Everything you hope for in a golf travel experience
The Experience Golf got us tee times on the courses we hoped to play, provided reliable transportation and drivers who focused on making it easy and enjoyable, and recommended hotels that were clean, comfortable, and conveniently located. Their staff was professional and polite. I highly recommend them.

Your made the trip stress free for the travelers; our daily schedule was well articulate, our clubs and luggage were always looked after, and we really just had to show up, play golf, eat and have fun. We were pampered.

Overpriced
I felt that The Experience Golf was overpriced for the package delivered. We experienced several billing issues and mistakes. On a couple of occasions we determined to cancel extras due to the price and then the company came back to us with reduced offers. Also, we asked for a second transfer van at the end of our trip and were presented with an add-on to get this service. Based upon what we had already paid—nearly $100,000) I felt that a $750 add-on for a small service was unprofessional.

Knocked it out of the park!
Simply put . . . Deb and Steve and the rest of The Experience team are spot on the only way I will return to St Andrews.

The tour leader, Deborah and assistant Steve were fabulous
The very pleasant leadership and organizational skill of Deborah and Steve was amazing. Things operated like clockwork even though there were 40 "guests" to coordinate. Nothing to criticize but maybe a couple suggestions/thoughts on the itinerary. My wife wanted a bit shorter tours. Could there be a later departure for those with afternoon flights out?
The guys kilt dress up was a hoot and the greeting by the Scottish band prior to the farewell dinner was awesome.

The Experience Scotland
We had a great time and organization from The Experience was very good both with golf courses and transfers.
The only thing I did not like was my room in Gleaneagles. Too small and interior sight.

Thank you for your kind words Robert, we are so glad you enjoyed your trip. We hope to welcome you on one of ours tours again in the future.
this is our second time!
This is the second time I’ve used The Experience to plan our trip. Everyone was very attentive to our needs and the courses we wanted to play. They even booked travel for a travel day to tour Glenturret Distillery in Perth.
Norm, the driver that toted us to all the courses could not have been more accommodating! I, and my buddies that went, have been telling everyone who to use for travel if/when they go!
If you’re going all the way to Scotland to play golf, use The Experience and guarantee a tee time on the Old Course. Worth every penny!

High Quality Experience Delivered By Folks Who Really Seemed to Care
High quality product delivered by folks who really seemed to care about the service they provided. The courses we played were magnificent, and we had great tee-times and super caddies. (I cannot imagine doing this without caddies.)
Staying full-time at the Old Course Hotel was the icing on the cake. Wonderful service, top location, and super views of the Old Course
