St. Andrews, in the Scottish Highlands, is the legendary birthplace of golf. During St. Andrews Golf Week, serious (and affluent) fans of the sport get to play a round each at St. Andrews two historic courses -- The Old Course, Dukes Course -- as well as a round at the three new courses, New Course, Jubilee Course and St Andrews Eden Course.

In addition to the golf, the six night packages for partipants in the event include bed and breakfast accommodation at a selection of participating hotels in the area, several dinners, golf instruction from well known pros and a banquet and awards dinner.

This is a great travel present for a very serious golfer.
