Golf
Where in the world would you like to golf?
Whether you are a scratch golfer looking for a new challenge on a world-renowned course or someone who would like to combine a little golf with your vacation travels, Young Travel & Cruises can take you there. See the destinations below for a sampling of some outstanding golf getaways.
Golf in Ireland
This is a one-week trip to some wonderful courses in Ireland where you can also partake of their delicious food, whiskey, and Guiness, hosted by two outstanding golfers, Dr. Bill Lovett, championship winner from Naples, FL, and PGA Pro, Bucky Ayers of Auburn, AL.
Scotland
And then there is Scotland.........home of golf and St. Andrews, the bagpipes, the clans and the tartans, Robert the Bruce and Mary Queen of Scots, the Highlands and the Borders, castles, crags, salmon and haggis, Edinburgh and the Military Tatto. Scotland has always been the feisty one that stood alone and fought for everything they could find any reason to fight.....and if England went one way, they naturally went the other. It was only because the last Tudor, Elizabeth I, died without an heir, that they ever agreed on anything, and James I became ruler of both England and Scotland.

Our house was full of trophies that my father had won. We would go to weekend tournaments during the school year, and week long tournaments in the summer, and we became familiar with the top courses in the south, and met many of the top pros that Daddy had played with. I started going to the Masters with him when I was twelve years old. And then my brother started playing, too, and he soon became a scratch golfer. Today, I cherish the memories, and make pilgrimages to Scotland and to St. Andrews, and have fun booking other golfers to these hallowed grounds of Scotland, England, Ireland, and other favorites throughout the world. We offer packages with the golf courses and tee times, transportation, hotels, and flights, if needed. We book tours for golfers only, or for couples who will have a varied itinerary of golf and sightseeing. And we can book castles and villas! Great golf destinations in addition to Scotland, England, Ireland and Wales are France, Spain, Portugal, Australia, South Africa and many other courses throughout the world for an occasional game of golf.
