“We just returned from an Irish Highlights tour and it was superb! Our travel director and driver were the BEST!... Truly a trip of a lifetime. Brendan took care of the planning so we could sit back and enjoy!

Scottish Kilts & Clubs

The guys played golf five times in 10 days and were ecstatic, especially after playing at St. Andrews, the pinnacle of the trip for them… It is an experience I will never forget.
