About Guided Walks of the Old Course

A walking tour across one of golf's most storied links, led by someone who can point out the bunkers, burns and quirks that decades of play have made famous. Expect stories about the Road Hole, the Swilcan Bridge and the wide double greens that only make sense once you're standing on them. Saturday morning is a popular slot, so the group will likely include a mix of golf pilgrims and curious walkers with no clubs in sight. It's a slow-paced couple of hours on foot, best suited to those happy to stand still and listen.
