Detailed Description

The ball sits atop the tee and waits for your swing. The pin flutters in the distance as a beacon hundreds of yards away. Bunkers hide in the shadows of sloping hills flanking the fairway. You grip the club, set your feet, reach back, and swing. The ball sails over the manicured grass and bounces closer to the green. You can imagine the crowd clapping, cheering you on as you play. This custom tailored Scotland golf vacation tour of British Open clubs helps you experience the glory of historic design, legendary rounds, and exceptional victories.

Your luxury Scotland tour for golf begins with your arrival in Glasgow. The city is filled with a turn of the century charm that emanates a contemporary energy. Your private transfer meets you at the airport and takes you along the Firth of Clyde coastline to Turnberry. The remarkable resort offers spectacular views and splendid luxury on approximately 800 acres of land. You make your way to Prestwick and find its unique history vibrant and tangible. The first British Open was played on the club grounds in 1860.

Royal Troon has held the British Open on eight separate occasions. The distance to the green varies greatly because each hole offers a distinctive challenge for amateurs and professionals alike. The landscape around Ailsa Course is as spectacular as the course itself. Play along curving coastline filled with rocky outcroppings. Transfer to St. Andrews, the home of golf, and explore the charm and history of the city at your own pace. Carnoustie Course offers the challenge of its flat and open holes, leaving most of your shots open to the elements.

You calculate each swing to move the ball closer to the green. On the Old Course of St. Andrews you can feel the drama of history as you traverse the first golf course. In the same day you will play the New Course of St. Andrews, which carves through gorse bushes. Relax in the spa or around the plushness of your hotel before your private transfer escorts you to the airport for your flight home.
