Sports & Activities Tours

Ireland is a sportsman's paradise - from croquet to scuba diving, the Irish Experience is unique, memorable and delightful. Some of the most popular sports are fishing, golfing, riding and cycling , but whatever your interest we can call on experts in almost any sport to help make your holiday better than you ever dreamt possible!

For the fisherman, Ireland offers miles of salmon filled rivers, rich deep sea fishing waters, lakes where trout leap for the may fly or in whose dark depths lurk mighty pike. We can provide access to some of the best private beats and finest pools. We can provide you with a ghillie who will lead to legendary fish when others have given up and retreated to a wayside bar, a bar where you can later go to boast of your catch and join in the fun and singing. We offer accommodation in hotels and manor houses, from comfortable to luxurious, with rod rooms and drying rooms and cold stores capable of holding even the largest catch. We can also offer self catering cottages and houses in the heart of some of the best fisheries in the country, where the truly expert can cast from their bedroom window.

Cyclists will love the empty lanes and stunning scenery. From easy to arduous, we have a range of itineraries. They include magical gardens, massive castles, mysterious forest and mighty mountains. Accommodation can range from simple farmhouse to luxury hotel and a luggage van will transport your baggage (and you and your bicycle if you tire before the day is over).

For the rider we offer trekking holidays through wild mountainous countryside, along golden seashores or through romantic woods and parkland on the Irish Draught Horses for which the country is so famous. We can arrange suitable trips for riders of all degrees of experience. Or why not give your horse a holiday too and bring him with you - we can arrange a trip with accommodation at manor houses with stabling and grooms. During the winter there is limited availability for experienced riders who would like to experience the thrill of an Irish hunting holiday.
