17 golf tourism companies participate in a workshop with Irish tour operators
MARCH 2014
From 17th to 20th April, six representatives of Irish travel agencies that specialise in golf tourism visited the Costa Brava on a familiarisation trip to discover at first hand the services and facilities of several golf courses and hotels in the destination, and to take part in the first specific workshop aimed exclusively at the members of the Costa Brava Pirineu de Girona Golf Marketing Club.
The representatives of specialised Irish agencies, invited by the Costa Brava Girona Tourist Board and the Spanish Tourist Office in Dublin, visited the Costa Brava Golf Club, the Empordà Golf Club, the Girona Golf Club and the PGA Golf Catalunya, along with several hotels. They also took part in several complementary activities such as a wine tasting and a workshop and tasting at the Espai del Peix gastronomic facility.
During their stay in the destination, the Tourist Board organised a workshop that brought together the Irish travel agents from the companies Golf Holidays, Fly for Golf, King Travel, Woodbrook Golf Club, Lee Travel and Tullys Travel, and 17 tourism companies that are members of the Costa Brava Pirineu de Girona Golf Marketing Club, promoted by the Costa Brava Girona Tourist Office. The marketing club currently has 40 members, including golf clubs, par-3 golf courses, hotels, rural accommodation establishments, inbound travel agencies and transport companies.
