Stayed in the 5* Lough Eske Castle Hotel last Mon and Tues, thanks to Rory’s Travel club. A brilliant deal which included 2 nights B&B, 2 course dinner and a glass of Prosecco each. We had the loveliest stay! The food was amazing and the staff were so friendly… they couldn’t have done enough for us. We really enjoyed the spa too. The weather wasn’t the best but it didn’t dampen our stay as the hotel was warm and cosy. Would definitely recommend both the hotel and Rory’s Travel Club!!!

Booked a trip to nashville-Miami-Cruise around the Bahamas. What a brilliant 10days we had. The hotels were brilliant location and everyone we met were so nice and couldnt do enough.
On the Cruise all that booked this trip with Rory Travels were seated beside each other. We met soo many wonderful people and friends for life on this trip…well done to all at Rory Travels👏

Had a wonderful trip to Sri Lanka with a group of 39 people, some solos, some couples! It was the most fabulous trip! Highly recommend booking through RTC! Everything went smoothly and new friends were made! WhatsApp group set up where you can introduce yourself before the holiday! Lily from RTC kept in touch throughout the trip to make sure all was going well! And our guide Gayanz was fantastic! He looked after us all and made sure our needs were met! His knowledge of the country was invaluable! The driver and assistant were just lovely and very courteous! First class all round! Thank you RTC, Gayanz and team!

My friend and I were at the Rory’s Traitor night in the Radisson Blu Sligo last Saturday night.
We had a really great fun night.
The organiser and his team were such great fun and their interactions were great, making people relaxed.
I was lucky to be chosen as a Traitor and nobody at our table suspected that innocent looking me, could be a Traitor.
Great night, food and hotel staff.
I hope you do this event more often and maybe in Leinster as we told our friends how much fun it was and would love to attend if the event was more local to them in Leinster.
Well done Rory’s Travel.

I booked a last minute trip with Rory’s travel club for a hotel just an hour away from home foe me, my partner and baby to the Villa Rose hotel ballybofey, 5 stars for the offer and 5 stars for the hotel!!

Booked The River Lee Hotel through Rory’s Travel
E169 per night with breakfast and a bottle of champagne.
The hotel was absolutely fab, staff couldn’t do enough for you, room was beautiful, it had amazing views of Cork city & the River Lee.
Breakfast was amazing!!! anything you could think of was available (high quality produce)
It was also great to be able use leisure facilities swimming pool, jacuzzi, steam room so relaxing.
Highly recommend Rory’s Travel club for amazing offers, also the River Lee…looking forward to to returning and watching out for more offers with Rory’s Travel Club.
Well done all👌

I'm just back from trip to Slieve Russell Hotel Cavan with Rorys group trips had a great time. Food was great comfortable room and great to see so many light minded people make friends.

Went on the group trip to Torremolinos for Christmas... Had a great time, met some fabulous people. Stayed in the Sol Torremolinos Don Marco, basic but clean 😊 Breakfast was included and they had everything including an omelette and pancake station.. Hotel was right across the road from the All Blacks Pub where we based ourselves for the few days and the pub backed out onto the beach which was ideal for a few drinks outside. If you're into walking, we were only 30min walk along the prom to the Marina and up into Benalmedena, beautiful walk! To go up into the old town, we were a few mins walk from the lift to bring you up and the main train station is up there. We did a trip into Malaga (about 30 mins) and another trip to the shopping outlets (about 15 mins). Genuinely had a ball and will definitely head back there at some stage and will definitely go on another Rorys trip soon!!

Just back from Menlo Park Hotel, Galway. Great deal with RTC. First time using RTC will definitely be looking for more deals. Would highly recommend RTC.

I had a lovely night in Tulfarris hotel with RTC ….great value and great craic ..My second trip with RTC and planning my next trip abroad with them .
A fab way to travel and meet new people .

I was disappointed by Rory’s Travel Group’s decision to put the promotion of dog and horse racing to a public vote after already issuing an apology.

