Overview
On this 17-night escorted tour you will play the best courses in Denmark and Sweden, travel to an island archipelago in Finland to pay one of Finland's best courses, and fly north to the amazing Lofoten Links in Norway, considered to be one of the most breathtaking places to play golf in the world.
The tour begins in Copenhagen, with games at Great Northern GC (number 1 in Denmark) and The Scandinavian Old & New Course, where the Old Course is rated number 2 in Denmark.
You then head into Sweden where you visit stunning golf resorts such as PGA Sweden and Sand, and stay 2 nights in the heart of Stockholm playing nearby courses and enjoying a half day of sightseeing.

"Rory handles everything in his stride. He is so calm and collected in the organisation of the trip and everyone adores him. He is a great golfer and we are all in awe of him." Brad Wisconsin USA 2025
"After filling out the form online, I was contacted by Rory Wood and instantly impressed about his organization and plan for this trip. My only responsibility was to arrive in Liverpool at the beginning of the trip. After that, Rory took care of the rest. The accommodations were first class, the itinerary well organized, and the golf . . . well, that speaks for itself. I did not know anyone participating in this trip prior to arrival in Liverpool. As it turns out, I was the only non-Australian in the group. Rory and the rest of the participants could not have made me feel more welcome, or as they would like to say, “one of the mates.” I now have made lifelong friends and I look forward to meeting up with them again." Peter USA 2022, Open Rota
