This relaxing ladies escorted golf tour of The Iberian Peninsula will let you discover rugged coastal beauty, hillside vineyards, historic towns and villages and a cornucopia of amazing golf courses. Staying in 5 star hotels and resorts for the duration of the tour we will be touring in style. The concentration of the best golf courses on The Iberian Peninsula, very much follows its southerly coastline, which is the route that we will be taking. Starting from Portugal s enchanting capital city of Lisbon, following the Atlantic shore south to The Algarve, then crossing into Spain and continuing to The Mediterranean Sea and the Costa del Sol. We will fully explore the vibrant city of Lisbon, one of the oldest cities in the world, which perfectly reflects the Portuguese way of life, embracing modern culture whilst maintaining its unique heritage and traditions. On the Algarve Coast, we will savour the smells and the tastes of the place: the sweet miasma of the orange groves, the heady scent of the wine cellars, the smoky aroma of chicken roasting on coals, and the sharp tang of the fish markets down by the sea. On the sun-drenched Costa del Sol, we ll relax by the blue Mediterranean waters, stroll along the promenade while savouring the specialities in the local restaurants. The golf courses that we will be playing on this tour are some of the most picturesque in Europe. This tour will provide the perfect setting for us to perfect our swing. Olé!

Group transfer to the hotel Check In: Porto Bay Liberdade Hotel 5* 3 nights Classic Room This new five-star hotel in Lisbon is 60 metres from Avenida da Liberdade, the most luxurious avenue in Portugal. The hotel is a pleasant tree lined walk (along typically Portuguese white limestone cobbled pavements) from some of the main tourist attractions in the city of Lisbon: Rossio, Praça do Comércio, Chiado and Bairro Alto. This boutique hotel has an indoor swimming pool and gymnasium, amazing spa treatment rooms, sauna and Turkish steam bath. Evening: Welcome drinks and canapes Wednesday 13 th June 2018 Golf at Penha Longa Golf Club with shared motorised carts For our first round of golf, we will play one of many fantastic courses in Portugal designed by Robert Trent Jones Jnr. Penha Longa is a glorious 18 holes, sculptured amongst the verdant mountains of Sintra. The rolling hills offering an alluring landscape. The short Par 5 6th Hole is decorated by an ancient Aqueduct at the back of the green and guarded at the front of the green by a lake. The finishing holes are excellent, notably the stunning 16th from the elevated tee the view is spectacular as the hole is all before you.

3 Thursday 14 th June 2018 Walking Tour of Lisbon This Lisbon Old Town Walking Tour will take you through the origins of Lisbon, behind the city walls and inside the Alfama district. The Phoenicians, the Romans and the Arabs, all settled here at one time or another, leaving their distinct mark. The inhabitants of the old district of Alfama, sitting on the hill facing the river, maintain a unique lifestyle, with a strong sense of community, influenced by an urban density and the narrowness of the streets, making this neighbourhood a small village inside the big city. The perfect place to explore on foot. Friday 15 th June 2018 This morning we will check out of our hotel and transfer to the beautiful Algarve, stopping on the way to play golf. We will reach the club via a lovely short ferry crossing from Setubal to the Peninsula of Troia. Golf at Troia Golf Club with shared motorised carts This course is set on gently undulating sandy land bordering the sea on the Troia Peninsula, south of Lisbon. The 368m par 4 3 rd hole is one of the finest sea holes in Portugal, and there are numerous other outstanding holes on this lovely course. This is a course where the elements play a huge part. The fairways are narrow and if you miss them they are lined with sand and shrubs. The small greens are well protected by deep bunkers and demand well struck approach shots. This naturally rugged 18 holes is truly a course for the connoisseurs. After golf we will transfer to Vilamoura on the Algarve (approx. 2hrs) and check in to our luxurious 5 star resort.

