Day 1 - Journey to St. Andrews: A Blend of History and Golf
Welcome to Scotland! Arrive into Edinburgh (or Glasgow) airport and meet your dedicated driver-guide for the week. He will take you north to your first hotel in St. Andrews.
Legend claims that the town was so called because it harboured the relics of St. Andrew, which were brought here by a bishop, St. Rule, from Patras in Achaea. Prior to being called St Andrews, the earliest recorded name was the Gaelic, Cennrígmonaid. Nowadays, locals sometimes refer to it as 'auld grey toon'.
Check into your elegant room and unwind after your journey. Perhaps wander down the street and pay a visit to the R&A’s World Golf Museum.
