Additional Information
Dublin, Ireland
It's easy to fall for charming, crazy, colorful Dublin. The laid-back Irish capital is
a somehow harmonious blend of Victorian pubs, rows of elegant Georgian town
houses in silvery stone, and glittering modern buildings. With a permanent
population of nearly 1.7 million; more than a third of the Irish people either live
in or near this city, which explains the great restaurants, bars, and shopping
opportunities. Get ready to have a good time.
Edinburgh, Scotland
Earthy yet stylish, and casually cosmopolitan, Edinburgh is as proud of its
medieval cobbled alleyways as its famous edgy Fringe Festival when the world
descends on its pleasure palaces. But it's not all about the crowds: Blessed with
an outstanding array of scenery, Scotland's capital drapes over seven hills and
is crowned by Edinburgh Castle, a dramatic and brooding landmark, with the
bucolic Princes Street Gardens running through the city center.
Sightseeing / Golf
Enjoy exploring the cities with professionally guided tours as well as sample
some local food, wine, whiskey and beer. You’ll have some time to explore on
your own and visit points of interest. AIST will included additional sightseeing
options such as wine tastings or other tour excursions depending on the
interest of the group. 3 Rounds of golf are included in the Golfers Ground
Package. For Non-Golfers, the 3 rounds are replaced with excursions to
Glendalough, Stirling Castle and Glasgow.
British Open Tickets
Tickets for the open are not included. Consider joining the Open’s One Club for
priority access when the tickets are released on general sale. It is free to join, here is
