The Old Course at St. Andrews is the most famous golf course in world golf and the Mecca to which every golfer aspires to make pilgrimage at least once in a golfing lifetime. The Swilcan Bridge and Hell Bunker are recognised across the globe, yet the greatest feature of the Old Course is that despite its grand status it remains a public golf course, open to all.
The Himalayas Putting Course

5.00Our guide Kenny was very knowledgeable and so kind. He knew all the great spots and was able to find fun for every member of our group. His lunch recommendation was fantastic and he even made reservations for us with the best table in the house and amazing views of The Old Course. Transportation was very comfortable and super clean. This tour was the highlight of our 2 week trip!

5.00We recently had an incredible opportunity to tour St. Andrews and Scotland with Gerry, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip! We visited the legendary St. Andrew links, local ruins, the picturesque countryside and seaside in between. Traveling from Glasgow, we were treated to the most stunning Scottish countryside and seaside. Gerry is an excellent driver, making our journey smooth, secure, safe, and enjoyable. We passed through meadows, dotted with sheep and cows, picturesque stone houses and fences, charming small towns, delightful fishing villages, distilleries, castles, historic ruins, golf enthusiast’s paradise, and even luscious strawberry fields. Every turn revealed another breathtaking scene, making the drive a highlight of the day. Gerry’s charisma and engaging manner made the tour not just informative but immensely enjoyable. His friendly demeanor, rooted in his Glaswegian background, made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout our trip. He answered all our questions with enthusiasm and tailored the experience to suit our interests, making our tour feel personal and special. The tour was flawlessly organized, from start to finish. Gerry’s careful planning ensured that we had ample time to appreciate each site without feeling rushed. He also provided thoughtful recommendations for local eateries, including dining on the 18th hole of the Old St. Andrews’s Golf Course, enhancing our overall experience. One of the crown jewels of our tour was the visit to the St. Andrews Old Golf Course. Gerry’s in-depth knowledge of the game and infectious passion for golf was captivating. Walking on the storied fairways, hearing about golf legends truly enhanced our experience. Gerry’s tour was nothing short of magical. For anyone visiting St. Andrews with a countryside and seaside drive, this tour with Gerry is an absolute must. His expertise, enthusiasm, and genuine love for Scotland turned a simple day into an extraordinary experience. Whether you are captivated by golf, history, or stunning Scottish landscapes, Gerry’s tour is sure to leave you with cherished memories. We can’t recommend him highly enough.

5.00Cici was our tour guide for this first class experience. She met us at Saint Andrews course and took us on a two hour amazing private tour of Saint Andrews, the university and the old course. Her knowledge and stories of old Saint Andrews were fascinating and entertaining. She was sensitive to our interests and catered the tour for us. She was worth every penny spent and would highly recommend this experience. We were a family of four traveling with two teenagers.