4 Check In: The Lake Spa Resort 5* - 4 nights Garden Room This five-star resort offers a spectacular and secluded setting just a few steps away from the gorgeous sandstone Algarve coastline, six quality golf courses and a beautiful marina. The Resort and Spa boasts a private sea water lake and a unique natural sand bottom pool, an unmatched garden designed with plants from the five continents and a choice of three large swimming pools for you to enjoy. Indulge yourself with a treatment at the wonderful SPA and be delighted by the wonderfully diverse flavours offered in its restaurants and bars. Saturday 16 th June 2018 Golf at Quinta Do Lago South with shared motorised carts This is one of Europe s finest courses and it is easy to see why it is immensely popular. Situated on fabulous rolling terrain ideal for golf, the course has been carefully blended into the beautiful natural surroundings. Within the superb tree lined layout of the course are numerous hazards, some very subtly woven into the course. Water has been used sparingly, but intelligently, especially on the 3rd Hole. One of the joys of the South course s design is its playability for all standards of golfer. A must play course.

5 Sunday 17 th June 2018 Private Boat Cruise of the Algarve Coast with Lunch Today we will relax in the Mediterranean Sun while sailing aboard our own private yacht. Sailing along the Algarve coastline, with its beautiful rock formations, caves and beaches, we will visit some of the most remote and secluded parts of the sunny Algarve. We will anchor on a secluded beach for a BBQ lunch and to explore the most beautiful caves and rock formations of the region. There will be time for swimming, and relaxing in the sun as we admire the varied landscape of the southern coast of Portugal. Monday 18 th June 2018 Golf at Monte Rei Golf Club with shared motorised carts and Tapas Lunch This Jack Nicklaus signature course is now the jewel in the Algarve s golfing crown. The clubhouse, facilities and the service you receive make it a day to remember. Sculptured over some wonderful natural golfing land, it offers beautifully manicured fairways, large deep crystal white bunkers, natural and manmade water hazards and slick undulating greens. Each hole a design gem blending effortlessly into this natural canvas. Consistently ranked No 1 in Portugal and amongst the best in Europe by many leading publications.

6 Tuesday 19 th June 2018 This morning we will check out of our hotel and transfer to the beautiful Costa del Sol in Spain, stopping on the way to explore Seville (approx. 5hr) Check In: Hotel Fuerte Marbella 4* - 4 Nights Classic Room The luxury Marbella hotel is in the heart of the Costa del Sol, and situated right on the beach so you can easily move between the luxurious pool area and the beach bar and restaurant. When the need to shop and sightsee hits, take a short five minute walk into town where you ll will find plenty of shops and other attractions. If you wish to take a break from the bustling town of Marbella, the hotel is surrounded by 4,000 square metres of lush gardens and is also in close proximity to some of the best golf courses in the region. Wednesday 20 th June 2018 Golf at Santana Golf Club with shared motorised carts One of the newest courses on The Costa del Sol again built on an old Avocado plantation. Just enough of the trees have been removed to shape the holes superbly whilst still retaining the feel that the golf course has been here for years. Deceptively generous fairways and excellent putting surfaces are guarded by cleverly positioned bunkers. This beautiful enclave is home to many eucalyptus, orange and lemon trees, cactus, pines, fig trees, olive and mango trees together with a varied population of indigenous birds, including the calzada eagle. The cork oaks along the 5th hole deserve special mention, as they have been present here for more than 500 years.

7 Thursday 21 st June 2018 Golf at Finca Cortesin Golf Club with shared motorised carts This Cabell Robinson designed course is simply spectacular and captures the natural essence of the surrounding area. Finca Cortesin is ranked in the top 5 golf courses in Spain by the Golf World Magazine, and US Masters champion Sergio Garcia compared the greens with those at Augusta National for their quality and speed when he played here. The service, clubhouse and grounds are the epitome of style and luxury, so it is the perfect fit for the last course of the tour. Friday 22 nd June 2018 Day at Leisure OPTIONAL Málaga Day Tour Málaga is a world apart from the adjoining Costa del Sol: a historic and culturally rich provincial capital that has rapidly emerged as the province's city of culture with its so-called 'mile of art' being compared to Madrid, and its dynamism and fine dining to Barcelona. The tastefully restored historic centre is a delight: its Gothic cathedral is surrounded by narrow pedestrian streets flanked by traditional and modern bars, and shops that range from idiosyncratic and family owned, to urban-chic and contemporary. Evening: Farewell Dinner
