<p><br /><br />PerryGolf offers golf and travel experiences to eleven of the world's most memorable destinations: Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, New Zealand, Australia and South Africa.
</p><p>
Completely customized itineraries are the Company's particular expertise providing the seamless arrangement of golf, accommodation and local transportation.
</p><p style="clear:both"> </p>
<table class="emtable">
<tr>
<td class="t" colspan="4">SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="d" colspan="4">
Play 2011 Scottish Open Host Castle Stuart</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Scottish Highlands & Aberdeen 2012 ~ Royal Dornoch, Castle Stuart, Royal Aberdeen
</th><td>6 Nights </td><td> 5 Rounds </td><td>
 
A journey to the Highlands is always rewarded with wonderful Royal Dornoch. Nearby favorites Nairn and Brora are like ice cream with your cake, as are Royal Aberdeen and Cruden Bay on the way in or out. Better still, new Scottish Open host Castle Stuart is only 10 minutes from the Inverness airport.  You will have your golf shoes on an hour after you get to Scotland.</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="t" colspan="4">SCOTLAND &amp; ENGLAND</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="d" colspan="4">Five British Open Venues from Troon to Liverpool</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">2012 Rota Tour ~ Royal Troon to Royal Liverpool
</th><td>6 Nights </td><td> 5 Rounds</td><td>
 
If you have a thing for playing major championship venues, here's five: Royal Troon, Ailsa at Turnberry, Royal Birkdale, Royal Liverpool, Royal Lytham & St Annes (2012 host and site of Seve's 1979 win from the car park). Better still, all are found within just 157 miles of each other along Britain's west coast!</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="t" colspan="4">WALES &amp; LONDON</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="d" colspan="4">A PerryGolf &amp; Heritage Experience for Couples</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">South Wales, Berkshire &amp; London ~ Walton Heath to Windsor Castle
</th><td>8 Nights </td><td> 4 Rounds </td><td>
 
This eight night four round tour beginning at the Celtic Manor in Wales and concluding in central London combines great links like Royal Porthcawl and parkland layouts like Walton Heath with British heritage like UNESCO site Bath and Windsor Castle. This is an ideal itinerary for four couples in a VIP Golf Coach with a concierge Driver/Guide.</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="t" colspan="4">THE OLD COURSE IN APRIL</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="d" colspan="4">Limited availability.</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">St Andrews in April 2012 ~ The Old Course (Guaranteed), Carnoustie & Kingsbarns 
</th><td>6 Nights </td><td> 5 Rounds </td><td>
 
When you play the Old Course in April (with a guaranteed tee time) you get to brag about it all summer long! Carnoustie and Kingsbarns are also among the five rounds included plus you can expect the warmest of welcomes and the luxurious amenities of the Fairmont St Andrews hotel. Availability is limited to the first eight bookings of four golfers.</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="t" colspan="4">NORTHERN IRELAND</td>
</tr><tr>
<td class="d" colspan="4">$2,990 per Golfer for Self Drive with Party of 4</td>
</tr><tr>
<th scope="row">Northern Ireland 2012 ~ Royal County Down, Royal Portrush & Ballyliffin 
</th><td>6 Nights </td><td> 5 Rounds </td><td>
 
Royal County Down is Golf Magazine's World #5; Royal Portrush is World #13. Its hard to imagine why Ballyliffin isn't ranked (yet) but it certainly suits Rory McIlroy's eye; he holds the course record of 67 at the club he visited just days after his US Open victory.