Animal welfare is not a matter of popularity. Ethical standards should guide company decisions, not public polling. By handling it this way, the company divided people rather than taking responsibility and showing clear ethical leadership.

This has affected my trust in the brand. I won't be renewing. Their handling of this whole situation speaks volumes of how unprofessional it is. In fact, only putting the poll on their page instead of emailing it was them hiding it. 

I would encourage the company to watch the relevant documentaries and engage with animal welfare charities to better understand the concerns involved.

Promoting a blood sport to make a quick €12 is absolutely deplorable!

This club has quite literally gone to the dogs.

Unsubscribed as have the rest of my family!

Disgusting!

I am not someone who leaves negative reviews, and in fact this is the first time I have felt compelled to do so. However, the response my daughter received from your admin team regarding Rory’s Travel Club’s promotion of greyhound racing has left me genuinely shocked and deeply disappointed.

My daughter initially reached out privately and respectfully via email, raising legitimate concerns about the well-documented abuse and exploitation associated with greyhound racing. The reply she received was dismissive, unprofessional, and demonstrated a concerning lack of education on the realities of this so-called “sport.” To imply that continuing to promote greyhound racing is acceptable simply because you “cater for all interests” is a poor and ethically weak justification, particularly when those interests involve animal cruelty.

Rory and his staff need to be better educated on this issue and, more importantly, need to learn how to accept constructive feedback without belittling or dismissing members who raise valid concerns. Your members are your bread and butter, and the tone and substance of that response has upset many people, not just us.

As a direct result of this interaction, myself and five others I know, who are all animal lovers and who have adopted rescue dogs over the years, have cancelled our memberships. This situation has already been shared across multiple groups, and I would not be surprised if you experience further backlash and additional cancelled memberships as a result.

Do better in the future. It feels as though Rory’s Travel Club has gotten too big for its boots, with the focus shifting toward expansion and “big bucks,” particularly with the move into London, at the expense of the values that once set it apart. If this is the approach you intend to take as you grow, you risk losing the loyal members who supported you from day one. The core values and principles that made Rory’s Travel Club unique are being eroded, and it is genuinely very sad to see.

I am posting this review out of sheer disgust and disappointment. I hope you take this feedback seriously and reflect on both the values you choose to promote and the way your team engages with the very members who sustain your business.

Our tour of Jordan was memorable
Saw a lot of the country with a great guide
Desert overnight in a very nice hotel- type of glamping but more up market
Petra was an amazing experience

Arrived back from an overnight stay on one of Rorys Travel Club deals and was writing a great review for the hotel when i realized i have not sent one for Rory’s Travel Club yet. Such a fantasic deal for €12 a year, i have availed of numerous of hotel deals in Ireland! My latest one, in the Glenroyal Hotel Maynooth. They went above and beyond! With the extra add on of prosecco in the room, the deals are too good to pass up. I look forward to seeing the emails come in :)

We availed of the RTC offer to the GlenRoyal Hotel Maynooth over the weekend and we couldn't fault it! From arrival to leaving the experience was second to none. The food was ab fab (dinner and breakfast). I will defintely be booking any further nights away through the RTC, well impressed!

Was waiting for email since the 30th of December for the family trip and received just a few emails but it was very expensive as it was for two adults and 1 child. Not worth it.

No clear communication on the transfer time back to the airport from the hotel. Reception didnt know, no notice or communication to the hotel or to our emails.

Some people were not added to the Whatsapp when they booked, even though it was requested when they initially paid.

A short briefing/communication to the group on the following morning after we arrived would have been very helpful. It would have helped people see who was in the group etc with an overview of good sights and recommended restsurants etc

Complete chaos on the night we arrived to Reception for check in. One person on duty, crazy slow. It must have taken some people 3 hours to get their rooms.

Hotel and staff in hotel very nice.

But I would not recommend Rorys Travels to anyone. Póilín Portlaoise

I have signed up and subscribed to this twice and still get no emails or any correspondence, won’t get caught again.
