitably
when you plan something this far in
advance—someone will have to cancel. The
wait list makes it easy to keep the trip
full.
The program gives possible
participants plenty of time to plan along with a
definite decision date. It also allows us to file
tee time requests in a timely manner resulting in
the best chance of getting on the courses of your
choice.
Many
consider The European Golf Trip to be a Milestone
Trip--and indeed it is. The good news is that you
can decide which milestone it commemorates!
You CAN do this!

Our Services
Tee times at the
top courses can be very difficult to obtain. We will make
application and monitor the process to assist you in booking
the courses you want to play. We can also assist you in
course selection and alternates.
We will design
your itinerary to move you logically to the courses you want
to play and at the same time allow for as much sightseeing
as desired. Depending on your needs we can place you in
central locations where you can access many courses without
changing accommodations or we can keep you on the move
allowing you to take in as much of the country as time
allows.
From Castles to B
& B's and everything in between, we can recommend a perfect
blend of the accommodations to suit your needs.

Chauffeur or
Self Drive Options

driver has become quite popular on these golf trips. The
driver is expert on directions and serves well as a travel
and tour guide as well.

believe that renting a car or van and driving on the left
hand side of the road is part of the adventure.
Whatever option
you choose, we will take care of the logistics.
