WIMBLEDON
& THE OLD COURSE 2023
HISTORIC AND MODERN GREATS HAVE
graced these capitals of tennis and golf. A natural pairing,
Wimbledon and St Andrews are the classic epicenters of
their sport, and it is our pleasure to host this unique journey
as we attend Championship weekend at Wimbledon and
play The Old Course at St Andrews.
We begin in London at the stylish and classic Brown’s
Hotel in Mayfair, the city's oldest hotel, ideally situated
to explore this wonderful neighborhood in close proximity
to Buckingham Palace, St. James's Park, Hyde Park and
a multitude of cultural and shopping venues. Brown’s is a
comfortable and exclusive home away from home.
On Monday, we fly to Edinburgh and transfer to St
Andrews, where we check in to the famous Old Course
Hotel, centrally located in St Andrews on the 17th fairway
of The Old Course. Over the next four days, we play
some of the finest golf in the world including Kingsbarns,
Carnoustie and The Old Course in partnership with our
friends at The Experience St Andrews, an Authorized
Provider of Old Course tee times.
Every detail has been taken care of during your stay,
from breakfast to a three-course lunch at Wimbledon and
transfers to and from the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
Our reserved seats at Centre Court on Saturday and
Sunday provide the perfect vantage point from which to see
the gentlemen’s and ladies' singles and doubles final matches.
An optional pre-tour to Sunningdale in Surrey, southwest
of London, offers play on both The Old Course and New
Course at Sunningdale.
This is truly the ultimate combination of exclusive sporting
venues, five-star service and accommodations.

Kingsbarns Golf Links
.......
July 10: London • St Andrews, Scotland
This morning, we fly from London City Airport to
Edinburgh, Scotland and transfer to St Andrews,
where we check in to the five-star Old Course Hotel
this afternoon.
Golf: The New Course at St Andrews
This challenging links course designed by Old Tom
Morris, nestled between the Jubilee Course and its
more famous neighbor, offers a wonderful introduction
to links golf. The prevailing wind guards the outward
loop, particularly on the seaside par three 9th. The New
Course is an ideal companion and practice round to The
Old Course as it traces a similar route, but with more
exposure to the sea.
Tour: Edinburgh
Before transferring to St Andrews, touring guests
explore Edinburgh, the royal and ancient capital of
Scotland, where old and new strike an ideal balance
for a wonderful day of discovery. We tour the cobbled
streets of the Royal Mile in the heart of medieval Old
Town up to Edinburgh Castle, the impressive home to
the Scottish crown jewels.
Overnight: The Old Course Hotel
.......
July 11: St Andrews
Golf: Kingsbarns Golf Links
One of the youngest courses to be ranked among the
top 100 in the world, Kingsbarns has absorbed the six
centuries of golf history that surround this links course.
Golfers have sea vistas from nearly every hole as they
play what is widely considered to be the most beautiful
course in St Andrews.
Tour: St Andrews & Kingsbarns Distillery
We take a guided walking tour to view St Andrews’
highlights, including its prestigious university and 12th
century cathedral. History and a sense of place are
strongly conveyed by the cobbled alleys and crooked
house fronts of this picturesque village. Afterwards, we
visit the Kingsbarns Distillery for a tour and lunch.

The Old Course at St Andrews ....... July 12: St Andrews Golf: Carnoustie Golf Links The game of golf has been played at Carnoustie for more than four centuries. Tom Morris extended the course to 18 holes in 1867, but it was James Braid who brought sweeping changes to the course in preparation for its first Open in 1931. Hogan’s Alley, the Spectacles Bunkers and the 17th hole, with its Barry Burn all make the “Angus Monster” one of the world’s most memorable and challenging Open venues. Tour: Food Tour of Fife Touring guests are in for a treat today as acclaimed Scottish chef, author and Fife food ambassador Christopher Trotter is our guide and companion for the day. Christopher’s talent for storytelling shines as he weaves tales of Scottish love of local food while introducing us to farmers and fishermen, cheesemakers and a chocolatier. It is sure to be an ideal day spent enjoying the tastes of Scotland, against the backdrop of some of the most picturesque, quaint locales in Fife. Overnight: The Old Course Hotel ....... July 13: St Andrews Golf: The Old Course at St Andrews Golf was first played on the hallowed grounds of The Old Course in the 1400s. Some 600 years later, The Old Course has hosted a remarkable 29 Open Championships, and will host its 30th in 2022. With features including 112 bunkers, the famous 17th “Road Hole” and a layout that starts and finishes in the town of St Andrews, The Old Course will challenge and please players with links golf in its purest form. Tour: Falkland Palace & The Peat Inn Our tour visits Falkland Palace, one of the finest examples of Renaissance architecture in Scotland, inspired by the grand châteaux of France. A retreat favored by the royal Stuarts, Falkland Palace was the residence of Mary, Queen of Scots, who enjoyed hunting, falconry and tennis on what is now the oldest tennis court in the world. We tour the impressive gardens and interiors before visiting the Michelin- starred Peat Inn for lunch on our way back to St Andrews. Overnight: The Old Course Hotel .......

ABOUT K ALOS GOLF
In 1994, Kalos Golf introduced the golf
cruise, a new concept in travel. Chartering
the Sea Cloud family of ships, we began
transporting golfers comfortably and stylishly
to the top courses in Europe. Our first clients
appreciated the exceptional service and
luxurious accommodations we offered, and the
golf cruise concept took off.
Since our founding, we have expanded our
selection of uniquely designed itineraries to
the finest golf and touring destinations around
the world by land and ship, by private jet and
chartered aircraft. In the process, we created
wonderful relationships with our loyal clients
and special memories with the more than
9,000 guests who have traveled with us.
Kalos Golf itineraries combine the best of
global golf and touring with five-star service,
whether by sea, air or land. We charter
vessels that accommodate a small number
of guests, and stay at unique and distinctive
boutique properties throughout our journeys.
In essence, these small groups become a
private club and create the perfect atmosphere
for an intimate travel experience.
In addition to great golf in historic locations,
we arrange daily tours for those not playing
golf. Whether attending acclaimed sporting
events or touring the cultural, historic and
culinary treasures of the areas we visit, our
expert guides and staff are on hand to ensure
a memorable journey.

GOLF’S FINEST TR AVEL EXPERIENCE
The truth about great international golf courses is that they are
typically in close proximity to fascinating cultural and historic
venues, immersed in unique landscapes ripe for discovery, making
our trips ideal for couples in which one spouse is a passionate
golfer, and one may rather tour. We dedicate as much purpose to
planning and executing our touring programs as we do our golf
line-up; no other golf tour operator can make this promise.
We know our clients demand stimulating experiences beyond
golf and strive to present our guests with a rich blend of choices
between golf and touring each day. Even the heartiest golfers
among our guests often remark, “it was tough to decide today
between the tour and the links.”
Each day, touring passengers will have the option to experience
fascinating cultural and historic or culinary and wine tours. On
some days, golfers and tour guests will spend the day touring
together and on others, they will get together for a private wine
tasting or tour after golf.
We challenge you to find a touring program with any other luxury
golf tour operator that is as robust, inclusive and exclusive as you
will find on a Kalos Golf tour.
