Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Signed up for a competition Lyons organised in kerry over three days, mainly due to the cost. It was substantially better value than had I played the three courses individually (even with 3 nights accomodation included). The courses were exceptional and the level of organisation and planning way above any expectations I had. The guys running it clearly put a lot of work into it and pulled out all the stops to make sure me and my playing partners had the best experience. Would highly recommend and will be signing up to events in the future for sure

I can’t begin to say enough about the level of execution by Lyon’s Links. Colm and Joe had every possible detail covered, including contacting us the day before the trip to see if we wanted to amend our golf schedule to play in better weather conditions. We were welcomed at the airport by Colm and our chauffeur Colm who was basically our private tour guide for the whole trip. He knew everything! He even caddied for the group at several courses providing expert advice tailored to all of our golf games (we range from golf pro to 20 handicap). We were even met by Joe when we arrived for our last two nights in Lahinch who then spent the evening with us, oh by the way, he drove 90 minutes each way to do that. I have recommended Lyon’s Links to anyone i hear even considering a trip to Ireland or Scotland, and will use them for all of my future trips to the region. As a golf professional who has been fortunate to experience the highest level of service at some of the top courses in the world, I can honestly say that Lyon’s Links is among the best!

Thank you Tcgolfer17.
You guys were a treat to work with. We are glad you enjoyed your time in Ireland. We are lucky to have such great clients and indeed suppliers. The golf courses and hotels, in Ireland, particularly the South West region are very experienced in providing hospitality to golfers. It was my pleasure to meet you guys before you departed for home. Indeed, Colm and I guide some of the larger groups but also endeavor to meet every client who travel with us on a couple of occasions during their trip.
We very much appreciate your review and look forward to helping you guys and your family and friends in organizing future trips for you.
Until again, kindly yours,
Joe

The Lyons Links Kingdom Cup 2022 was a thoroughly enjoyable golfing experience. Joe, Cian, and the Lyons Links team made the occasion feel unique, and exciting for club golfers, and the tournament was run professionally from start to finish, with lots of fun along the way. A truly amazing experience at two wonderful golf clubs, Waterville and Dooks. I would highly recommend Lyons Links Golf Trips to any golfer looking for a great golfing experience at some of Ireland's best golf courses.

Joe organised an off season weekend of golf for 14 of us at the St Andrews playing the New Course, the Jubilee Course & the Old Course. And what a fantastic weekend it was from start to finish. Our clubs could all be left in individual lockers at the course locker rooms where there were driers provided to dry your golf clothes if needed. The hotel was a 400m walk (thru the iconic 18th fairway). As well as playing with us Joe ( and losing money) organised our meals and recommended some great bars in what is a really vibrant university town.
At the golf course Joe had a guy that would deal with any request we had hassle free whether it big or small and it all added up to being a most memorable weekend and one I would highly recommend to anyone working on their bucket list.

Thank you Grogan145,
I wish I could take credit for the whole trip, however, it is always the group themselves that create the best experiences. We are just happy to facilitate the trip and try to make sure everything goes to plan. I must also acknowledge the efforts made by our Transport providers, hotel provider, and the St Andrews Links Trust for helping out so much.
As I mentioned to one of your group members, I'll be looking to renegotiate the handicapping the next time around. All joking aside it was a treat to be invited to play with you guys and made it a very memorable weekend for me. New friendships forged and I'm already looking forward to our next game.
Kindly Yours,
Joe

By far the best golf trip I’ve ever been on. Lyons Links and their employees were so incredibly accommodating throughout the trip and I recommend them to anyone and everyone that’s looking for a phenomenal golf trip (not only for the golf but the overall experience). Thanks so much Ross and Colm!

Hi Dan,
It was great to meet you over in St.Andrews and grab some lunch.
Delighted the trip lived up to expectations and special that you got to play the Old Course the day before it closed for the Open.
Hope to see you over on this side of the pond in the near future.
Kind regards,
Colm

My name is Lorcan Morris and I am a Full Time PGA Tour caddie for Ben Taylor. I have caddied for the best players in the world for over a decade and have worked and carried at every Major Championship. I travel all over the world annually and there is no better company to book your 5 star Irish golf trips with. Founder Joe Lyons has been for the best part of 2 decades one of Ireland’s top ranked amateur players so with his pedigree on the Links it is no surprise that Lyons Links does the job they do with the trips. I can choose any company in the world to do my Irish and Scottish golf trips with but I only use Lyons Links as they are the industry leader in luxury, efficiency and professionalism. I can’t say enough good things about my experience with them and you would be remiss not to use them on your next golf trip to Europe.

I cannot say enough about Lyons Links. We just returned from a 9 day 7 round trip in the South West of Ireland and from the moment we first made contact with Colm the service was above and beyond any trip we organized in the past. We played Ballybunion, Adare Manor, Tralee, Old Head, Waterville, Doonbeg and Lahinch.
Every special request we had from tee times, to restaurant reservations etc were handled without fuss. Our bus driver Colm (who we had in 2017 on a previous trip) was the star of the show again. He routinely stopped at random pubs to ensure all our group got the full experience. We even had him play golf with us 2 days as one of our group had to leave early. One of the lads even had an ace at Ballybunion. I honestly could not say enough about this company. Colm X2, Joe and Cian. Thank you for everything. We will be back again... Kenny

If you are booking a golf trip to Ireland or Scotland, I would highly, highly, highly recommend Lyons Links. They look after every detail, are delighted to help, always have a smiling face and just get what golfers are looking for on these trips. They have organized three trips for me (including handling all the logistics of a 24 person, multi-location trip) and will do all my future ones. These guys are the BEST!

Colm and his team arranged our recent golf trip to Lahinch. Apart from arranging the most magnificent weather, we played stunning golf courses over two days. Colm arranged everything including hotels and eating out - top class! Nothing was left to chance in a touch of glass in providing our group with nice token teeing off gifts (golf tees and water) - 5 star service - thanks Colm
