Itinerary

Day 1
Start with a 4 night stay on the charming and historic Lisbon Coast

Day 2
Play Praia d’El Rey Course
Renowned golf architect, Cabell B. Robinson, viewed being asked to design the Praia d’El Rey golf course as the opportunity of a lifetime. This is the kind of landscape architects try to create, but at Praia d’El Rey it’s all here, naturally. It is certainly one of the most picturesque layouts in Europe, set in extensive grounds of pine forest and majestic sand-dunes, running along a pristine white sand beach with spectacular views over the Atlantic to Portugal’s Berlenga Islands beyond.

Day 3
Play Penha Longa Atlantic Course
Designed by international golf architect Robert Trent Jones, the course contains all the features of a designer whose work has hosted two World Cups. The holes near the clubhouse follow the valley area, winding past mature pines and granite rocks. Other holes follow higher ground in the foothills below Sintra, with superb views down to the resort town of Cascais and the Atlantic Ocean. Undulating and testing with a number of doglegs, the course has been carefully integrated into the natural surroundings to maintain a harmony with nature.

Day 4
Play Oitavos Dunes Course
A spectacular cliff-top design from Arthur Hills and a regular host to The Portuguese Open, Oitavos is not only ranked among Portugal’s top courses, but is also one of the best in Europe. Stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean to one side and the Sintra Mountains to the other, this handsome layout with its links-like characteristics, is tough and unforgiving to the extreme. Even accomplished players will need their A-game and high handicappers will be well advised to play from the forward tees. A stern examination of golf to be savored and enjoyed by the true connoisseurs of the game.

Day 5
Continue on your journey with a 3 night stay in the sunny Algarve

Day 6
Play Monte Rei Course
Sitting on a thousand acre estate of stunning Algarvean countryside, Monte Rei is an eye-dazzler to behold. There are spectacular mountain views and sea-scapes to take your breath away and a course that will beguile with its handsome good looks, but still demand you prove your worth with golfing skills that extend way beyond the average, especially when approached from the back tees. This Jack Nicklaus design opened in 2007 and in true Nicklaus style, is void of any trickery, taking a, what you see is what your get, approach. Plenty of tee positions bring this layout within the playing abilities of most, providing the appropriate tees are used.

Day 7
Play Vilamoura Victoria Course
Opened in September 2004 and designed by Arnold Palmer, this existing championship resort course is unequivocally Mr. Palmer’s best international architectural accomplishment ever. Taking a relatively flat piece of terrain, Palmer has sculpted a layout filled with character that is not only stunningly handsome, but also presents a seemingly endless variety of challenges. With more than enough muscle and a hefty 7,174 yards to test the most accomplished player from the back tees. A choice of 5 different tee positions can shrink Portugal’s longest course to a more modest 6,200 yards and for the ladies, 5,200 yards. But don’t think that moving to the front tees transforms The Victoria into a cakewalk — most high handicappers will still be confronted with a rather serious examination of their golfing skill.

Day 8
Play Penina Championship Course
This championship course, The Algarve’s first, was designed by three time British Open champion, Sir Henry Cotton in 1966 and has been highly rated by the golfing fraternity ever since. Essentially flat, it requires substantial, but accurate tee shots from the good player to equal par, with its range of ditches, water hazards and sand, all strategically positioned. The elevated greens, always kept in excellent condition, hold very well with true surfaces that encourage aggressive play.

Day 9
