Depart after breakfast and make the first stop of your tour at Erin Hills to tee off your adventure. Built across glacially carved terrain northwest of Milwaukee, Erin Hills is a course that’s as dramatic in its setting as it is in its design. Host to the US Open in 2017, it’s one of the youngest courses to do so. Routed through natural kettles, moraines and wetlands, it’s a walking-only course that strips the game back to its origins – wide fairways, sweeping views and a focus on shot-making over manicured perfection.
After your round, continue north to Kohler and check into The American Club, where the next three days will unfold on some of the most celebrated courses in the United States.
Travel time: Driving – approx. one hour

Awake for another day on the green at one of America’s most famous courses and one of few to achieve legendary status, Whistling Straits. Designed by Pete Dye to evoke the rugged links of the British Isles, the Straits Course sprawls across a bluff above Lake Michigan – expect uninterrupted lake views, rolling terrain and over a thousand bunkers.
The Straits has hosted three PGA Championships and the 2021 Ryder Cup, with players repeatedly describing it as both a masterpiece and a beast. Eight holes hug the lakeshore, and winds off the water demand constant adaptation. There are no trees, no shelters – only you, your swing and the elements – this is bucket-list golf.
After a challenging day, retreat to your hotel for a restful evening.

Set out after breakfast to practise your putt on another Pete Dye creation, the Irish Course. Though it doesn’t get the same limelight as the Straits, many who play both leave with a deep appreciation for the Irish’s varied layout and deceptive complexity. Four meandering streams, lush fescue and wide landing zones create a course that feels more serene – but still provides a challenge.
It’s a more protected round, less exposed to the brutal winds of the lake, but no less strategic. With fewer bunkers but more contouring, it rewards thoughtful positioning over brute power. Ranked among the top public courses in the US, the Irish proves Dye’s vision is world-class.

So nice it’s worth being played twice, enjoy another round after breakfast to get acquainted with the Whistling Straits. Seize the opportunity to approach its layout with fresh insight – you’ll now recognise how meticulously planned its routing is with the front and back nines forming figure-eights on the bluffs.
Where Jason Day won his first major in 2015, you’ll feel like a champion as you weave your way around the venue.
The evening is yours to enjoy.

Wave goodbye to the Whistling Straits as you depart Milwaukee for the Big Apple. A transfer will bring you to the airport, where you will make your own way via internal flight (at own expense).
On arrival, check into your hotel in the upper-west side. With Central Park, the American Museum of Natural History and the Lincoln Centre within walking distance, you’ll have time in the afternoon to explore your way, passing by charming brownstone buildings and landmarks along the way.
Spend the night at your leisure. You may wish to head out for a cocktail at a speakeasy, catch a show at the Beacon Theatre or simply take in the New York skyline from a rooftop bar.
Please Note: Internal fights are not included and must be booked separately, please see the Important Information Fine Print for more details.
Travel time: Flight – approx. 2.5 hours
Spend a full day exploring New York at your own pace – there’s no shortage of ways to soak in the city’s energy. Start the day with coffee and a bagel in Central Park, then head downtown to trace American history at the 9/11 Memorial or take in skyline views from the Edge or One World Observatory. Art lovers can wander the galleries of MoMA or the Met, while shoppers might prefer the boutiques of SoHo or the grand windows of Fifth Avenue.
For something more local, duck into the food stalls of Chelsea Market, stroll the High Line or take the subway to Brooklyn for vintage stores, breweries and waterfront views back toward Manhattan.
When evening falls, the city lights up. Catch a Broadway show, sip martinis at Bemelmans Bar or book a table in the West Village where candlelit restaurants line the cobbled streets.
