We paid for Mark to drive us round some features of the area because most of the tours were cancelled due to Covid 19. So glad we did. It was brilliant even though the weather wasn't good. Mark is interesting and funny and did above and beyond - even dropping us off in another place for us to explore. I would highly recommend Mark.

Portstewart Golf Club

Reviewed By grantloree - Toronto, Canada

i played Portstewart golf course for the second time and reconfirmed my thoughts that it is truly the finest front 9 on the planet--the sand dunes, the elevation changes, the conditioning, the routing and diversity of the holes were truly world class--i've played over 50 of the top 100 in the world so my benchmark is fairly high--the Irish Open will be a huge success there in my view--plus the back 9 continues to evolve and improve--this course is a must for any true golfer--plus the people were wonderful--a real treat

We arrived early to walk this route as we were warned it can get busy. Thankfully it was a lovely day. The route is well sign posted and we used the audio guide which is very easy to use. Some of the info about the first guides and the hotels etc is interesting. This is at the end of the audio recording so don't miss it. Fantastic views and they have different routes geared to easy to difficult. Great walk, we thoroughly enjoyed it.
