Rugby Travel Ireland Reviews 

Everything was on time and organised well no waiting or any problems

Great tour operator, especially for clubs. they had all bases covered and everything ran like clockwork. Alex was a great addition/host and couldn't recommend highly enough.

We recently went to Paris with RTI and I would highly recommend them. Excellent customer service from the time of booking and the staff on the ground at the airport and on the trip were excellent, very friendly and informative, We didn’t have to think of anything. The flights & transfers were very comfortable and the hotel was excellent. Check in was also made very easy for us with the RTI rep there on hand. I would highly recommend travelling with RTI. The only thing wrong with the trip was the result but we can’t blame RTI for that!

This our third training camp in three years with Darragh, Paul, Siadbh and RTI. As always they are a pleasure to deal with. They are always available to help in any way needed. They are professional, courteous and great company. Brown’s remains our favorite destination for training. Everything is laid out so well and it just makes everything so easy. Many thanks all.

This was our third year going to Browns for Training Camp with Rugby Travel Ireland. Darragh and Paul have been constants on all of these trips and I cannot speak highly enough of both men for their constant good humour, professionalism and 'can do' spirit. Nothing is ever a hassle and all questions/requests are dealt with post haste.
This was best exemplified last week with two unexpected occurences. Firstly, when the original match referee had to be replaced because of injury, Darragh was able to contact people in the Portuguese Union to facilitate using Paolo Duarte, an experienced international referee for our games and secondly, when one of our players had to attend hospital to be scanned for a leg injury, Paul brought the player and one of our teachers to the local hospital to get sorted. Two very cogent examples of the hands on service RTI provide on tours like this.
To conclude, we will continue to use RTI for the foreseeable future and would highly recommend their organisation to any rugby club/school planning to go on a tour like this. Top class !!

We'd another great experience bringing a school group to alicante for a training camp. Everything ran smoothly, facilities were good, food was excellent and the lads enjoyed themselves as well as getting plenty of rugby in.

The professionalism Darragh and Paul provided throughout the trip to Browns sports resort in Portugal was second to none. Not only did they sort any minor problems we encountered, they offered friendships which allowed us to get on really well which made the trip memorable and very enjoyable.

Birr RFC rugby trip to La Rochelle was nothing short of extraordinary! From start to finish, every aspect of the experience was seamless and unforgettable, thanks to the meticulous planning of our travel company and the outstanding guidance of our tour leader. Rugby Travel Ireland took care of every detail, accommodation to transfers and match tickets. Their communication was impeccable, ensuring we always knew what to expect and when. The trip was well-paced, with free time to explore the beautiful city of La Rochelle, as well as organised excursions to Macif Parc training ground ( organised by our tour guide Anna Caplice )Where we got to experience first hand the rugby culture. I think this was an unforgettable experience for both young and old . Whether it was dining at local restaurants or soaking up the atmosphere around the harbour, everything was taken care of with precision and care.
Anna Caplice Our Tour Guide was an absolute gem. From the moment we arrived in La Rochelle, she made us feel welcome and at ease. Her enthusiasm for both rugby and the region was infectious, and she ensured we were all taken care of every step of the way. Whether it was offering insight into the city’s history or helping us navigate the logistics of our game day experience, Anna was always there with a smile and a solution to any challenge. She even organised a fantastic experience of the captains Run where we met players, our very own Ronan O Gara and Donnacha Ryan . Meeting Ronan O'Gara and Donnacha Ryan in La Rochelle was an unforgettable experience. Their passion for the game and insights into rugby were truly inspiring. It was a privilege to witness their dedication and expertise firsthand."
Our fixture against Surgères RFC was an amazing experience. The atmosphere was electric, and the passion of the players and parents was incredible. It's a place where rugby truly comes alive and hospitality was outstanding.
La Rochelle itself is a fantastic destination for rugby lovers. The town's passion for the sport is evident, and the local fans were welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere at the Stade Marcel-Deflandre was electric, and the experience of watching a live match in such a historic venue was unforgettable. Not only did we enjoy thrilling rugby, but we also had the chance to explore the picturesque streets, sample delicious French cuisine, and even got time to experience the night life in Mc Nulty’s Irish Pub which was memorable.
This rugby trip to La Rochelle was an incredible experience, and we can't thank Rubgy Travel Ireland and Anna Caplice enough for making it all happen. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, and we left with unforgettable memories. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique rugby getaway!
Thank you again to Anna and the entire team for such an unforgettable experience!

Just back from yet another fantastic trip with RTI (despite the result). Everything was so well organised from arrival at Dublin Airport to our return. Have been using RTI since the LIONS in 2013. Totally recommend. Nothing is too much for Mark, Cathal and all the team.

Easy to get in contact with

RTI is an outstanding company. Their attention to detail is second to none—no stone is left unturned. We recently hosted Ballynahinch's senior team in Boston for an exhibition game, and RTI played a key role in making it all happen. From start to finish, RTI were incredibly knowledgeable and professional. Daragh and Cathal did a fantastic job, ensuring that both the Ballynahinch RFC team and the NCR All-American team were well looked after throughout the entire experience.
Whether you're traveling to the United States or from the U.S. abroad, I couldn’t recommend RTI highly enough. Their expertise, reliability, and commitment to quality make all the difference. You will not be disappointed. Looking forward to working with them again on the next one!
