Shea is an absolute professional and a great person to work with. He was super quick to respond to any questions I had in planning our golf trip, which were plenty. As an American, I would have been overwhelmed to have to drive through cities like Dublin myself, but Shea is super knowledgeable and punctual every time. He was also able to give us some great sightseeing and restaurant recommendations outside of our golf tee times. His van was very comfortable and big enough for our group of 8 with all of our clubs and luggage. I cannot recommend Shea and Deluxe Tours & Transfers enough for golf transportation and any other tours through Ireland. We will certainly be using him again for our next trip!

She’s was the most amazing Driver that went far and beyond just driving the 8 of us from place to place - airport to hotel, hotel to golf courses and back etc. He drove us to see sites around Londonderry/Derry and told us the best places to eat, drink and be merry…… he was right as all his tips turned out to be great. Loved his company and his knowledge of Northern Ireland. Would gladly recommend him and would definitely want him to help us out again if we ever get back there. Thanks Shea.

Great experience! Shea did not only provide great Transportation but he was also very knowledgeable about all the area we were traveling through. He even went out of his way to make sure we saw some important sites. Don't do any traveling unless you have Shea as your driver and guide.
