      This was a first for me! When I first saw there was a possibility to choose a package deal through Voyages, I researched the company; found out they were highly recommended & highly reviewed, so I contacted them. Harry answered me, & I worked with him from start to finish. He was an exceptional tour guide. He made all the transfers, accommodations, golf times, & Open tickets for me & my son. I had to make a few adjustments along the way, & Harry took care of them ease & professionalism. I definitely recommend using Voyages Travel for your next thrilling adventure!

      Very customer focused and responsive to all our questions. The trip turned out fantastic – not a single wrinkle to speak of. All transports were there on time from the pickup at the airport, through 5 rounds of golf and the final drop off at the end of our trip. Drivers were always helpful and provided suggestions for places to eat and drink. Courses were all great and no issues with the team times. Harry sent over a greatly appreciated care package that we all enjoyed. Overall, we had a great time and appreciate the service and expertise we received from Voyages.”

      – Joe Peraino, PA

      “Great tour for the The Open at Royal Troon. Highly recommend Voyages. Well organized, excellent accommodation, very good selection of golf courses played. Glenn, Gayle and Harry, the owners and tour organizer’s super fun family, very friendly to all the group and always helpful for whatever requests were asked. Very quick to respond to any situation so every day was pretty seamless as we travelled from Edinburgh to Troon and then St Andrews over 2 weeks. Great trip, thanks guys.

      – Roger Tarrant, Canada

      Voyages.golf was recommended to me thru the R&A for the Open Championship. I am very pleased I chose them to handle my vacation details. They offered a great package to tie in with my Open tickets, allowing me to go about with my plans while they took care of all the details from Hotel and transfers to/from Open venue. I even added on additional vacation details which they handled and everything went off without any issues. Voyages.golf kept me up to date with all details and any changes that arose. From start to end, they were on top of all details and I would highly recommend them to anyone interested.
